  1. The championships has moved on a hell of a long way in the TWELVE years plus since Moyes was at PNE. You can't count the fact he was there in his favour. He could be a good fit though tbf. Personally I'd don't want him but if it meant it wasn't Pearson or Bruce sign him up.
  2. My bad, but think it's a it harsh to say he failed quite badly st Derby as they were in the hunt for promotion. Who knows how it would of panned out if he wasn't sacked under unusual circumstances ie Derby chairman actually not wanting promotion. He has worked under some of the greatest managers of our era, has worked at Chelsea, PSG & Real Madrid so used to dealing with egos. He is highly rated within the game, brodgers failed at Watford badly only to excel at Swansea. One failure doesn't mean he can't be a success here. I think he has the potential to be a great manager. Plus he isn't Pearson. But I can understand why some fans wouldn't want him. Just one of my personal preferences.
  3. I personally believe Moyes peak was Everton 6 years ago now. He was on a hiding to nothing at Utd admittedly. You also in my eyes can't count what he did 14 years ago at PNE as any gauge of his suitability. Plus he looks like grounds Keeper Willy from the Simpsons but rather him than Bruce Hughton or Pearson.
  4. Failed at Southampton, failed at Hull sacked twice by Leicester for falling out with the board. Embarrassed himself and the club on numerous occasions last season. I've posted this article in the other thread but sums him up perfectly and I don't want him near our club. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/leicester-city/11711901/Nigel-Pearson-was-a-bully-and-deserved-to-be-sacked-by-Leicester-City.html
  5. Failed miserably at Southampton sacked twice by Leicester for falling out with the board. Poor at Hull. And this sums up why I don't want him near our club http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/leicester-city/11711901/Nigel-Pearson-was-a-bully-and-deserved-to-be-sacked-by-Leicester-City.html
  6. Pearson overall managerial record is mediocre outside last seasons heroics though. He is an embarrassment waiting to happen.
  7. Yep a perfect storm of circumstances came together for Pearson and he did a great job in keeping them up can't deny that. But If he is such a good manager how come Sunderland Newcastle Swansea etc didn't appoint him? His overall record is poor. He is a hateful character. And I'll think you'll find it was Leicesters version of paddy Reilly who found Vardy & mahrez not Pearson personally.
  8. Fair points but I disagree that this squad needs a tough character it needs tearing apart. And Karanka, Billic & quique Flores haven't done too badly considering they didn't know the league. I want the best man available to us regardless of their nationality.
  9. If our shortlist is Hughton Bruce Pullis or Pearson... Just when you thought relegation was the lowest we could get.
  10. I'd rather not. Good coach shocking manager. Monk, & clement if we do go UK. Moyes highlight was Everton. I'd go foreign again personally if Remi does go. However I don't trust moxeys source not to be spinning a story for their own gain if you catch my drift. Cant see the board leaking it. One may speculate (in my eyes anyway) a disgruntled player who doesn't like Garde could be leaking shit to build the media pressure against him. Heard that happening quite a bit throughout the leagues
  11. Tro surley though that the fact they sacked the man who had just performed miracles to keep them up speaks volumes of the type of guy he is that they were willing and heavily criticised at the time for sacking him? He is s nasty piece of work. You can't condone racism and he basically was saying you can cause his son apologised and didn't deserve the sack for it.
  12. Should be saying this but I was told by someone who works at Leicester ( a scout as I work at Oxford United) that Pearson was sacked because of the way his son was supposedly in pearsons eyes was treated unfairly after that video where his son used racial slurs against Thai people whilst on a club in Thailand tour oh Yeah and whilst also **** a whore. He didn't/wouldn't accept his son should of been fired over it for and bringing the clubs name into disrepute . And made this point to the clubs Thai owners. This is the type of man who could be our new manager ! Vile man whose record other than last season is dubious. **** right off !
  13. Has to leave ! He may play the occasional great game but for me he sums up the malaise of our club perfectly and all that's wrong with our supposed great academy
  14. Whomever is to be our manager next season I want the majority of these turds gone regardless. Lescott, Richards, Agbonlahor etc along with Bruce can **** off !
  15. Two good managers out of work in Clement & Monk for example will get snapped up if we dither. Hollis doesn't strike me so far to be the dithering type so can see Garde going as soon as our fate is sealed. I reckon they could be a clause that dictates we can terminate his contract for minimal compensation in the event of relegation.
  16. I'll say it again Barkley's 2nd seasons stats were played 29. 2 goals 1 assist. Third season he has stepped up. Give the boy a chance
  17. This isn't 2010. TV money next season means the relegated club gets 99mill. Players (supposed) values have risen sharply. Lewis Grabban cost 8 mill FFS. Tom Ince 4.75 rising to 6 mill. Yes I do believe he is worth 10-12 mill at present given the amount of money available from the tv deal. His stats this season are poor no denying but our team is shit, he's been injured and reprimanded for his poor behaviours. Ross Barkley's 2nd seasons states were played 29 2 goals 1 assist. But yeah let's give him away for pittance cause a young lad in his second season has performed poorly and made a few dubious decisions. It's not like frank lampard & John terry never made a mistake when younger. People can change and learn from their mistakes. Before writing him off let's see shall we?
  18. I can see the youth set up being revamped under Hollis's review,and I wonder whose head will role ? For too long we have been producing players that either aren't good enough for our 1st team or haven't been given a chance. Something needs to change. I've said it before and I'll say it again (Tin hat time) if that means moving cowans or McDonald out or to another role so be it.
  19. Just remembered Garry Monk is out of work. Do we go for a manager from the uk or foreign. Murat Yakin is out of work I see but is that too much of a risk ?
  20. Only with people (potentially) actually doing the right jobs they are qualified for and not being over promoted ?
  21. Be interesting to see the value of the Under Armour deal. (Not that it takes away from his overall ineptitude) guessing with relegation it will at best match Macron ?!
  22. Another great piece of journalism from the Brum Mail Karen **** brady & Faulkner listed. Just when I thought they couldn't come up with a worst list than the other days bargain buys which included Joe Allen & Leandro Damiao they've gone and topped it !
  23. We have done poorly in the past no denying but where else are we going to get players from given the fact we will gone down as one of the worst Prem teams ever ? As I said we have done it in a bad for sure. But for every shit lower league we have signed other clubs have unearthed gems. For every Bennett there is a Cresswell and so on.
