StanSP Posted 29 April 2014 Posted 29 April 2014 I'm pretty sure it was only for precautionary reasons that he went in to hospital anyway? Just cos the media called it a 'heart scare' doesn't mean it actually was one.
Dickov22 Posted 29 April 2014 Posted 29 April 2014 I've heard this rumour too. Hope it's not true for Pearson's sake and of course for ours.
Lobsterboyuk Posted 29 April 2014 Posted 29 April 2014 The same Nige who went for bike ride in the peak district on the day we achieved promotion? Must be a serious heart condition then...
hackneyfox Posted 29 April 2014 Author Posted 29 April 2014 Walking and cycling are highly recomended exercises for people with heat conditions. It's not as if it's only BR that have mentioned this, see Dickov22 above.
NewburyFox Posted 29 April 2014 Posted 29 April 2014 The same Nige who went for bike ride in the peak district on the day we achieved promotion? Must be a serious heart condition then... While I think this rumour is untrue (and sincerely hope it isn't), there's a difference between going for a leisurely bike ride and the day-to-day stress of being a football manager. The same applies to a few drinks really, getting a bit tipsy doesn't put much of a strain on your heart.

OK then, why has somebody with a diagnosed serious heart condition been allowed to continue in his normal role? It's bollocks...
Hungry Hungry Fox Posted 29 April 2014 Posted 29 April 2014 If he was to step down it would've been announced by now....and he most definitely wouldn't of been giving interviews about transfer targets for next season
hackneyfox Posted 29 April 2014 Author Posted 29 April 2014 OK then, why has somebody with a diagnosed serious heart condition been allowed to continue in his normal role? It's bollocks... Perhaps because NFP was determined to finish the season? Perhaps he's ok for the moment but been warned that an extra stress could cause problems, it's been, in the main, a stress free season but that will change next year. I'd certainly never heard of him having heart problems at Hull but I'm not itk.

hackneyfox Posted 29 April 2014 Author Posted 29 April 2014 If he was to step down it would've been announced by now....and he most definitely wouldn't of been giving interviews about transfer targets for next season I don't think it would be announced until after the end of the season, NFP doesn't strike me as the type who would like all the attention. The interviews about next seasons targets could just be because if he'd said nothing at all rumours would have spread about his health, a total rebuild of the squad etc. It's not as if I believe it myself I'm just amazed at how some people seem to be sticking their fingers in their ears and taking it personally.
Hungry Hungry Fox Posted 29 April 2014 Posted 29 April 2014 Admit it , you posted this(on 2 separate forums too) to get a reaction
Swiss_tony Posted 29 April 2014 Posted 29 April 2014 he has a history of heart problems and not just at leicester. now they can be caused by all sorts of things, too much caffiene for one, and aren't all fatal. so who knows what is/was wrong, but it's not BS to say his heart health hasn't been 100%. if he has to step down i couldn't think of a better time to do it personally. talk about going out on a high.
hackneyfox Posted 29 April 2014 Author Posted 29 April 2014 Admit it , you posted this(on 2 separate forums too) to get a reaction I posted it on here, where else did I post it? Is your stroppy post just to get a reaction? Bentley's Roof, really? We do discuss football and Leicester related topics sometimes.
AlphaMaleFox Posted 29 April 2014 Posted 29 April 2014 The message to all shite stirrers: If it is not true... http://youtu.be/mmLRTVYgEq4
Mark_w Posted 29 April 2014 Posted 29 April 2014 We do discuss football and Leicester related topics sometimes. Really, I thought that had stopped this year after it became obvious that you were all very, very wrong?

A thoughtful and reasoned reply unlike the majority so far who have just denied that there is any chance of him having a heart problem despite their being evidence of a couple of scares.

And the CIA might have blown up the twin towers and NASA might have faked the moon landings...
StanSP Posted 29 April 2014 Posted 29 April 2014 A thoughtful and reasoned reply unlike the majority so far who have just denied that there is any chance of him having a heart problem despite their being evidence of a couple of scares. They're not denying a chance of him having a heart problem. They're denying the idea that he won't be here next season because of said problems. There IS a difference.
Bert Posted 29 April 2014 Posted 29 April 2014 I was contacted by a poster from this board who will remain unamed a few weeks ago and they'd heard this too.
hackneyfox Posted 29 April 2014 Author Posted 29 April 2014 And the CIA might have blown up the twin towers and NASA might have faked the moon landings... But clearly he has had heart problems so it's not a conspiracy theory. They're not denying a chance of him having a heart problem. They're denying the idea that he won't be here next season because of said problems. There IS a difference. It's a mix of the 2. Apparently he can't have heart problems because he still drink and cycles and walks. I was contacted by a poster from this board who will remain unamed a few weeks ago and they'd heard this too. Was this someone unbelievable and what was your reply?

Apparently he can't have heart problems because he still drink and cycles and walks. Maybe I'm taking it differently. I think they're saying that even though he has heart problems, he can still do those things but not lose his job for it.
Guest MattP Posted 29 April 2014 Posted 29 April 2014 Because he eneded up being taken to hospital earlier in the season and as far as I know neither NFP or the club made a statement afterwards? And this is the conclusion jumped too? Believe me if Pearson's heart trouble is that bad he is going to have to jack it in no doctor in the World would have cleared him to return to the dugout for what was going to be a very stressful end of season run in. If something has happened since then that has changed that course then so be it, but as far as I'm aware nothing has. I was contacted by a poster from this board who will remain unamed a few weeks ago and they'd heard this too. I've been told the same down the pub by people but it's the same people who just regurgitate any old nonsense they hear and it's always wrong, I've heard everything from Fryatt to West Brom for 4million to Sven is here for the season whatever to Pearson is definitely out last season. If Pearson has made this decision I imagine it would be between him and Susan Whelen, it certainly wouldn't be common knowledge and being leaked to people. Really, I thought that had stopped this year after it became obvious that you were all very, very wrong? Bet that has been an awkward forum this year.
LanguedocFox Posted 29 April 2014 Posted 29 April 2014 The fact is that if Pearson had any kind of heart issue that would force his retirement, he would have gone by now. No waiting for his last big day, involving taking City to 100+ points, getting his hands on the oldest ever trophy etc etc, while at the same time knowing that he will never ever manage in the Prem. I mean, think about it: that would kill someone with a healthy heart. There are people called "doctors" you know - including my son and his wife. FFS, this is boll0x of the worst kind, that should be buried in this of all weeks. Close the thread someone. Now.
