But Pearson would have needed funds to strengthen, after all he built a squad not good enough to go up, with plenty of deadwood in it. The new manager will only sort that, he's not going to buy 22 new players.

There's no saying Pearson would get us up, in fact signs point to more of a relegation/ mid-table fight after that terrible run which he didn't really ever sort out.

A young squad that with time will get better. There's not a lot that needs fixing with our side other than letting the players mature together, but what do I know I've only supported the team all my life, I know nothing compared to a Thai duty free mogul that's using us a tax break/advertising vehicle.

I honestly wasn't sure whether I thought Pearson should stay or go, due to our awful form/playing style in the second half of the season. But my initial reaction to this (if it is true) was one of disappointment, so maybe I do want him to stay after all.

Football fans are a moronic breed. Who'd be stupid enough to return their season ticket when they don't know who has replaced him? When they haven't given him a couple of months? The owners have the complete right to do this. 

 

I don't think that, as a couple of people have said, this decision is merely a footballing one. It's evident that the guy's a bit of a **** when we wants to be and has no interest in any publicity, player relations or indeed any respect for those who don't fit his 'criteria'. He'd be much more suited to an assistant manager's job at a bigger club because, as he's proven during both spells, he can't keep people happy, nor can he get over the finish line when he's in the big chair. 

 

Gus doesn't scream 'going forward', no, but what appointment can assure success?

 

 

That's if it's true, if not...  :pearson:

 

 

think they'd return them in reaction to another sacking.

Watford - Sean Dyche - Gianfranco Zola

+ spending nothing on Italian Loans.

 

We'd have to spend loan capital, essentially paying the owners through debentures on bringing in Gus' (or whoever) new players.

If this is true... Onwards and upwards... The owners shouldn't be blamed for investing their hard earned money in us. The faster we drive the owners away the less of a club we will have left. Pearson didn't achieve the pre season expectation that he admitted to himself. Finishing 6th this season taking everything into account was not good enough. Would people have a different view if we hadn't scored THAT GOAL against forest!?

 

I think you mean loaning their hard earned money to us, with 8% interest. They're not just giving it to us.

Fine, if you think this is the right way to run a club, especially with FFP on the horizon, then whatever. I want what's best for my club and throwing cash at trying to get automatic promotion at any cost is not what's best for my club.

 

I'll continue to support the club, but I'm seriously losing faith in our owners and when they leave there are going to be some very, very tough times for this club.

I don't think it's the right way to run the club but he would have spent money himself so I see little difference bar compensation for a new manager. Twice he has failed to get us up now, last season we didn't even make a fist of it, this season he was powerless to stop us bottling it.

The worst thing about all of this is the shitestream of 'just seen [insert manager's name here] buying a tube of Durex Play in Morrisons' posts.

I have a contact from a source of the club. He says we're going for either Mourinho or Alex Ferguson. He can't confirm which one yet though. I'll keep you all updated.

The form and football we played in the 2nd half of the seasons deserves the sack.

but the form and football we played in the 1st half of the season deserves a new contract!

No, short sighted, quick fire hand opinions like the one you've exercised do.

Brighton supporter here. With Gus being suspended yesterday I wonder if he is on his way to you?
