richyy66 Posted December 27, 2022 Report Share Posted December 27, 2022 Every club will sack a Manager when results and performances have dropped off. I am not saying we should hire Dean Smith but not so sure why our club are reluctant to get rid. I have supported Pearson since he came and thought he would be a good fit. Its just not working out and think nows the time to say Goodbye to Nige. He is certainly not doing himself any favours at the minute. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But wasn't that recruitment, we've just publicly said how good it is having Tinnion doing that following his success with the academy, are we going to now say that was a mistake before a single transfer window?

robinforlife2 Posted December 27, 2022 Report Share Posted December 27, 2022 Norwich, 5th in the league sack there manager. Meanwhile here at Bristol City, Nigel Pearson with a 26% win rate, can't win at home, can't play players in their correct positions, seems to be unsackable. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason we keep Managers when they are failing is due to Steve Lansdown. He will keep Pearson until we are in the relegation zone or start getting heavily beaten at home. Otherwise he will let Pearson blunder on and on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You haven’t heard of parachute payments, have you? Norwich rightly expect to get promoted every time they go down, their wage bill is £33m & Pukki is on £47k a week. The only similarity with us is we’re in the same division. 24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He spent training sessions on the grass with Nige and CS. As did Rennie too. Walsh had Mackenzie doing the technical scouting. I honestly don’t know what actual scouting they had.

They posted a profit in 2021 that wipes out the loss of 2022, let alone FFP allowable losses and Covid allowances. They have huge FFP headroom and a good squad too, inc two players that cost £10m combined in the summer. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right he wouldn’t come here now with the dire financial situation we are in. I’ve said it many times before on this forum but when are stock was at the highest it has been in long long time (2017 to the summer of 2019 ish) we could have had the pick of many managers IMO. As we all know the Lansdown family spectacularly backed the wrong Horse in the Ashton/Johnson regime and let the numpties spunk away millions and millions. We now find ourselves in the situation we are in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, because the ambitions of both clubs, the problems their managers are trying to resolve, and their ability to address those problems, are so similar aren't they? **** me. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
