supersiggi Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 It's often cited that big Nige has said he wouldn't manage either Sheffield side as he lives in the city. Can anybody provide a link to an article where he is quoted saying this? Intrigued as to whether it's fact or an urban myth, like big cats scavenging through bins at Lodge Moor or Abdi being able to do 10 one arm press ups. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will rue the missed opportunity to make McCarthy a deal he couldn't turn down and bang some heads together - Pearson is another former CB in that mould.

Lord Snooty Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 There was an interview on Football Focus with Clemmitt about 2 years go when he said it. It was also mentioned on Radio Sheffield. He reiterated in person to a group of chaps at the150th. He told me in person when I bumped into him at Art in the Park 18 months ago also. That said money talks. That said again....we haven't got any. Hope this helps. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He once said it as a diplomatic answer and folk have run with it ever since Is there a person in the world that would rather commute than work down the road ?

casbahowl Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Sat next to us at the 150th do at Ponds Forge. During the meal asked him his views on managing us one day and his only reply was “Too disrespectful to discuss a job when someone (Carlos) already in the position”. He certainly never ruled it out. Was fantastic company all night, sharing some brilliant anecdotes from his time with us. Really does have an affinity to the club ........ who knows? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abdi can do 100 one arm press ups. 50 on each arm. He can't run up and down a pitch to save his life though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheffsteel Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 I heard an interview with Pearson on Radio Sheffield about 1 of 2 years ago. He admitted that he still has strong feelings towards Wednesday. Then Radio Sheffield asked him if he could ever see himself being the manager at Hillsboro. He laughed and said he couldnt even consider applying for any job at Hillsboro. He explained that he currently lives in the Sheffield area with his family life and personal happiness being a top priority. Said he enjoys the freedom of mingling with the locals and if he became SW then this would prove difficult. Basically if he became SW manager he feels he’d need to live outside South Yorkshire and he clearly doesn’t want to move house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Tom Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 There’s also the small matter of the circumstances surrounding his and Pearson Jr’s sacking from Leicester City FC by Thai owners. Be a bit of an awkward interview, wouldn’t it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
