Looks like another wannabe is going to fall by the wayside so I would say no damage done. Probably the opposite. DC I suppose could easily have caved in to his alleged wage demands of 10k a week or whatever on a lengthy contract but didnt and look now at master Hirst now. He isnt exactly banging goals in at championship level and will possibly end up a journeyman being loaned to one lower division club then another by his parent club until they off load. Was always going to be the case, not because of his greed or his advisors/fathers greed but because of his actual ability to make it as an elite level footballer. For the definition of nepotism in football, see George Hirst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppers Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Pearson would be amazing. If we can get him on board and find a way to let him assemble a squad it would be amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddyowl Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I'll stick my neck out and say that there will be no Nigel Pearson nor Paul Cook. DC will be looking to employ a foreign coach IMO, Jemez, Weiler, Morais to name a few will be the ones that are on his radar and more likely appointments than a British candidate.

Orlando_Trustful Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I would take Big Nige in a flash. I don't think he would come here and I also don't think he could work with an owner like DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonofbert2 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 A lot of folk talking about him falling out with the Thai owners at Leicester but he obviously rebuilt that bridge when he managed their feeder club in Belgium and was part of the stitch-up re. George Hirst. I think this would be the main obstacle to him coming here from DC’s point of view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might work in his favour if he can convince DC that at the time his loyalty was to Leicester and not SWFC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was strange when we had the pre-season friendly there after what had happened and remember, DC was sold Wednesday by MM based on the Leicester model and using the same advisors.

Yep, I’m thinking the same. The Paul cook link from Friday has materialised into nothing. Same as when the Cowly’s were linked prior to monk getting the gig. It’s going to be an unheard of, unproven yes man from abroad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a point, but in reality who could work with Chansiri ? People can work with him, Carlos proved that but I suppose it depends how well the manager is doing . Chansiri has shown a degree of patience with one or two managers, there was clearly a huge clash of personalities, cultures and a breakdown of trust between him a Pulis. If the shortlist is Cook and Pearson then I’d be happy with either. Chansiri is less likely to be grabbed around the throat by Cook so he would probably choose him. What we don’t want is a timid yes man who is frightened to speak his mind . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This he lasted 5 months at Watford before being sacked as they were 2 games from relegation . lasted about the same at derby where he was a disaster Sacked by a second division Belgium club as they plunged downwards. He is trading on admittedly strong work in two spells at Leicester. I am no fan of Paul cook but I would certainly have him over Nigel pearson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has also had accusations of being a bully all over the national press.... Plus grabbed the neck of a player. But he did play for us, so that makes him a success...you know, like Wilson and Turner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poite Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 If chansiri wanted to turn the tables a bit following the latest disaster of a press conference where he alienated 90% of the fanbase bringing Pearson in would be a good first step 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
