Supervillan78 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Hollis was talking recently about stability. Pearson is far from stable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot divorce Pearson's character just because he has a record of working with lower league clubs under constraints. I can totally ignore his 'recent work'. If he becomes manager of AVFC I will have major difficulties. We should imho be above employing such a rocket polisher explain exactly why Mike do we really know his character? perhaps someone knows more than I do, about him.

Where otherwise reasonable human beings are accepting of somebody like Nigel **** Pearson as manager of Aston Villa Football Club. Horrible. That is a cheap shot, if I may say. Randy Lerner has not in anyway shape or form influenced my opinion on a Football managers ability to manage a team. I have heard plenty of stories of football managers not liked etc,etc,etc They are not there to win a popularity parade.....Ron Saunders himself was an acquired taste, negated by his success.....personally I loved him, but Bobby Mac who had to play for him didn't....thats life I'm afraid. I don't know the full low down on the life of Nigel Pearson, his Character does not adversely concern me( I haven't got to interview him), his ability to make something of Aston Villa Football club does.....given the opportunity. If we all wanted to make out a case.....no one would be signed. Ps I like Remi Garde as a person , not as our manager ( in terms of results alone) Edited March 20, 2016 by TRO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That same boardroom who completely and utterly failed Remi in January? **** this crap man. I share your frustration completely. It's **** bone-headed. What worries me more in that article is that it's partly in response to losing support in the dressing room. Surely the board aren't seriously contemplating placating those shitbags? I'll be pissed off if Garde is sacked but what will piss me off even more is if serious efforts aren't made to cull the squad. Many of those players are a cancer on this club - pathetic little parasites who should **** right off. They have to go before anyone else. Just get them the **** out the bunch of words removed. I **** despise most of the first team, I really do. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Depends what we're going to do this summer really. If we want to truly change the philosophy and have a massive clear out of the poisonous elements, we should keep Garde. If we aren't going to do that, Pearson would be a good choice to whip them into shape in the short term. I want to to with the former, personally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is, it's absolutely imperative that we clear out the poison if we're to have any chance of coming back up. It doesn't necessarily have to be Garde doing it (although I'd much rather it was) but somebody has to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Chindie Posted March 20, 2016 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted March 20, 2016 Pearson is an unhinged embarrassment. He can't act like a grown man let alone someone in the spotlight. He shouldn't be anywhere near this club. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The man hasn't broken the law to my knowledge , and I am fed up with the lilly livered approach of the footballing side of the club. he is a bit of a tough guy for sure as was Ron S If its on line and there is nothing else then I am aware of his misgivings and the misgivings of many more managers with much bigger profiles than Nigel Pearson. Quite Frankly, I am Peed off with some fans character assassinating managers i.e Sherwood with not much more than a dislike of their personality. Remi Has come along with a very engaging demeanor admittedly a shocking squad, but still players week in week out making the same mistakes. Its not a bloody library we are running its a physically involved and engaging football club. We need to man up, even the pundits now are working hard to suppress their sniggers......and we have the audacity to question Nigel Pearson and his hard man tactics......( not to say he will be joining us) God only knows if we had of Had Dave Basset/Bobby Gould and the crazy Gang......and yes I would swap them for this lot. PS If we don't man up quick as a football team ...we are dead. Edited March 20, 2016 by TRO 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted March 20, 2016 Moderator Share Posted March 20, 2016 Footballers have changed. They'll remove a manager they don't like pretty quickly. Even the very best don't get to bully players any more, ask Jose. The sergeant major manager is dead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
