he is yes

[Ordar]

So interestingly, even though Sky are saying that Pearson is our number 1 choice, Steve Clarke is now odds on with all the betting sites, with Pearson drifting to 15/8 on Skybet

(I know that betting odds are manipulated by betting)

[Texas White]

Either would be ok for me. Onward and upward

[Oakeshott]

Clarke would be a better fit for us than Pearson, I think, and I hope the current odds reflect the reality of the situation.

[Fulham Tup North]

and he is still 15/8 with Skybet?
If this is right then Lump On!
I don't gamble!

[GrahamG]

I'd be quite happy if he joins. It really is up to Rigg to ensure that we get the man who can get us promoted and that man understands the need to uphold our club's reputation and traditions as well as being successful. Simples! 

[St Eve]

This would be good news

Whether you like Nigel Pearson or not, I personally feel he is the best available man for the job, all things considered, plus despite what Lighthouse accuses him of, he gets on very well with his Granny, and is very kind to her.
Although the club are not running a Burma Railway, at the same token, they are not running a holiday camp either.
Pearson I would  have thought should get the best out of the squad, and individual players. He may even replace Ross with a proper Captain, he will command his Technical Area, and his players will know he is there, he has presence, and will change the teams soft under belly, and give us a hard edge, which we desperately lack.
One of his biggest merits is that he has done it before and promoted a team under his command.
He is a mans man, and that's what some players need, and he will have a lot of contacts.
Do not always judge a book by it's cover.

Should he be appointed may I be the first to say - Oh no not him, he is awful and rude to his granny and can't control his temper.

Should he not be appointed may I say - Why didn't we try harder to get Pearson he would have been perfect.

Yes but have you ever met his Granny ?.

I hear she is an ostrich

As of 510pm, he is the odds on favourite with Pearson drifting out. Not sure if that's good or not

[Neil D]

Am I the only one still hoping its Montella? Although, this seems completely dead.

I hope you are peace with your Oneness.

You're all Ostriches if you believe Nigel Person is anything other than a thuggish, arrogant bully.

See what I did there? Ostriches.

Remember he will be working, we understand, with Rigg and Curbishley so maybe the three together will form a balanced outlook where the sum is better than any of the individual parts.

Trying to look on the bright side.
