He’s a member of the rebel alliance and a traitor. Take him away.

I can imagine if he falls foul of the anti doping laws..... "these are not the roids for are looking for".

It's okay to miss him. It's okay to miss bright, white trainers and a grey buzz cut. It's okay to miss him slowly mentally unravelling in front of the press and choking James MacArthur.
I do. We all do.

Nice interview with Nige in the Guardian today. He's as compelling a character as ever.

I'll never stop loving Nigel Pearson. I'll never forget the match against Hull in the 2010/11 season, which was Pearson's first return to the King Power Stadium. The match ended 1-1 and every player who'd played under him hugged him as they walked off.

Need a firmer grip than that to convince him to sign for Bristol City

If I was Mahrez I'd rather sign for them and that mad ostrich strangler than us after last night's ****ing debacle.

Highly improbable they’re his best options tbh

I remember in our Great Escape period people used to sing 'Ostrich Army' from the terraces. That kind of humour is English football at it's best.
