Pompey = Saints biggest rivals

Nigel = Saints ex-manager

new manager = saints have a new-ish manager

Pancake = Saints forums most ****ish 'super moderator'

 

There's a few Saints related things actually, but **** it: Lowe Out!

Posted
Pretty un Saints related, dont you think?

 

Pearson is a big admirer of our players and the first thing he will do is buy BWP and DMcG and maybe let us have Crouchie and the other fella in return.

Westwood? His bell should inspire the lads out of trouble.

I think you'll find that he's much too sensible to swap Mandaric and Leicester (on the way up) for Gaydamak and Pompey (which could all fall apart at any time, particularly if they are relegated).

Cant think of too many manager that come from the CCC without taking a club up themselves..

 

who were the last two managers to come from league 1....sturrock and ince..

 

lol, they did well

How ironic and annoying will that be if he keeps Pompey up ?????

I bet Lowe would crap himself, if it happened. This would add even more dislike of Lowe if the man he dismissed then saved our bitter rivals from the relagation we all hope they will suffer.

pompey are very interested in nigel for their new manager!

 

Really? You think that, with all the managers with Premiership experience available, they'd go for someone who managed a few games in the Championship last season and is this year managing (admittedly doing well) in League One? I think not. Pompey have far too many highly paid "stars" who wouldn't respect someone with his CV. Look at what happened to Adams. I've no doubt that if Pearson manages to get Leicester up then bigger clubs will take notice. But not now.

I can see it now

 

 

NP takes the job, gets them relegated and then rejoins us as it's his 'spiritual home'..........sound familiar?????

 

Please make it happen someone

Sturrock did, until that **** Lowe got rid of him.

Pompey would be well advised to consider Nigel Pearson as he's a bloody good manager (regardless of the minority view on here) - just can't see it happening at this time to be honest .

what has he done that is good enough to go to a team that won the FA cup last season..

 

?

Posted
A lot more than Tony Adams had done and he got the job.

and now does not..?

 

if you cant see that put adams in charge for continuity after winning the cup then I dont know...yes he failed...does that mean they will dip into league fecking 1...

 

lolers

Don't think this would be a good choice of job for Pearson, he would definatly be better off staying at Leicester.

 

Agreed why would he leave looks like Leicester have a good chance of being in the championship next season and we will pass them on the way down.

Posted
lol

 

better for him to stay at leicester than go to the prem

 

gets better

 

Why?

 

What's the point in leaving a club where he's on the up and doing well to join a club who are in trouble where he will probably fail to keep them up and end up losing his job.

 

The only good thing would be the extra income and the small chance he could keep them up, even then I don't think Pompey have a sustainable level of income to stay in the Premiership for long.

 

He's clearly a talented manager but there is definatly a case of moving up the ladder too quickly, just look at Ince, he was doing really well at MK Dons but moved straight to the Premiership. He would have been better staying with MK Dons and helping them achieve promotion to the CCC.

What's continuity got to do with anything? I don't think either Adams or Pearson should be getting the job or have got the job.

Posted
Why?

 

.

 

 

why should luggy have left plymouth for us..?

why should ince have left MK Dons for blackburn..?

 

they are in the business of bettering themselves...if he had any ambition he would take the job (not that it would be offered) as he would have some very good players there and if he was as good as some on here make out then he would keep them up and in turn attract attention fro better clubs.

 

I thought pearson would "go far"...no he should turn his nose up at a prem team with a few very good players....just to (wait for it) have acrack at the CCC next season...?

Posted

If he was offered (i don't think he will be) then he probably would take it altough like I said it would be the wrong decision. He clearly isn't ready for Premiership football yet, let alone being the 3rd manager in a season for Pompey it's just never going to end well.

 

Wether he joined Pompey or stayed with Leicester the chances are he'd be in the Championship next season.

 

I don't think any sensible Saints fan would think Pearson is suddenly ready for the Premiership at this stage in his career, a few more seasons in the lower leagues and maybe a promotion to the Premiership would do him well. Chucking a manager straight in at the deep end rarely works out well.

?

 

He's managing a team that will almost certainly win the division they're playing in - always an achievment at any level - not to mention the minor matter of saving our skins last May .

 

I've little or no understanding of this 'Nigel Pearson is he all that' argument , it's patently obvious he's a good young manager to anyone with eyes in their head I would have thought . :confused:

 

Each to his own I suppose .

Sounds a bit like Paul Ince though doesn't it.

 

Managers succeed and fail on a fairly random basis. Some succeed far more than they fail.

Players in our time are very difficult to handle,some just can't hack it although their general management skills may be excellent.I've noticed that some who avoid a certain type of player have a higher success rate than others.

You make a good point regarding players being difficult to handle . From what I can see NP's man-management skills are his strongest asset , the hand round the shoulder for Simon Gillett , the obvious total commitment he extracted from the entire team at the end of last season for instance . Players believe in and want to play for this man , that's half the battle .

 

As he climbs the football ladder he will come across more of the 'big name' high maintenance players so commonly found in the Premier League - how he handles these independently wealthy players with their delicate ego's may well determine how far Pearson goes in the game .

So is Mandaric likely to cheerfully wave goodbye to his all-conquering manager so that the arms dealer can take him? Looks like a pricey move if it happens, and I think he did great for us but he isn't exactly Mr Instant Fix now is he.

Anyway I thought Pompey were going for a dream team of Sven, Venables, Souness, Shankly, Sir Alf Ramsey, Ghandi and Mandela? - Or was that pr spin covering up the fact that they don't have two pennies to rub together?

 

They had to look down the back of the sofa to pay off Adams, and will be praying that they scrape a point in the next game to justify sticking with the cheap caretaker team.

I can really see a big name leaping at the Pompey opportunity now when Newcastle and Chelsea could be available in the summer...Pompey are so backward, we started off down this insane route years ago, they are always playing catch up and though they are pushing hard with a mental wage policy, I bet we still beat them to financial collapse.

Cheapskates.

i like what you did there! ;)

I think they'll go for Curbishley and their denials about having already met up with him (and his own) were orchestrated lies. Either that or Sven will get the chop for being crap and suddenly be interested in where Portsmouth is on a map. It's the bit marked shiiitehole.
