Watford sack Nigel Pearson

[William Treseder]

Never took much notice of him as a player, but since he’s been in management, Pearson has seemed both emotionally erratic, and eccentric.
The kind of guy you want to like, but he keeps distancing himself with strange behaviour.
He appears to have plenty of pent up anger in him, and always seems as though he’s seconds from exploding into rage.
Looks a handy bastard as well 😁

I always thought of him as a moody fuucker who you would t want to get the wrong side of.

He’s a complicated individual but like you, I can’t help myself but wanting to like him.

Drinks on his own at the end of the bar, when it’s your round you never want to engage in conversation with him because you’ve seen him many times in the past strike up a chat with someone only to disagree with everything the other person says. Avoid going for a piss the same time as him as well, very difficult to read his mood with his expressionless face. As I said earlier, weirdo!......hope he doesn’t read this thread

He still lives in Sheffield and I have seen him a few times walking his dog in Endcliffe Park. You know that saying about dogs and their owners looking the same? Well, I wouldn't pick a fight with his dog!

That's rather an amusing statement, if I may say.

‘Rather an‘ or ‘a rather’?

I don’t see him owning a chihuahua for some reason.

Dobermann or Rottweiler?

[Optimistic Nick]

I love his appearances on athletico mince.

I can't remember the breed (seen it a couple of times but a while ago). It was a big, powerful dog. Well behaved, but with a bit of menace! Just like Pearson.

A good English Fight!

I actually like the guy.

I wanted Watford to go down before this absurd decision, now, if there is any justice, they will go down - who'd take a job with a club that does things like this? Plenty is probably the sad answer.

Villa win tonight so hopefully little Watford down, just deserts!

[NYCBlue]

Also, one of only two managers to beat Liverpool this season. They might have stood a chance against Arsenal who now have nothing to play for in the League with Pearson in charge. Madness.

Both ways are acceptable, old fruit

I think most would prefer Villa to go down

That was exactly my question. Thanks for looking it up 👍

That's my problem, is my desire to see Villa stay up stronger than my one to see Watford go down? I'm not sure it is. Ideally, Bournemouth will do the business at Everton and send them both down, but I've no faith in Arsenal at all when it comes to them playing sides at the bottom and although West Ham could technically still go down with a freakish set of results, they're safe in reality, so I can see them and Villa possibly carving up a draw if Watford are getting beat,

Pep, Arteta in the league as well, Lampard, Smith, Ancelotti & Simeone twice in cups. Not bad company to be in though.

Villa to stay up for me, a proper big old club fit for the Premier. I was delighted with the result last night and hope to see Watford and Bournemouth join Norwich in being relegated. I appreciate my views are in the minority.

I’m with you Dorcus,Villa are a proper Premier League Club, we are much bigger than Watford and Bournemouth put together they can’t get a 30,000 crowd!
