coolhandfox Posted 30 October 2023 Posted 30 October 2023 (edited) Still think this is good for NP. Sort his health out, sad seeing him in this way. Edited 30 October 2023 by coolhandfox 1

That’s bollocks cos if there was anything he was excellent at was the eye for a player alongside Steve Walsh.
CosbehFox Posted 30 October 2023 Posted 30 October 2023 Anyway he needs time out of the game. Get himself fit and healthy. A backroom role would suit him now I think but he’s very much into leadership and team building

Pearson’s job wasn’t to find talent. Steve Walsh’s was. You’ve highlighted it. Agree Pearson gets an average side playing well, but to have him in a director’s role is bonkers. He’d upset far too many people he would have to pretend to like. It’s a different level off the pitch and upstairs with board members and away from the players. He’s not suited to that type of role. 8
Number 6 Posted 30 October 2023 Posted 30 October 2023 Could have seen some sense in a parting of ways in the summer when his contract was up. 99% of Nigel's strengths lie in stuff that doesn't happen at 3pm on a Saturday. No bad eggs, unity, fitness, etc. You hand that over to someone who can tweak the tactics and there is potential for seeing a team kick on from those excellent foundations. Think the Champ will be weaker next season too.

Until the Lansdowns leave. I hope you don't 'rot', well not the BCFC fans anyway. The days of hundreds of fans standing outside board rooms and shouting positive encouragement and advice (ie abuse and other things) have long gone. However, socials seem to be the way to campaign to get changes and remind the owners that you have had enough. Keep up the pressure and make your feelings known on match days. What's the alternative? Boycott the club? 1
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 30 October 2023 Posted 30 October 2023 Seriously though I think he'll retire now. He's spoken about it before. 1

I thought Wales you know, especially given he loves the area he's in now and would be a good base for him for a role like that. Don't think Page has long left anyway.
ARM1968 Posted 30 October 2023 Posted 30 October 2023 Wales is awesome between May and June. Before and after it’s hit and miss - plenty of frickin rain. I’m Sure big Nige would love it.
Popular Post Flynny Posted 30 October 2023 Popular Post Posted 30 October 2023 Actually sick at this. 3 points off the playoffs, just played Leeds and Leicester in their patch of poor form, 11 first team injuries and a tiny squad with transfer fees not being reinvested. Man was working miracles and looked well placed to challenge for playoffs when injuries subsided. But also, the man is being investigated for a neurological condition and can barely walk. So utterly, utterly classless. No-one treats my Nige like this. 17

Judging by his farewell tweets, it seems he's planning on staying in North Somerset, so you may well be right. I think I know his local. I might go and buy him a pint.

Perhaps it is about to be sold Pearson got sacked after his first succesfull spell here because the previous owner (Milan Manderic) wanted a big name manager to sell the club to prospective buyers (King Power). Nige wasn't seen as sexy enough and not many would've heard of him in Thailand. Perhaps BCFC are looking for a 'name' to raise the clubs image to attract potential suitors. Fortunately, Rooney is already taken.

Stevosevic Posted 30 October 2023 Posted 30 October 2023 If we need a caretaker at any point over the next 5 years for 10 games or so I’m pretty sure it will be him. 1
Guest Chocolate Teapot Posted 30 October 2023 Posted 30 October 2023 I was really looking forward to Bristol City away.
