WOW: MORE FROM NIGEL PEARSON SLATES CARDIFF CITY

Sat Oct 28, 2023 6:56 pm

WOW:

Nigel Pearson: ‘No-one here will look at that game and think Cardiff are a really good side compared to Bristol City. I don't think it was a game of a lot of a quality. It was a game with a team in a good seam that capitalised on our mistakes. They didn't outplay us.’

NIGEL PEARSON:


"Cardiff might be doing okay, but I wouldn't put them up there with the best sides. At all. I wouldn't say that at all. In our recent games we've played against Leeds, Ipswich who are going well, Leicester. They're all games we've lost by the odd goal."

Pearson felt his side were their own worst enemy at times during a Severnside derby admittedly low on quality at both ends for much of the afternoon.

"It's a competitive league," he added. "What it shows you is that if you don't make enough good decisions on the pitch, then sides will turn you over. It's a very tough league to be successful in. When you've got a very young inexperienced team and bench then it's going to be difficult.

Nigel, YOU are the Ostrich now...


From 8 years ago when he was the Leicster manager and they lost to Chelsea...

After Leicester’s loss to Chelsea Nigel Pearson became embroiled in an argument with reporter Ian Baker, ending in the manager storming out having called Baker an ostrich. Read the transcript in full below:

Nigel Pearson The bottom line is what has given us a chance to survive has been the collective spirit we have. To win four games on the spin at any level, but certainly at Premier League level, is difficult and for the players to have to deal with the amount of criticism and negativity they’ve had to endure over the course of the season has tested us. Without wanting to talk too much, the players come out with awful lot of credit for dealing with setbacks and I expect them to deal with tonight’s setback as well.

Ian Baker What criticism are you talking about?

NP Have you been on holiday for six months? Have you been away for six months?

IB No, I am just not quite sure what specific criticism you are referring to?

NP I think you must have either your head in the clouds, or been away on holiday, or reporting on a different team, because if you don’t know the answer to that question . . your question is absolutely unbelievable, the fact you do not understand where I am coming from. If you don’t know the answer to that question then I think you are an ostrich. Your head must be in the sand. Is your head in the sand? Are you flexible enough to get your head in the sand? My suspicion would be no.

IB Probably not.

NP I can, you can’t. You can’t. Listen you have been here often enough and for you to ask that question, you are either being very, very silly or you are being absolutely stupid, one of the two because for you to ask that question, I am sorry son, you are daft.

IB There hasn’t been much harsh criticism of the players.

NP You are wrong. No, you are wrong. You have been in here, I know you have so don’t give that crap with me, please don’t give that crap with me. I will smile at you because I can afford to smile at you. Now do you want to ask a different question or do you want to ask it differently. Come on, ask it. Ask it or are you not capable?

IB I just don’t know what you, erm ...

NP (mimicking his voice) You don’t know. What’s ’erm’?

IB I don’t know how you’ve taken that question.

NP Well you must be very stupid. I’m sorry. (Pearson gets up and leaves)

Horrible man. Reminds a me a lot of Gary
Monk, over inflated sense of self worth, deluded and just an all round unpleasant person

May not have outplayed you but outscored you by two goals to none.

If we're so poor what does that make you and your team when we beat you comfortably?

What an odious prick this bloke is.

What a load of bollox.

Starting from the back we have a safe keeper who does what he needs to, in a no frills way, when needed.

Our defence is solid and, in my opinion, one of the best in this division. Even when they attacked I felt confident that we wouldn't concede - and I say that despite having £40 going on to a correct score 2-1 win.

In attack we have players who can score from all over the pitch.

We are so much better than the worzels and the result showed that

Thought Bristol c ,were the poorest team I've seen this year, with the help of some questionable refereeing.

Pisshead Pearson showing up drunk for post match interviews again?

Re: WOW: Nigel Pearson: ‘No-one here will look at that game

He's salty as they lost in the week and now have lost the derby, so a distraction comment to try to placate the fans which often indicates trying to mask deeper problems. He's been there for a while and I'm sure I read a comment this week where they don't see him as ever getting them above mid table.

I instantly thought the same when I saw his comments but would just caution that Pearson is currently undergoing ‘neurological’ tests - so maybe best not say much more

So he's just been sacked, I had a feeling something was up after his salty comments :lol: I bet NWs name will be in the frame for this one too. The carrot crunchers are fuming too.

One team in it, comfortable two-nil win, Anwick didn't have to make a save, one shot on target for them all game.
