Babylon Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 Stringer wasn't granted interviews after the Cardiff game and Radio Leicester we're today banned from asking questions at the press conference. Looks like Stringer has really pissed someone off.
ousefox Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 Saw this on Stringer's Twitter. Wonder what he's done!
davieG Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 Apparently asked Pearson why he stayed out of the technical area not knowing he had a bad back, whatever it was still pretty petty by LCFC and suggests a flaw in Pearson's character as it's really punishing the fans so he should rise above it.
Shrenchel Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 Apparently asked Pearson why he stayed out of the technical area not knowing he had a bad back, whatever it was still pretty petty by LCFC and suggests a flaw in Pearson's character as it's really punishing the fans so he should rise above it. Shifty.
Trav Le Bleu Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 So at least in one way, Pearson is the new Fergie.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 NP is probabbly fed up with the shit questions he is always being asked.
Fox92 Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 Cosmic. Most questions are stupid anyway but it's the post match details that count...
Shrenchel Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 So at least in one way, Pearson is the new Fergie. Or Mandaric is the new Ken Bates.
Guest Mee-9 Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 Bad move by NP. As DavieG said, It's punishing the supporters and not BBC Radio Leicester. Did Stringer say anything bad about NP's bad back? Must of to trigger this.
Trav Le Bleu Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 Or Mandaric is the new Ken Bates. Don't even go there!
Ford Super Sunday Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 So i'm the only one that doesn't particularly care? Especially when there's still the OS, Leicester Mercury, BBC Website to get info from anyway, however shit you think the other sources are...
Sir Fynwy Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 Stringer persistently posts rubbish on twitter, makes mistakes in commentary and asks moronic questions why should the coaching staff waste time talking to him? I don't particularly care about hearing comments from the manager directly after a match anyway.
lavrentis Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 They'll be getting their info from Foxestalk now, new headline "Someone on Bentleys reckons a new player might be joining us" and commentary highlights from davieG's videos.
Manderic's pants Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 In normal circumstances, I'd talk about the pettiness of clubs refusing to give information to the media, and then blaming them when they get it wrong. But Stringer tried to win the Apprentice, so bugger it.

Sorry DavieG I don't follow your post. On the Monday Night phone in on Radio Leicester Birchenall discussed Pearson's bad back in Stringer's company. So Stringer did know about Pearson's back didn't he? We need an alternative theory!
unreachable Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 So this definately isn't an april fools then... Football is too serious for April Fool's Day jokes!
Alexikokopops Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 So this definately isn't an april fools then... Well he did post it on Twitter after midday, so it's a pretty poor attempt if it is.
The Doctor Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 Football is too serious for April Fool's Day jokes! really? there was a great one last year about Alan Shearer being appointed as newcastle manager to save them from relegation.
unreachable Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 Just reading Ian Stringer's website which includes his Twitter content http://www.ianstringer.co.uk/ My view is that Pearson likes to keep LCFC information in house and not give competitors an advantage concerning injuries and fitness immediately close to matches. Pearson is firing a shot across Stringer's bows to keep him in line. I accept that Ian Stringer is a passionate Leicester fan but why does he publish information about Dyer's fitness when it might help WBA? Discuss.
hairy Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 Just reading Ian Stringer's website which includes his Twitter content http://www.ianstringer.co.uk/ Having your own website like that says it all

The banner at the top of that page made me feel slightly
leftsideoverhere Posted 1 April 2010 Posted 1 April 2010 Normally I quite enjoy Stringer's impassioned commentary - I don't listen to RL for a 'fair and balanced' view of the games. But the downside of having a fan do the commentary is, like many fans, Stringer is prone to over-react. As the whistle went on Tuesday night, he declared that the result put Leicester City "in deep, deep trouble". Then he realised what a tit that made him sound like and added "err, in the playoff battle". I would have banned him from a press conference for that, as it was hyping up the current poor run to a ludicrous degree, but clearly the decision was taken earlier than that since it got mentioned in commentary. So what was the real cause?
