Time for Stringer to go

[Boy Genius]

I felt so embarrassed and angry listening to those questions that prat Stringer asked at the press conference. It is no wonder nobody likes him and looks upon him as a joke. I used to give him the benefit of the doubt, but no longer.

I say to BBC Radio Leicester, please get rid of this joke of a presenter / commentator

 

[Scarby]

what questions did he ask?

just stupid irrelevant ones, and trying to attack Milan on the Pearson saga, not the place for those questions.

 

[drummindefender]

He basically asked if Milan would like to respond to the comments made by Pearson

It seems people would rather he asked standard questions like "What made you decide to come to Leicester" to be met with the same standard response.

TBH I tuned in to watch the unveiling of SGE, not some grade E presenter trying to gain some points somewhere. Why didn't he ask him questions then about his Inland Revenue investigation?

 

[Ike O'Noclassed]

TBF he did ask Top a question (something about Sven being known in Thailand), which I can only think was so he wouldn't feel left out.

Because thats not related to Svens Managerial appointment. Sven wouldn't be here if the whole Pearson saga hadn't happened.

 

[The Major]

If he hadn't asked those questions people would have said he was sucking up to the club. Journalists have to ask awkward questions or there is no point in asking anything.

 

[City Fan]

What's to say Radio Leicester didn't tell him to ask those questions? No one knows the facts.

I posted my thoughts in another thread:

He was trying to put words in Pearson's mouth though, Pearson said he had a poor relationship with the Chief Executive Lee Hoos, but the way Stringer worded his question he made it sound like Pearson had issues with Mandaric and that he didn't feel Mandaric supported him, something that Pearson - who chose his words very carefully in that interview - never said.

Sloppy, sloppy journalism from an absolute ****wit, he's an absolute cretin and should not be allowed anywhere near our football club. You're right - someone should be asking these questions, but it shouldn't be this complete and utter loon. What happened to the days when the BBC employed ****ing journalists rather than Apprentice rejects?

He's a shit commentator and summariser, he has no journalistic value, and his constant smugness on Twitter claiming that he has insider knowledge is ridiculous. He knows nothing, he has no value.

would be a very lame journalist if he is told what to ask, like having a dog and barking yourself.

 

[Micky]

To be fair to stringer, he's not really got a lot to live up to. The previous incumbents have been pretty average.

 

[spionfox]

It wasn't the time to bring it up I agree, but it was joyous to see Mandaric obviously riled!

If it was after the questions to/and or about Sven - moving club forward etc., I think it is very legitimate.

Milan is a serial manager sacker. God knows what the pay-off to Paulo was. Sven will not have come cheap, either salary or team investment.

If Pearson's comments are at odds with Milan's, then the public/supporters have a right to know if Sven is likely to end up as another expensive 9 match wonder.

It may now be Thai money, but every million that is wasted on paying off managers is a million that cannot be spent on team development. That does not take into account stability for the team and club either.

 

[lanxfox jnr]

When he asked about Pearson having a poor relationship with MM, he said he was a great manager and great friend and you have got your information wrong I nearly laughed :icon_lol:

 

[Micky]

Milan may have his critics. He is a business man and probably a dodgy one at that. BUT for all the negatives, without him there is not a chance in hell we would have:
A. Been bought by some ambitious thai millionaires who are willing to spend big on the club.
B. Appointed Sven Goran Eriksson as manager

Time will tell whether these are good moves but it is certainly exciting times at city.

So what if we have got thai millionaires or Sven Goran Eriksson. We're still currently in the Championship. The closest we got to achieving something was last season

Thank God. A sensible post!

We are but if their wallets match their ambition, I am sure we will be in the premier in the near future. A dangerous presumption to make but I just get the impression that these owners are going to make every effort to get us there.

As previously discussed, how many teams in recent years have got promoted from this league because of a massive cash injection?
