Yeah, let me know when it happens......

Yeah probably, and a bassMacky did I see a photo of you with a drum?
I have no idea why Nigel Pearson was invited back to Leicester. He is not the style of manager that I like, but nobody could suggest that his first stint was not successful. He took over the biggest team in the First Division, but one with little money, cobbled together a squad that gained promotion at the first attempt and, on the bounce squeezed into the Championship play-off positions.
Nothing in this, or the remainder of his managerial record suggests that his strength is taking a club with money, and creating instant success: something which is possible, but takes a certain type of manager.
Nigel Pearson has been in control for just short of a full year. He has had two transfer windows and spent a considerable amount of money. He has signed several good players - and some dross but, I would challenge anyone to put their hand on their heart and say that we are one micro-step nearer to promotion than the day that Sven walked out the door.
has he? I think you'll probably find he's spent very little if anything when you look at what's been recouped through transfer fees and reduction in the wage bill.
Justt looked at it and Pearson has released/sold 19 players since he has come in. I didn't realise it was as many as that. He has brought in 9 players in that time.
And a balaclava.Yeah probably, and a bass
Out of interest, how many of those were first team players?
...and more to the point, WHY?????? The board keep saying that promotion this season is the aim: are they lying? I may not be NP's biggest fan, but I cannot see the way to pin the blame on him.....
Getting rid of players like Howard, Oakley and Tunchev is a good, painless way to reduce the age bill.
David Ronald Jones was manager of Cardiff City from May 2005 until May 2011. Total promotions = Zero.Yes, but why not replace them?
Anyway, I shall now play my master card which will, I am confident, bring 100% of TB'ers over to my way of thinking:

There ya go Cafe.
Absolutely ridiculous. No-one's even waving their shoes.
There's a fine line between mauling and mincing and I'm not sure that the Hull fans there know themselves what they are doing.
MattB ,it will be an uphill stuggle to continue with Nige after today.
Mauled.
