seenitall Posted 4 April 2013 Posted 4 April 2013 You are very funny sometimes seenitall that genuinely did make me laugh out loud. Back to topic I would like to ask you a very serious question, with six games left would you as the owner stick or twist? Please see the inspiring list of candidates to replace him on your desk before answering.Please also bring into the equation that we may not be the biggest draw out there, if rumours from alleged ITKs are to be believed.Let's face it Sven went to Notts County because there was some made up money there! This is not a wind up I'm genuinely interested in your opinion on this matter! I would have twisted about four games ago if I were the owner but now I think it would do nothing. Even if we scrape a play off place I can't see any of the teams above us (maybe Palace) surrendering to our uninspired football so the only reason to change now would be because someone great would come in and start the necessary changes for next season. Who that might be and who we might get is another story - i'd rather see an admittance from the board that they are clueless by appointing someone who has worked at the top of football before to run the club and let them decide on manager. I am often accused of hating Nige but couldn't be further from the truth, he seems alright personally and he must be going through hell right now but that doesn't mean he isn't woefully out of his depth and he should be removed as soon as possible after the season ends, the mistake being that he was hired in the first place after the knee jerk sacking of Sven and failure to attract anyone else. Woeful.
hackneyfox Posted 4 April 2013 Posted 4 April 2013 Would you still be calling for Pearson's head if he actually manages to get us in the playoffs? It can still be done. Yes I would and I still would if we were to get promoted via the play-offs. I've never been an admirer of him or his turgid football, I then decided earlier this season that I should perhaps rethink that when we were playing great football, then no surprises he returned to his default style of play. We've had 2 good runs of 5 victories but have lost 15 games this season. The current run has gone on for so long and the players games have got worse that for me he clearly has no idea of how to change things or to get the best out of players. Under him I believe we'd get slaughtered in the PL and this team of young, hungry players is nowhere near good enough.

But surely if we made playoffs that would mean he's turned it around though surely? I agree that the team is nowhere near Premier League standard but until Pearson gets us or even manages a team in the Prem we can't judge.
StanSP Posted 4 April 2013 Posted 4 April 2013 No, because I know someone who is friends with Shakey and was told on good authority that this was the truth and Whelan ended up giving Pearson an apology when it leaked out. I don't believe you. But that's just personal preference; so don't take it personally .
jamesmilner Posted 4 April 2013 Posted 4 April 2013 I don't believe you. But that's just personal preference; so don't take it personally . you just dont want to believe him like me ! i hope its not true , but it could be ! the guy i follow on twitter is very good with his predictions , he says mark hughes has been spoke to and that pearson is a dead man walking , i dont want to believe that either but i dont know if its true or not . but with his form , im scared of the truth , thats different .
LCFC_FAN_1995 Posted 4 April 2013 Posted 4 April 2013 And I fully believe he'll be here next season, team needs improving and strengthening and they realise it can't just instantly happen
jimmy_sids Posted 4 April 2013 Posted 4 April 2013 Think we have to give Pearson until the end of the season as there are only six games left. It doesn't really matter who else we might get in as it's unlikely to make any difference. Thing is, I had thought Pearson was doing a good job and two months ago no-one would ever have suggested we should sack him. The squad was balanced, we were playing well and we were second in the league. I don't know what has changed but I don't really see how we can not sack him after this run. There isn't anything fundamentally wrong with the squad but we seem to lack composure and I don't know where we go from here. Am off to Brighton on Saturday but think it could be a miserable affair. Highlights from Barnsley looked awful.
Mark_w Posted 4 April 2013 Posted 4 April 2013 our manager �� Our fans �� (Edit: Well that didn't work, but I think you get the point, they're shit.)
ADK Posted 4 April 2013 Posted 4 April 2013 Wow i hate foreign owners, always sticking with managers when it's obvious they should be sacked.
Flyfox Posted 4 April 2013 Posted 4 April 2013 Perhaps slightly cynical, but I honestly think there's a number of supporters that actually WANT the lads to get beaten over the next few games for the sake of boosting their own ego's.
Bilbo Posted 4 April 2013 Posted 4 April 2013 Perhaps slightly cynical, but I honestly think there's a number of supporters that actually WANT the lads to get beaten over the next few games for the sake of boosting their own ego's. Yeah for some reason half the moaning gimps that have flooded the forum for the past couple of games only show up when we are losing. It makes them feel good to doom monger.
Strokes Posted 4 April 2013 Posted 4 April 2013 Looking forward too brighton now, hope he can turn it round. Be great to get hull in the playoffs and shove recent gloating right up their ********
BoneDog Posted 4 April 2013 Posted 4 April 2013 Perhaps slightly cynical, but I honestly think there's a number of supporters that actually WANT the lads to get beaten over the next few games for the sake of boosting their own ego's. Yes I noticed that quite a few were delighted on Monday when we lost!
Dan Posted 4 April 2013 Posted 4 April 2013 Credit to them. A lot of trigger happy owners nowadays and I personally think they're a huge shit stain on football, but this lot seem more loyal than the majority.
Guest Basildon Fox Posted 5 April 2013 Posted 5 April 2013 No, because I know someone who is friends with Shakey and was told on good authority that this was the truth and Whelan ended up giving Pearson a golden shower when it leaked out. No less true than before...
MPH Posted 5 April 2013 Posted 5 April 2013 Wow i hate foreign owners, always sticking with managers when it's obvious they should be sacked. errrr.... thats a Joke, right? I always thought alot of owners these days were pretty much trigger happy... Credit to them. A lot of trigger happy owners nowadays and I personally think they're a huge shit stain on football, but this lot seem more loyal than the majority. i should read a whole thread before replying i guess
paulsherwood1 Posted 5 April 2013 Posted 5 April 2013 Yes I noticed that quite a few were delighted on Monday when we lost! I've not seen this anywhere to be fair. I have long since grumbled about Pearson, but I have always said that the team comes first, and as long as we live up to our potential then fine. I never want us to lose just to prove me right, lcfc winning is everything! My whole week ahead depends on this result on Saturday!
James. Posted 5 April 2013 Posted 5 April 2013 My whole week ahead depends on this result on Saturday! Christ.
alwyne webster Posted 5 April 2013 Posted 5 April 2013 get rid ,put him on another bus (scotland will do )but not brighton ,he should do the right thing for the club ,supporters who spent there money at the club,im sure the owners wont be standing for that shit for a lot longer ,N.P get out.
whitlock Posted 5 April 2013 Posted 5 April 2013 Hopefully look back in 6-8 months time and say, bloody hell, do you remember that time we all wanted NP sacked? What morons we all was, so glad that the owners didn't knee jerk into him leaving......
alwyne webster Posted 5 April 2013 Posted 5 April 2013 Having given the pearson situation at this present time a great deal of thought ,and if it is true that the owners are backing him,which i suppose at the moment they are ,id have to think very hard about renewing my 2 season tickets for next season which ive held for many years if hes still in charge,to be honest i couldnt afford to spend that kind of money to go week after week and watch that rubbish ,and also to add i do not put any blame on the players,pearson selects the team he puts out every week so he should be held responsible ,i was involved in sport many years ago but he wouldnt inspire me.i rest my case, so susan or whoever is in charge of the finances of the club take note ,i am 1 of many.
hackneyfox Posted 5 April 2013 Posted 5 April 2013 The four of us won't be renewing our season tickets if he's still in charge. I probably won't due to the number of televised games but if Coco stays then it's a certaintity that I won't.

That sounds so familiar. Wait... I knew it - the Pearson haters DO have an agenda!! They're coming, they're coming to get us!!!
