1976_Child Posted 28 December, 2008 Posted 28 December, 2008 So Nigel Pearson has got Leicester to the top of League One. If we played them now would we beat them? My answer: no.
Papa Shango Posted 28 December, 2008 Posted 28 December, 2008 No. One of the biggest mistakes we'll ever make getting rid of Pearson. ****ing Lowe ****.
Toomer Posted 28 December, 2008 Posted 28 December, 2008 (edited) So Nigel Pearson has got Leicester to the top of League One. If we played them now would we beat them? My answer: no. Agree and we would struggle against MK Dons as well. Edited 28 December, 2008 by Toomer
Glasgow_Saint Posted 28 December, 2008 Posted 28 December, 2008 we would finish towards the bottom of league 1 with our team, so no we would lose to leicester and most other teams in that league
marklcfc Posted 28 December, 2008 Posted 28 December, 2008 You would beat us 2-0 like you always do at St Marys.
CHAPEL END CHARLIE Posted 28 December, 2008 Posted 28 December, 2008 Not only would we lose (in all probability) - but we'd deserve to lose after the way Rupert Lowe and his sidekick treated Nigel Pearson .
badgerx16 Posted 28 December, 2008 Posted 28 December, 2008 Does this thread actually prove anything? It proves that Leicester fans read TSF
ottery st mary Posted 28 December, 2008 Posted 28 December, 2008 We would beat them home and away and lose to every other team in the Div 1 and get relegated. Mind you we are swopping places with Leicester in May or is it Feb 09
Alain Perrin Posted 28 December, 2008 Posted 28 December, 2008 Remind me who got relegated last season you bunch of defeatist numpties
bridge too far Posted 29 December, 2008 Posted 29 December, 2008 Remind me who got relegated last season you bunch of defeatist numpties Remind me who WASN'T their manager last season
SaintRobbie Posted 29 December, 2008 Posted 29 December, 2008 So Nigel Pearson has got Leicester to the top of League One. If we played them now would we beat them? My answer: no. Not a chance in hell. In fact I genuinely believe this team would struggle against most League 1 sides. I am concerned on 2 fronts if Lowe is allowed to continue with this farce: 1. We WILL relegate (certainty). But we will also sell the 3-4 decent nippas we have thus further eroding our hollowed out squad. That means WE WILL NOT PROMOTE BACK TO THE CCC FOR SEVERAL YEARS AT BEST. 2. Once we erode this Leauge 2 standard team still further - we will inevitably fall into League 2.
sadoldgit Posted 29 December, 2008 Posted 29 December, 2008 Nigel Pearson is doing well with Leicester so fair play to him. He didn't do so well with us last season but did just enough to keep us up. Somehow that translates to he would have done better this season with the same resources as JP for many fans. There is no guarantee that would have happened. Same with Redknapp. Has success with Portsmouth but failed horribly here. Strachan faailed horribly at Coventry but turned his career around with us. McMemeny had his best times here but is reviled by Sunderland fans and achieved nothing of note after he left us. Yes Leicester would beat us because they are full of confidence and flying high. I expect they would still beat us if Pearson was here and not there.
Thedelldays Posted 29 December, 2008 Posted 29 December, 2008 when people use pearson doing well at leicester as a sign of what could have been they are stupid.. do sunderland pawn for maccarthy back.. do spurs look down at reading and think...damn, why did we have to go with ramos/redknapp when coppell is flying in the CCC.. stupid stupid stupid..

up and away Posted 30 December, 2008 Posted 30 December, 2008 So Nigel Pearson has got Leicester to the top of League One. If we played them now would we beat them? My answer: no. Equally, if Nigel Pearson was still here, would he beat Leicester on that sort of run?
1976_Child Posted 30 December, 2008 Author Posted 30 December, 2008 Equally, if Nigel Pearson was still here, would he beat Leicester on that sort of run? And more importantly if Strachan was still with us would we beat Celtic at the moment?
forever a red and white Posted 30 December, 2008 Posted 30 December, 2008 pointless thread. yes gettinmg rid of a pearson was a mistake. but we can't turn back trhe clock so lets get over it and concentrate on our team, our manager and our club.
St.Thomas7 Posted 30 December, 2008 Posted 30 December, 2008 I think we'd draw. :-P My Missus is from Leicester and tells me they'd destroy us. She also loves to tell me how funny it is that we're going to swap places in May... I still think it'd be a draw... as is the nature of us playing Teams that actually play football. Is good to see Matty Oakley doing well for them though.
St Paul Posted 30 December, 2008 Posted 30 December, 2008 Equally, if Nigel Pearson was still here, would he beat Leicester on that sort of run? If Jan was in charge and Lowe Chairman of Leicester we would
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 30 December, 2008 Posted 30 December, 2008 Equally, if Nigel Pearson was still here, would he beat Leicester on that sort of run? Would Leicester be on that sort of run, hypothesising that Pearson would be here and we have no idea who their manager, and his success rate, might be?
