5waller5 Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 What on earth are you talking about. I presume Bruno Berners personal blog isn't as good a source of info as your mates on facebook. And yes I've spoken to several staff who work there privately, I've listened to the Birch also numerous times repeating similar stuff said by them and by Berner and Gallagher and others about how he treats people. I don't expect the bloke to get on with everyone, nobody does. But you calling him a bully goes against pretty much everything I have heard about him. Getting arsey with a few people now and again does not a bully make. Having a few players blogs saying he's a nice guy does not a nice guy make. It's opinion. Ours differ. The only difference between us is that I don't insult you for having different opinions to mine.
Alf Bentley Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 What about Harry on a short term deal? Harry Kane? Harry Enfield? Harry Styles? Harry Potter? Prince Harry? Debbie Harry? Prince Harry's not a bad shout, actually. He's on the dole now after quitting his job, isn't he? He'll probably be desperate for work given the benefits sanctions he'll be facing for giving up a job voluntarily... Debbie Harry could be a better option though. "Picture this": she could be the "Sunday Girl" for those live Sky fixtures and could get us "Dreaming" again. "Union City Blue" sounds like the pashun we need. Just so long as she doesn't spend her time "Hanging on the Telephone", saying "Call Me" like that willy puller Redknapp....but I know you're not crazy enough to want someone like him appointed.

5waller5 Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 Red5 and Waller have come out with some serious shite. "Another manager would have taken us up" - how do you know that genius? We only spent 10 years trying but hey ho keep demeaning how well Nigel has done since he returned to the club. As for Waller, your opinions on football are so bad and in my view wrong that you have been forever placed on the "don't bother reading" list. I take that as a compliment from someone that's been on mine for quite some time. Doh!!

Or shall we take a look at your posting history on here?

I honestly think any half decent manager would have got us up with the backing Pearson has had. I would say Leicester have had one of the biggest budgets in the championship since the thais took over. Sven had the backing but was a busted flush in my eyes.
Babylon Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 Just out of interest ... What year did Bruno Berner leave Leicester??? So... what you're saying is he wasn't a bully, but he is now then. Come off it.
5waller5 Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 So... what you're saying is he wasn't a bully, but he is now then. Come off it. That's exactly what I'm saying .... The pressure of the two very different situations has made him react differently. Surely even you can't fail to recognise that different situations provoke different reactions?? Never been in a relationship that was great but turned sour?? Never had a human interaction that you thought this person has changed??? Now this is just childish - just because you're not using insults NOW doesn't make you holier than me. Or shall we take a look at your posting history on here? You should .... you'd learn a lot!!!
Corky Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 Yes we know, but he had better backing, and like I said we'll never know if another manager would have done the same or even better, Better backing than who? Sven was given the best resources to work with at the club, Pearson achieved promotion on a lesser budget and reducing costs. The wages were good but the transfer fees were nothing like the money Sven was trying to throw about. £9 million for Jelavic, £8 million for Hooper I seem to recall.

I would say Leicester have had one of the biggest budgets in the championship since the thais took over. Sven had the backing but was a busted flush in my eyes. What backing? The only backing Pearson had was the club resisting bids for Morgan from someone & Vardy from Southampton, everything else Pearson did was about reducing costs. Sure we had more money than many, but we're a bigger club than many... so of course we're going to have Even upon promotion and the doorway to £120m TV money + parachute payments... He was hardly backed, certainly nothing compared to the investment that has gone into the likes of Hull, never mind Southampton who really did kick on to the next level after promotion

Right, well Berner left at the end of the 2011 season when we were also not doing very well. No bullying then. Pearson also didn't like Stringer and had stopped talking to him previously. Perhaps that was bullying... or perhaps who just took exception to some idiot accusing him of things on the radio without foundation. He was also accused of not picking players because of his ego etc... you know the wonderful talents of Danns, Mills, Beckford, SSL. Who went on to.... errrr the bottom of the champ or lower. Losing your rag a few times doesn't make you a bully. I'll say it again, the bloke has made enough mistakes this year without chucking things about like that with very little foundation.
Guest Col city fan Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 None of my mates post on here. I think one did once then quickly left.... None of them call Pearson a bully. Most of them want him to stay actually. Bet you never thought I'd say that did ya. They all agree the team is crap AND they all think Cambiasso has been probably the best player, but has still been bang average.
Babylon Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 None of them call Pearson a bully. Feeling the pressure, yes. A grumpy git, yes. Lost his rag when he shouldn't, yes. A bully... I really don't think so.

