Time will tell won’t it. It’s not impossible that he improves us. I could mention tons and tons of underwhelming managerial appointments that ended up well. Not least the current spurs and Villa managers. Both sets of fans were underwhelmed Edited October 31, 2023 by And Its Smith 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top Robin Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 I knew nothing about Eustace before, apart from the fact that his Birmingham team totally outplayed us twice and looked like a really well drilled unit. If you bother to read up on the bloke you may find some information which could make you think that he perhaps isn't that bad an appointment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I the only one? Maybe they are actual fans that have read the forum for a while and fancied putting their opinion in, or they could be gas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrs Court Red Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 I had a text earlier saying it’s Eustace. I can see the appeal from both parties if I’m honest. Eustace moves straight back into Championship and Lansdown gets his young coach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people are very pro Pearson on her and I understand that I just think he was a tad overrated on the pitch. You are?

RedRoss Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 I understand the frustration with Nige unfairly leaving but some posters really need confine that to the 101 other ongoing topics right now. We need to give JE or whoever gets the job our full support. Who knows if he'll be a 'puppet' or a 'downgrade' ect. Let's give the guy a chance atleast.

I bloody hate this club sometimes. Yes but we all know Nige’s dismissal has got f all to do with football , totally personal If it’s Eustace write ups say organised and good football, we will see 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bristol red Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 Top 6 or out? I thought the remit was promotion? Oh and no need to bring in any new players as we already have them waiting (playing in the youth teams the same way as you will be playing) so definitely ready for the premier league! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the eff do we know whether Eustace is good or bad or better or worse than Nige before he's even appointed? It's speculation. It's bitterness. It's silly. If he has the job then he's our Manager and should have at least one game before spleen venting. IMO ( and that of James Piercy) BCFC are a very attractive club and a really great opportunity for the new man. It seems like some think the football world should shun the job in sympathy for Nige. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fisherrich Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 1 hour ago, maxjak said: If this is true? What a let down. A club like ours should be casting its net widely all over Europe to find a young progressive tracksuit coach, like a Farke or Frank type (Yes i know that is a cliche).....but that is exactly what this club needs? Instead we take the easy option off of the merry go round of sacked managers.....no ambition no foresight? If we were intending to get rid of NP, why didn't we spend a few months looking at possible replacements, vetting them, researching them, and talking to candidates? Instead it's a case of who's out of job, and is gonna be grateful to be employed, and lets make sure he is a YES man who won't upset anyone? It is all so very tedious IMO. A yes man, hence he gets the job, ridiculous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 I'll be honest I googled one or two names and Bristol Sport and there is or was a Gabriella listed as Bristol Sport but at the same time could be coincidence, Les or whoever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
