If i was Ipswich manager, whoever it was that comitted that foul for the penalty would be getting one heck of a fine after being so stupid.

 

I dont think ive ever seen such a ridiculous way to give away a penalty.

 

And lose the game.

he definitely wouldn't be in my next matchday squad after that,

what would infuriate me more is that he looked genuinely surprised as to why the ref had given the penalty especially considering he must have seen the very soft penalty his team had won at the start of the 2nd half

Derby booed off at half time - 0-1 V Newcastle. Can see Pearson being sacked fairly soon.

Last season they were top 4 in goals scored (I think) they've only scored once this season.  Not sure what Pearson's done but it clearly isn't working.

6 games into the new season with a new manager & a team clearly in transition and they are booing already. 

 

Unbelievable.

When you were a very good team at that level, change things around and take 5 points from 18, you deserve to be booed, because it is YOU that is making the negative effect and this is clear.

A very good team? They are serial bottlers who have spent a ridiculous amount of money over the last 2/3 years and still haven't got anywhere.

 

It is stupid to boo them after 6 games into the season, especially when fans should know what he did the last time he was given time in that league.

Youre making excuses for Pearson.

 

Theyve been almost pathetic in every single game, they cant score a goal, literally, and theyve sold one of their main goal scoring threats.

 

They were a very good team at that level. They needed an extra push to take the next step to promotion, not the whole thing being ****ed with.

 

Hes probably lost the fans and players already.

I honestly think hes totally lost everyone already.

 

He was a brilliant Leicester manager but i think hes had a total mare and wishes he could rewind.

We did ... but he hadn't achieved promotion at a canter and stabilised a team in the PL building the foundations for future champions

A Derby fan on the previous page said Chris Martin is a trouble maker. Now I don't know if that's true or not but I'd imagine if he was Pearson wouldn't want him around the team whether he was their main scorer or not. 

 

I agree he hasn't had the best of starts and yes I probably do make excuses because it is Pearson. But that is only because I know how good of a manager he is at that level given time. 

 

Something isn't right at Derby they have been so close for the past 3 seasons that maybe it does need a shake up of some kind. 

 

I can see similarities from this Derby team & what Pearson inherited on his second stint with. On paper it looks like a very good squad and should be doing a lot better, but results are inconsistent.

Different circumstances. 

 

We had witnessed 5/6 years of absolute shite got relegated to our lowest ever point. We then saw a manager come in who walked league one, signing young exciting prospects had a brilliant second season being one penalty away from a playoff final and making us proud of our club again.

 

He was then basically pushed out of the club and replaced by someone who was undoing all the good work the previous manager had done.

Id have just thought he would have been more astute and gradual in the changes he wanted to make.

 

They already had a formula that was pretty good. No doubt there is a questionnable mentality there and that when it really matters, they have been found wanting. Whether thats because they freeze, or whether the professionalism could be better, im not sure.

 

Im just surprised he hasnt tried to get everyone on side and then bit by bit, change things.

 

Its one thing revelling in having a no bullshit manager in charge and sorting out the bad apples etc, but producing bullshit football in the process will ruin the mood around the whole club.

Those circumstances are almost the same

 

Derby, free scoring and good to watch, agonisingly missing out on a playoff final a season after a bad blowup under McLaren. the feeling was that they could make a real push, but for varying circumstances, lost 2 good managers in Clement and the caretaker Wassall.

 

And now someone has come in to change everything.

Nice to see Aaron Mooy scoring and playing well for Huddersfield.

Gonna miss watching him for Melbourne City though, when the A league restarts.

Watching the Channel 5 show illustrated how brainless players can be. You've seen a team-mate grapple an opponent, get booked, warned 30 seconds before so what do you do? Exactly the same thing. And then to look bemused when the referee gives a penalty.

 

The manager has every right to publicly lambast him for that, awful work.

A potential promotion 6-pointer today - Villa v Forest.

 

Was quite amused/annoyed earlier when searching through my TV BT channel listings - there's a channel called 'Notts TV', and it's programmes included discussions about Forest's European past success, some documentary about Brian Clough and why they're excited about Nicklaus Bendtner and an interview with him about his reasons in joining them.
