Ageee. Shame it took too long for it.

Started around about the time we took the lead didn't it?

Great from the crowd to sing Pearons name. 

 

Did they ever sing his name when he was manager?

I'm sure I saw Steve singing "Jon Lansdown out" and at one point he definitely was singing "I don't know what I'm doing".

If only. He wasn't even at the match today. Not that this is unusual btw.

He was. In a bright red coat and a city scarf (so hardly trying to go unnoticed) in his Dad's box. Flanked by Lisa Knights and Mark Kelly amongst others. 

Did you say "flanked"?

Exactly, it’s the same football as Pearson! I’ve no idea why people have this idea that we were playing tika taka football under him, it’s bizarre.

Who said we were playing “tika taka”?

Correct, you have no idea. Who has said we're playing tika-taka?

No anti Lansdown chants as far as I know. Fans are so placid nowadays 

Nothing to have stopped you , if you felt so strongly about it 

[JoeAman08]

Pearson gone singing was embarrassing. Then slagging off the man who pays the bills son because he didn’t accept mid table mediocrity. We don’t deserve better with attitudes like that. 
 

For the game. No red would have meant no points. Scraped by bottom of the league with one win after they played with 10 for an hour. Awful football again but fair play to Fleming making attacking changes that I am sure his predecessor would not have made. Well done Curtis Flemings cider army

Certainly wasn’t the Ali Hines’ high press intense attacking football that Tinman promised us was it. 

Give it a chance he hasn’t been told who the manager is yet,when he has he will be a company man and talk some more nonsense

Honestly the football is ******* dire 

The way Pearson was treated and how it was handled was a disgrace - but - let’s be honest, the football is dreadful and has been for some time 

Just what will you do on a Saturday when we are winning everything?

Well fingers crossed we lose eh? 

Oh! Dear Never Mind

Except that it was a regular occurrence for NP to change the front three, at about 60 mins.

Why because I didn’t like awful football and finishing 16th? Sorry no one grown enough for differing opinions around here. Sheep spring to mind

A Mr Pearson inspired trio of substitutions gives Mr Fleming the win. 3 points.

Except that he was keeping Mehmeti from minutes and keeping the dire Weimann on often. Benching Bell was a bit of genius too and having him as the impact player off the bench. Well done Curtis

[Numero Uno]

Going by all the moaning today anyone could be forgiven that due to financial restrictions we have a squad that works hard but lacks quality. Obviously that’s not the case, just need a new Manager to come in, spend no money and turn it round over the international break. Piece of piss.

He's our equivalent of the Scarlett Pimpernel.

They seek him here, they seek him there.

Would be great if he disappeared for ever.

Saw today we have some quality if used correctly. This isn’t the lower half of the table side NP made it look. So excited for the future

A wins a win but christ that was dire.

Who cares? Winning was the important factor after this week cut some slack for once.

[bcfc01]

Enjoyed the game, City played well imo. and not sure why some are saying it was rubbish - it really wasn't. I liked the crisp passing and the patient build ups, no hopeless long balls. 

Bell should have got the second with no doubt about it - it was a pathetic miss, would have made the game a lot easier and put us under a bit of pressure late on.

Well pleased with the performance and the 3 points.

But its the style of football all season, win is need but you will lose more than win when that's the level you play at

Hoping we will get a manager who will actually get the best out of this squad 

Pearson didn’t - and he wouldn’t have either
