Mack Posted 6 November 2011 Author Posted 6 November 2011 How do you know it aint bullshit, it states skysport source, notice how they put SOURCE that is incase the rumour is wrong Because Sky are very well connected. They cant come out and say it outright to cover themselves, but I don't believe they would announce it if it was from a flimsy unreliable source. That would make a mockery of their sports news channel.

liamsm Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 What do football managers say " Never Go Back " i for one think we can do better than Nigel with football thats good to watch. Redknapp and portsmouth are just one that spring to mind.
RyanB89 Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 f**k sake of all the managers we go for pearson? god help us
liamsm Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 Not my 1st choice, but wonder where we'd be if he hadn't left for the year and a half, avoiding the disastrous Sousa & under-achiever Sven. I can't see him getting anywhere near the same funds Sven half wasted though. If no MoN or Hughes I'd quite happily say come on home Pearson, he's a better option than Jones who they've obviously spoke to, does make me wonder why not Davies though or perhaps it's his unpopularity on here. it has been stated that the owners will give the new owner 20m to spend.
Fox92 Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 Redknapp and portsmouth are just one that spring to mind. There are a few examples; Kenny Dalglish Tony Pulis Graham Westley Harry Redknapp f**k sake of all the managers we go for pearson? god help us The manager with the biggest win percentage in Leicester City history... oh yeah, why wouldn't we want him?
Mack Posted 6 November 2011 Author Posted 6 November 2011 I've just seen Pearson interviewed on the subject after the Hull game yesterday, you can tell he wants to come back. He's not the type to mince his words, and he is sitting on the fence big time.
Bausor Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 the owners want someone that knows the league - pearson knows the league it will also help he knows the club but no all the players but thats a good thing he comes in fresh and a much better squad than before, neison/ morrison, and the like, he could work wonders with better players, and i think he will, hes never been given the chance to work with players like mills, jonhson, beckford, bamba, kasper, TOP get this DONE, Last nights football league show interview gave it away for me, hes willing to come back after what i heard if hull accpet approch, its been refused so its now up to nige to come back to his beloved leicester this will happen - just my opinon by the way. come home mon nige
THEBIGJOHNSTEADER; Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 You to me are everything the sweetest guy that I could rim, oh Nigel
Ric Flair Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 Reading this thread has left me dumbfounded at some of our fans. I hope you get stuck in traffic to the match, get your ball sack caught in your zip, get hit by a scolding hot cup of bovril by a Leeds fan and Leicester's new manager Roy Keane thumbs you for a lift home. Utter coonts.

He's not the type to mince his words, and he is sitting on the fence big time. I probably agree but it's so strange. NP states he left us because we never blocked the approach and felt unwanted by that, now Hull have blocked an approach from us because obliviously they want to keep him. So does NP go back on his word and ask to speak to Leicester? It's all very strange unless it was a big master plan all along.
Tielemans63 Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 If it is a ploy to get another manager to make a move than it's a bloody stupid one and they shouldn't be using Hull and Nigel Pearson to do that quite frankly. I font think that is the case - I think the owners have failed to attract their top 3 choices and are now beginning to panic a bit. I've said for a while that I don't think they're handling this too well. As for NP. I'd welcome him back - did a great job with limited resources. I think we'd see better football with the players now at our disposal but we'd also regain that ability to win ugly as well which u need to gain promotion. Also, those people saying 'oh I don't want to see Fryatt and Hobbs back here' - why the **** would he bring them back? We were a different side then and both men did a good job for us which some people seem to have conveniently forgotten.
SpartakAnj Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 So we spent the last 18 months dismantling the squad that Pearson built and we are now going to reappoint him and wait for him to rebuild his former team? I don't have anything against Pearson, I think he is a good manager, but reappointing him now has made the last 18 months a complete waste of time. I am finding it difficult to get excited about this prospect. It is clear that MON and Hughes are not interested in the job. Pretty disappointing.
Happy Fox Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 Were has it been said that Hughes isn't interested according to Fourth official he is.
Callabinho Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 Pearson left because he would have most likely have been sacked anyway, but I would sure as hell take him back! You know for a fact that he brings stability, organisation, discipline!

accessory Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 I've seen the story on the Sky Sports website. I didn't see any evidence of the following: 1) That any approach by us to Hull has actually been made. 2) That Pearson will be prepared to walk out his contract and rejoin us. I can see what may tempt him to come back. Mandaric and Hoos are gone, the squad is a lot stronger than the one he left 16 months ago and there may be millions available for him to spend in January's transfer window. But he's always appeared to be a man of honour. He probably prefers to stay at a club which offers more stability and whose fanbase don't have the same level of expectations that we do.
Mack Posted 6 November 2011 Author Posted 6 November 2011 so they have not stated things from sources before that have been incorrect? There's no smoke without fire. I just hope Stringer has some other career options!
themotivator Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 i dont want pearson to come back, but if he wants to come back, i would be pleased to have him back.
SpartakAnj Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 Were has it been said that Hughes isn't interested according to Fourth official he is. If Hughes is interested then why on gods green earth have we approached Hull? After MON, Hughes would be my preferred choice. If Sparky is interested and MON isn't then give him the chuffin job! Approaching Hull is a bizarre decision if Pearson is not first choice.
Tielemans63 Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 Were has it been said that Hughes isn't interested according to Fourth official he is. I still hope he is but if so - why has nothing happened? (He's a free agent, money shouldnt be an issue either). And why are we making an approach for Nige? (If that is genuine but I don't see why it wouldn't be).
Matt Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 i dont want pearson to come back, but if he wants to come back, i would be pleased to have him back. Ok...
Cecchini1976 Posted 6 November 2011 Posted 6 November 2011 Not sure why people seem to think loads have managers have turned us down? Who, when? This is all made up. Did we approach Huddersfield ? Did Hughes turn us down?
