mykeyb Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Ironically that does seem early for them to get rid of him even though I wouldnt be upset if we sacked RDM now either. Strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 (edited) So glad we didn't even up with that word removed. More than likely, being the bully that he is, that he has tried to kick someone's head in. EDIT : There may be some news breaking about him in the recent Telegraph 'investigations' Edited September 27, 2016 by rodders0223 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange. It is early - but I think they're the only team in the league with very good reasons to sack their manager. Scored only 3 goals and he's already slagging off the players. Poison.

Lichfield Dean Posted September 27, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted September 27, 2016 As much as I have been disappointed with RDM so far, never in a million years would I have wanted Pearson at Villa. He is just too much of a live wire. Will be interesting to see how this unfolds and what action Derby take. Could a different manager kick them into gear? Or will they disintegrate totally like we did last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted September 27, 2016 Moderator Share Posted September 27, 2016 Suspended because of his "behaviour". I wonder if someone's got a black eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Could it be he has something to do with the scandal involving Big sam at the moment? Other managers apparently are in trouble as well. It could also just be that Derby are shite and Pearson is a loose cannon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
