Silverdaz Posted 26 July 2013 Share Posted 26 July 2013 Yes I know what your going to say Oh no not another Pearson thread but as im quite new to this forum im quite intrigued into why some people dislike NP as our manager I cant see he has done much wrong, I know some people will say his quotes from last season got under their noses but the delusions of grandeur one he was right as we as fans were deluding ourselves in thinking the team was better than it was. I fully appreciate I might get loads of abuse here but like I say im just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Posted 26 July 2013 Share Posted 26 July 2013 because he is too stubborn and pig headed, and his insistence of 442 means our better players are forced to play out of position, though if he is favouring a 352, used in a couple of friendlies, or any system built to get the best out of the likes of Knockaert, I'll be happy, but I'll believe it when I see it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_lad_92 Posted 26 July 2013 Share Posted 26 July 2013 No idea why people seem to dislike him either mate, top half finished every season inc two playoffs and a promotion:/ seems like our fans automatically think we should be a premier league club, just doesn't happen over night and negativity won't help at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Posted 26 July 2013 Share Posted 26 July 2013 he doesn't help himself too much either, annoy Stringer all you like but you still need to communicate, directly with the fans, preferably without being patronising of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverdaz Posted 26 July 2013 Author Share Posted 26 July 2013 I know he comes across as arrogant but that a persona every manager has one and sticking to 4-4-2 got us to top of the table and it was quite a flexible 4-4-2 as Knockaert andy Dyer/marshall kept wandering all over the place which allowed De Laet and Konchesky to get more forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_Numan Posted 26 July 2013 Share Posted 26 July 2013 Whenever I've questioned people over their anti-Pearson views it always comes right down to the same thing. They just don't like him. It's entirely personal. They're entitled to their feelings but they've let them affect their judgement of him and the situation we're in post-Sven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Posted 26 July 2013 Share Posted 26 July 2013 it also caused us to nearly fall apart, due to his stubbornness, we were getting over run in midfield and he wouldn't change it, we'd be struggling in a game, with someone having no impact, he'd wait 10 mins too long to make a sub he does it all the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree sometimes it's frustrating when we're thinking time for a change but everyone has an opinion on tactics ultimately it's Nigel's, 1 kick from Wembley...it nearly worked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lionator Posted 26 July 2013 Share Posted 26 July 2013 I've had he pleasure of meeting the guy on several occasions and he is anything but arrogant or pig-headed. His problem is that he doesn't suck up to he media like many other managers. If you evaluate his record at this club then you'll see what a great fit he is for us.

suffolk fox Posted 26 July 2013 Share Posted 26 July 2013 Never have liked him even before he came back to us for a second stint. He is tactically naive doesn't know or even have a clue how to change a game when the opposition press us high up the pitch or outnumber us in midfield. Blames the fans, when we lose and wn't accept personal responsibilty that's it's down to him. Comes out with the same excuses that we must work harder? Same substitutions all the time same bench? People go on that his record is second to none bar Martin O'neal. I would say rubbish Brian Little had a better record than him at least he got us to three play off finals a feat Pearson has not managed yet?

Basically you don't like him :L He's close to 'little's record' with a better win ratio and maybe next year he'll match littles 3 chances in playoffs to get us up:) just get behind him for goodness sake. Wish people would lay off the man; he's built us a very young hungry squad who came so close last year and will only improve, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark_w Posted 26 July 2013 Share Posted 26 July 2013 I'll never understand why 'he always plays 4-4-2' is more important to some people than 'he's the only manager in 9 seasons to get us in to the top six of the Championship'. I'll also never get why anyone other than Stringer would genuinely want him sacked just because he isn't the easiest person to interview, when we're fans of the football club and should surely care more about how the club is doing rather than our managers ability to handle the media. If Ian Stringer has annoyed the best manager we've had for years and IS asking him stupid questions then it's frankly him who people should have a problem with. Pearson has his failings but the positives massively outweigh the negatives. ....and that's because they have a different opinion to you right?OK. No, it's because they have a different opinion that is stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
