purpleronnie Posted 1 April 2013 Share Posted 1 April 2013 Well if the rumours are true there was an incident with one of the players, i dont want to mention names, but it did happen (supposedly happen) around 2 months ago, but probably bollocks.

Swiss_tony Posted 1 April 2013 Share Posted 1 April 2013 you mean where he rested players for the FA cup so they could get 6 out of 33 pts ??

cc_star Posted 1 April 2013 Share Posted 1 April 2013 Changing the team for the FA Cup tie seemed to do us no favours, things have declined from there. Every single thing that could go wrong, has gone wrong... right from our Captain getting sent off within 2mins after a great opportunity for a fresh slate after the International break, to injury time equaliser by Cardiff after a solid performance to the being robbed by Millwall late on It's not solely down to the manager, but the buck does stop with him. something is up with Wood and Pearson persisting with playing him - What's the deal there, in his form Wood is like playing with minus 1 player, he's ruined Nugent's game, he can't hold the ball up and allow us to attack in meaningful numbers like Vardy & Wood could earlier in the season, he can't play it out to widemen to cut in... and above all he's displaced Nugent's whole game. Our overwhelming numbers in attack just can't happen with Wood in the team in this form. Why is someone who makes the other 9 outfield players not play to their strengths being picked ahead of others? I just don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't get it. maybe nugent has said this exact same thing to nige and upset the apple cart . maybe wood had a clause to play every game then he would sign for us instead of millwall i know the buck stops with pearson but his attitude of keeping everything in house has not prob helped matters oust the bad apples in the open i say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxfanazer Posted 1 April 2013 Share Posted 1 April 2013 Been a big fan of Pearson but for me I think it's time to move on. He is good championship manager but in not sure he will improve to be any better than that. Not all his fault by any means though, the players have well and truely let him down! We are a completely different side to the one that started the season so well, and for what reason I don't know? I think it's inevitable he will be sacked so good luck to him in the future an thank you for the success you have had here. I will certainly applaud him if he returns to the KP as the manager of another team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue will Posted 1 April 2013 Share Posted 1 April 2013 It simply does not make sense, we had best goal diff, kept loads of clean sheets, used to create loads of chances, hit woodwork at least twice a game! Things are getting worse each game, we don't have a decent player anywhere on the pitch Season well and truly over So close but yet SO FAR away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearson is a poor judge of strikers in my opinion. Waghorn did well during his initial loan and Howard did a job in Division 1. It's too early to say about Wood. Otherwise his record is very been poor in this respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitchandro Posted 1 April 2013 Share Posted 1 April 2013 It's quality.. A lack of when it really mattered. And experience. IMO. But there's definitely a change in attitude on the pitch. It is something to do with a lack of depth in quality, lack of consistency from younger players, the lack of leaders. But there's also a lack of positivity, work rate, the body language etc. It seemed to change very quickly. I've no idea why that is, maybe they're all just weak characters.

It's not just Pearson though is it? He has a whole team around him. Yes, he makes the final decisions, but you'd imagine they have several meetings with coaches, scouts, doctors etc before any decisions are made. It's time to clear out all the backroom staff. We get a player in, they play decent for a while and then someone trains the goal scoring out of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dayday Posted 1 April 2013 Share Posted 1 April 2013 We have to remember how we were winning games pre-christmas,and also the games we were not winning..we created endless chances with our quick pass and go movement in and around the final third. So what does Pearson do sign 2 target men in Wood and Kane......nothing against the lads but they were exactly the type of players we did not need,no wonder we have gone down hill.

They are not allowed or have been trained to not play how they would do naturally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend_in_blue Posted 1 April 2013 Share Posted 1 April 2013 The cautious approach adopted by Pearson was brought up a few weeks ago. This has happened and unfortunately this approach has taken us too far the other way and I don't see us clawing it back. I've been resigned to us not making it this season since the Sheffield Wednesday home game. We were done then tbh and no amount of getaways to Portugal, playing Wellens or not, blaming individuals etc. will change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerrrFox Posted 1 April 2013 Share Posted 1 April 2013 My theory is that something has happened between the players and Pearson and now they are thinking "**** it, let's lose and get him sacked." I might be the only one to think this but I reckon the Thai's should keep Pearson and stop any sort of player power forming at the club. Then in the summer Pearson can clear out the ones who clearly don't want to be here anymore (Marshall, Drinkwater, Whitbread). We have had so many managers we can't keep sacking them. The players have to take responsibility, they can't go from playing how they did in January to now and escape the blame. That's not the managers fault. Not the managers fault at all.

Raj Posted 2 April 2013 Share Posted 2 April 2013 They probably thought they were better than they were after the great run in Jan. I know people harp on about the Huddo away game BUT the team he put out SHOULD have ben good enough to beat Huddo. The collapse just isnt down to that game....
