Wood's fault for the first goal too. All he had to do was stay with his man and instead he tries to push him on the shoulder and let him stroll past.

Ever since I started supporting us we've been ****ing shit. Cannot be ****ed with another season in this shite league

I don't want Pearson out, but I'm making a mental note of all the people saying that a manager can't be in any way responsible for a result like this, simply so I can ignore everything they say in the future.

This is a manager who selected the team - with Nugent in it despite him being out of form for ten weeks, then didn't take him off even though he was having a stinker, did take Wood off who was having a good game and then... watched as we conceded yet another late goal courtesy of Nugent.

Managers take responsibility for results, regardless of which player screwed up or whatever errors the referee made (one might also say that there was a foul in the build-up to the corner for our second, or that a soft free kick rescued Morgan from all sorts of trouble in the penalty area in the 75th minute). And this manager has presided over our worst run in over half a decade.

This isn't a one-off late goal we've conceded, a one-off under-performer who's remained in the side, a one-off questionable 87th minute substitution or a one-off failure to put a game which was well within our grasp to bed.

Goals come from some degree of human error 99 times out of a 100. If we start excusing managers from responsibility on the basis of one particular error, then we have to take the point of view that the managers who assemble squads at great cost, pick teams, handle their tactics and make substitutions only have a very tiny percentage of the blame when it goes wrong, or credit when it doesn't. And that, frankly, is b*****ks.

We are wasting our breath Mate. Joke is once NP is gone they will all hate him And pretend they wanted him out earlier and start bumming the new guy.

It's because they are just better fans. Turn off brain. Love Leicester manager.

Not really, I'm no Pearson 'lover', I'm angry at him for many of the past 13 games, but this is a 'POST MATCH BIRMINGHAM 2-2' thread, and IN THIS GAME, Pearson is not to blame.

Seriously How inept does Pearson have to be to make you Cretin's still believe that he is the one to take us up through the play-off's! I mean seriously!

bad tactics, player's out of position, poor decision making and first half you sit on bench and decide to do nothing to motivate the player's and show the fan's you have some passion and desire. Im sorry but your body language proves to me the writing is on the wall for you. MON being out of a job should make this an easy decision for our owner's, let's build for next season now! for the record I want to say that I don't believe MON is the man to do the job for us, however I feel the owner's will want a name and given the history he has with the club will go for him? tonight was the last straw for me, and before anyone has a go at me! just look at our overall form, not acceptable.

Overall form over the last 2 games has been good. Just unlucky tonight. Nugent's rush of blood has cost us tonight not Pearsons tactics.

Or not..... Given the FACT that we are the worst team in the league for last min conceding.

If you really think that it was more probable to concede in the last 3 minutes than not, you need your head checking.

Every game must be viewed in context. Not good enough. Might be good enough for you, might not, that's up to you. It's not good enough for me.

Having conceded next to none in the previous 28 games, the number of late goals we've conceded in the last 13 games is astonishing.

What have Wood and Kane got to do with this?

It was Nugent who made the error, not Kane. Making any link between those two and the goal hopeful at best.

To be fair Wood is not the player he was, just did not look 100% committed to me?

The Foxes' Thai owner Vichai Raksriaksorn was making a rare personal appearance at the King Power Stadium....BBC Report. - Does this spell the end for Pearson?

So tell me this. If NP was faultless. Why take off Wood, often the target of our out ball and holding it up well, for Kane who was completely disinterested and didn't compete for a single ball?

Conveniently ignoring that?

The substitution of Wood for Kane had nothing to do with Nugent going full blown retard ffs.

Fine, you have always maintained your Pearson out belirf, but at least make valid points, not picking up on irrelevant things to further your agenda.

I hope for your sake our next manager is a bit like Sven, hook line and sinker for the PR charm..

im really not sure what some people want, we were the better team, created lots of clear cut chances, the tactics looked spot on to me and kasper was rarely needed. I have images of the pearson out brigade celebrating as wildly as the brum fans after the pen tonight.. like it or not our performances have picked up again, and if we continue to play like we have in the last 2 we have an outside chance of making the playoffs if other results go our way

Would it be good enough for you if Nugent layed it off, and we won? Or is Pearson still at fault there? Seeing as Pearson did exactly the same things in both of those scenarios...

Well there's no meaningful discussion here, just the usual trolls. I guess there's little to discuss we all saw what happened.

Yeah, let's give the new guy 4 games, when we're still in the play-off hunt.

Perhaps the suggestion is that he should have taken Nugent, already our worst performer on the night, off instead of Wood, who had been very good.

Thought he held the ball up superbly. His chest control is great. Big fan

At one stage he managed to chest a ball about 15 yards backwards when he was trying to kill it.

Don't get me wrong, it's admirable that he's trying to bring it down, but Wood's first touch is not very good.

If I had a pound for the amount of times I have said that I would be a rich man. You will be there next season. Leicester are like having a son with with ADHD, ****ing mental and unpredictable but you love them anyway. Hope that analogy doesn't offend!!

Possibly the most liberal use of "very good" I've ever come across.

Hate Curtis Davies so much, I hope the ref gives him a lift home and... let your imagination do the rest
