I think on recent performaces the most we can expect to see is a point for each of the home games.
 
I see no reason at all not to take twelve points. The only stumbling block we should face is hull, who by far have the best quality players of the list. If Sousa is a decent manager we should get 12 points from that line up.


We're going to win all the next four then?
 
I've been told that NP & Milan have no axe to grind, and that NP's departure was soley down to the new owners insisting that PS was installed prior to the take over. Also told that Abe was a signing by the new board rather than PS.

If true, what worries me is that it would appear one of the better signings PS has made is not even one of his own. And if the board insisted on his appointment I can't see them giving him the tin tac just yet :102:
 
Those who say the new owners insisted on Sousa being manager are spouting sheer nonsense. He has the next two games only and then they will sack him. They have invested a third of their fortune in our club. Does anyone seriously think they will let this situation continue?

Pearson left because he tried to call Milan's bluff over more money. That's why he never signed his contract and the negotiations dragged on.
 
Fact or speculation?

It was clear NP wasn't happy with the money situation, he made that obvious towards the end of last season because of some of the things he said. But that's not a good enough reason for MM to let him go the way he did.

My source at the club leads me to believe it's as near a fact as some of the other barmy stuff doled out here.

In this instance, you are peddling whatever you were accused of peddling in that other thread.

I don't know whether the Thais will allow the situation to continue but I do know that Sousa would not have been at LCFC without their insistence.

And I can't imagine where you get the idea from that Pearson never signed his contract. He was under a one-year rolling contract at the club right up to the time that he resigned and the club accepted his resignation. There was no bluff because there were no negotiations.

Nigel Pearson has said he can give no assurances about his future as Leicester City manager.

Even before their devastating Championship play-off penalty shoot-out defeat at Cardiff on Wednesday night, Pearson had drawn up plans for pre-season and City's next campaign, and is looking to the future at the Walkers Stadium.

However, he said nothing was guaranteed in football and he has still to agree a new contract as City boss, although he has one year remaining on his existing three-year deal. He said that the ball is in City's court over any further negotiations.

So your tactic is that anything anyone says against what you believe is a conspiracy or made up?

No tactic at all. Even you could point to plenty of times when the Mercury has been talking balls.



It was widely reported that he'd been offered a new contract. He even mentioned it on some of his post match interviews.

There was a desire from one side or the other to move from a 'rolling' to a 'fixed-term' contract. It seems though that the necessity to get rid of him removed the need for any discussion on a new contract. It was just never going to happen.
 
And I'll probably be fuming, and saying I'll never go to Portugal if they're all that arrogant.


Portugal is a fabulous place. Sousa should go there immediately.
