Fox42 Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Leeds just for Pearson's little head bob and celebrations that followed when Howard scored the goal.

bovril Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Swansea home 09. Weird choice, but for me it symbolises what was great about Pearson's first tenure. The past 5 years had been dull, depressing, frustrating. Every year we had hopes to reach the playoffs, and they had usually gone by mid November. We won the 3rd division under Pearson but it was still, you know, the third division. It remained to be seen if we could actually push on and challenge for promotion to the Premiership for the first time in what seemed like ages. The first half of the Swansea game seemed to confirm all my fears, we were crap and losing and seemed ready for another season of struggle. But we turned it around to win and went on to have a good season. We weren't a great team that year but finally we looked like we could compete for promotion. It was just refreshing, after years of dross, actually winning more matches than losing. So strange choice. But when I think of Pearson's time at Leicester, for some reason that game sticks out in my mind. I'm not as upset as some on here that he's gone, but he did great things for my club.
LCFC FOX Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 What a man.To think he has a heart problem too love him
indierich06 Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Has anyone got the video/gif of him doing that phantom header on the touchline? Think it might have been Howard's goal against Leeds, that's my enduring memory of the bloke. Love it!
CosbehFox Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 I remember watching us at Bramall Lane mid August when coming back up from League 1. We drew 1-1 but we were great second half. I remember thinking that's the day the fans won their club back. The fact that some muppets can't even acknowledge his excellent work or that he pulled off one of the greatest results, all time in the clubs history is angering and very sad.
The Horse's Mouth Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 thinking about it is just making me more mad he's gone, seriously fantastic moments.
stevelcfc Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Bolton away with that Dyer right foot rocket also has to be up there.
ousefox Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 thinking about it is just making me more mad he's gone, seriously fantastic moments. Agreed. What have they done? I can't believe he won't be managing us any more
shailen Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 I remember thinking that this appointment was so low profile and risky that he would be out of here quickly. His lack of experience was so uninspiring but he has turned out to be one of the best managers ever in our history. I think everyone wanted Jon Gregory at the time . No one even mentioned his name.
Littletoe Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 This thread is making me sad same tbh mate! In response to the thread, LEICESTER CITY 5 MANCHESTER UNITED 3 ALL DAYYYY!!!
Poakey Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 Burnley away last season, the first pumping to the city fans at the end
Littletoe Posted 2 July 2015 Posted 2 July 2015 It's like we didn't exist before Pearson No, we felt like we existed during Pearson.
