desertfox2 Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 Yeah have to say I felt a lot of sympathy for Pearson with the way Murphy was going on at him... Nige has put himself in the firing line though... All that crap about being a bully. Murphy was bear baiting, plain an simple. He knew pearson couldn't storm out or react and used that to turn the knife... anyway bring on newcastle
Strokes Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 I couldn't give a toss about these press conferences and Pearsons responses. But it's funny how tribal football fans can still be at times - Our manager = right, journalists = wrong, other clubs' managers who behave in a similar way = arrogant twats. If you can't be tribal when following a football club, when can you?
Strokes Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 A chance for Pearson lovers to defend him. All jokes aside, I'm not a Pearson fan you hid that well
UpTheLeagueFox Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 Pearson got it very wrong with the press last night but got it very right today.
CheshireFox Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 https://audioboom.com/boos/3135892-xfm-breakfast-with-tim-cocker-nigel-pearson-s-ostrich-rant too many pages to scroll through since I last looked this morning- posting this in case it hasnt been seen yet, apologies if its on a previous page
orangecity23 Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 Wow, Pat Murphy is such a tool, crying all his crocodile tears because someone called his friend an Ostrich. Seems to me like a great number of people in the press (obviously not Geoff P, top chap) need to grow up a bit. Instead of having an intelligent media asking questions worth asking, to uncover facts worth hearing about, we've got a bunch of hyper sensitive babies trying to stir up playground level nonsense so they can beat themselves into a fury of offended faux piety. Also, the FOAD episode is the biggest mountain out of a molehill crock of shit in football. Why didn't Nigel apologise to the fan? Because he didn't deserve it. If you spend all game hurling personal abuse in someones face, you fully deserve a small taste of your own medecine for being such a **** in the first place.
LCFC FOX Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 Pat Murphy what a willy puller what a willy puller
Raj Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 NP seemed out of order last night,but he apologised directly to the journo involved so that should have been that. Pat Murphy obviously didn't want it to end their but Pearson was calm throughout and came out of today's press conference with credit for a change and Murphy comes across as a twat!!
BigMicky Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 Pearson got it very wrong with the press last night but got it very right today. Nice little interview with saggers there. He liked to talk over you a bit! Pretty obvious what he thinks of Pearson
Monsell1976 Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 I don't really understand this, surely being a football manager is all about the football? There are many polite managers who never get anywhere.Unfortunately it's should be about football, but being a football manager in the premier league, is so much more now, and the media side is massive, as the league is sold worldwide.Pearson on the whole this season hasn't been the greatest, and he's never been the greatest with the press. The mixture of the two this year has showed him in a bad light, to those who do not worship him, and those who don't support city. On this one, as I said a bit strange, but nothing, a bit of name calling, but no bad language, or vile things like telling people to F off and die.

Monsell1976 Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 you hid that well , I like to think I'm not a fan, not a hater, I am critical without, hating or name calling.Hope he keeps us up, if he does stay but see a shrink over the summer
FoxyPalace.com Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 Sorry but Pearson was out of order. This Pat guy has made him look like a right monkey!
mundella boy Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 I couldn't give a toss about these press conferences and Pearsons responses.

Of cause its tribal thats what its all about
Harry - LCFC Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 Sorry but Pearson was out of order. This Pat guy has made him look like a right monkey! He hasn't. Pearson's already apologised which made most of Pat's questions fairly irrelevant.
cc_star Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 Kasper on the incident and Pesrson "I think a lot of us found it quite funny," said the City goalkeeper, who was speaking at the launch of his new Precision Goalkeeping glove range, Schmeichology 5. "It is not something we take a great deal of notice of. "Anyone who has played under Nigel Pearson, knows what kind of guy he is. He will take the hits if that is what is necessary for the greater good. That is what you need in a manager, someone who is willing to do whatever it takes to make sure his players are ready to perform." Pearson claimed today that he is a completely different person on the training ground that he is with the press and Schmeichel was quick to confirm that is definitely the case. "He is an immensely respected guy in the club," he said. "He is the boss but he has got a very endearing side to him. A very calm side and he is a very, very good man-manager. "He knows when someone might need a kick up the backside and also knows when someone might need an arm around the shoulder. He is very good at doing both. You need that in a manager, someone who can measure the temperature. He is exceptionally good at knowing what players need and when they need it. "If you look at any performance, all the players are playing out of their skin trying to do whatever they can to stay in the league. If we weren't behind the manager, then perhaps we wouldn't have had the chance to stay in the league like we do now" Amen! Everything that matters in a nutshell!
TJB-fox Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 Love Nigel Pearson even more-so after dealing with that twat Murphy, making a living out of being a little snake trying to wind people up and create a story out of nothing. Hope this really unifies the squad like Kasper said in a previous post
ronnup Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 Interestingly a lot of my mates who support a variety of clubs all think Pearson comes out of it badly looking like a spoilt kid. Not my opinion.
Ricey Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 Is this true? I hope somebody has a video. It is true, I saw it. I think the ball was in play as no one else around me noticed.
Stadt Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 All of the people on twitter "well dun u put the big bad bulyl arrogant nobcünt head is his place well don e murphy." Just no.

FoxyPalace.com Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 He hasn't. Pearson's already apologised which made most of Pat's questions fairly irrelevant. Nigel's face really says it all. He was seething inside.
Collymore Posted 30 April 2015 Posted 30 April 2015 I loved this exchange Pat passionately "your apology to the journalist was more heartfelt than to that fan" NP deadpan "I didn't apologise to the fan"