He was hardly backed, certainly nothing compared to the investment that has gone into the likes of Hull, never mind Southampton who really did kick on to the next level after promotion I was comparing our budget to other championship clubs. I cant think of many in there that had a bigger budget than us, Nugent was probably one of the top earners in that league.

Some of you ex premier league clubs getting parachute payments would also have very large budgets. Money, doesn't guarantee anything as we found out under Sven and as Forest are finding out along with dozens of clubs up and down the leagues quite often.
red5 Posted 17 March 2015 Author Posted 17 March 2015 Better backing than who? Sven was given the best resources to work with at the club, Pearson achieved promotion on a lesser budget and reducing costs. The wages were good but the transfer fees were nothing like the money Sven was trying to throw about. £9 million for Jelavic, £8 million for Hooper I seem to recall. Yes we all know about Sven, my reply was to, he got us promoted after 10 years, even Sven might have got us promoted given time
Danno Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 Yes we know, but he had better backing, and like I said we'll never know if another manager would have done the same or even better,Possibly the stupidest thing i've ever read on here. Congrats.

davieG Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 BEWARE the Ides of March! Because Premier League history shows that after that date there is very little point in stabbing your leader in the back. By MATTHEW DUNN PUBLISHED: 00:10, Tue, Mar 17, 2015 Certainly by today’s date, March 17, managers appointed are five times more likely to take their team further down the table than up it. The only new arrival later in the season than this during the 21-year history of the Premier League to have had a positive impact was when Chris Coleman took Fulham all the way from 15th to 14th over the final five games of 2003. Sunderland have already experimented with a managerial change this late in the season when Martin O’Neill left the club on March 30, 2013, to be replaced by Paolo Di Canio a day later. For all the fire the Italian brought to the job, the Black Cats sank from 16th place to 17th, clawing on to survival by just a single point. Trouble is, such Red Adair acts of life-saving heroics are enshrined in the club’s history. With Sunderland floundering in 20th place in the Championship towards the end of the 1994-95 season, Peter Reid was called in to replace Mick Buxton with only seven games to go. He lost just once, and the club were saved. GETTY Paolo Di Canio became Sunderland manager in March 2013 but was sacked six months laterBut even his credentials were tested when he was brought in to rescue Leeds in the top flight on March 21, 2003. He inherited Terry Venables’ side in 15th position and eight games later the side were a creditable… 15th. Even Reid admits there is no rocket science involved; the new manager at the Stadium of Light will face a race against the clock to make an impact and may have to resort to some fairly left-field tactics if he is to turn around their current run of results. “It is impact management,” Reid said of his fire-fighting exploits recently. “You are always thinking on your feet. You know you have only got so long to do it. “It is not silky football, it is a battle when you get down there and it is about getting the players up for the matches. I remember what I did at Sunderland. I took them out for a meal and got a few drinks down them to relax them. “That seems out of vogue nowadays with all the sports scientists but they are just the off-the-wall things you do now and then. There are things you need to do that might not be anything to do with football. But it is always that bonding that helps.”
Sniffer Clark Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 They say there is something written in his contract that leicester cannot sack him until they are relegated !!!!
Oxfordfox83 Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 I've looked everywhere but can't find anywhere that says Pearson's sacked, surely he had to go before Poyet. What an interesting topic, I don't think anyone's brought this up yet.
red5 Posted 17 March 2015 Author Posted 17 March 2015 What an interesting topic, I don't think anyone's brought this up yet. 1 day and 247 posts later
Oxfordfox83 Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 1 day and 247 posts later Lots of people buy One Direction tracks, doesn't make them music...
sulfoxide Posted 17 March 2015 Posted 17 March 2015 One thing is certain, the owners, manager & the majority of the players have caused one heck of a dispndent fan base!!!
