lexicon Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Sale needs to go through before we get a manager in, assuming that the sale is in fact happening soon. No sale, no point, no hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberman Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Might as well wait now. Not only if a takeover is happening, but the managerial merry-go-round will be in full effect in a couple of weeks. The options for out of work managers will be much wider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or all the good managers will be snapped up and we'll have to choose between Joe Kinnear and Paul Ince 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykeyb Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 According to Steve Gibson @ Boro he has said that Pearson has "already gone to Villa"...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he meant to a holiday villa in marbella.... This wouldn't be a progressive appointment in my opinion and would certainly indicate that we're not been sold anytime soon either.

Richard Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 People have been calling for a short term to get us up then we progress from there Pearson has championship experience, got Leicester up and they progressed after. So dont we want a short term option now then? Not saying I support Pearson by the way but as a short term, if in fact that is where we are going, and to sort out the arseholes, then maybe he is ideal 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't need someone to come in and sort out the arseholes if we prioritise and rid the club of said arseholes. By bringing in a 'task master/arrognant dick' I could see us taking the cheaper option of retaining the element at the club in the hope it gets fixed. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 IF Pearson is brought I at least hope it isn't in the hope that he can "sort out" the poisonous players at the club because we should be way past that point now. words removed like Lescott, Gabby etc should be ruthlessly disposed of. There can be no compromises. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not want people to think my post favours a short term fix. I do not believe that is the way we need to go, just saying I have seen a few people suggest that is what we should do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoony Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I don't see the problem with any of McCarthy, Pearson or Bruce. Proven Championship managers who have eached achieved promotion. We are not a Premier League team guys... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
