Has he gone from the SMC as well though?

Yes he has.

Tantastic man's days number me thinks





Maybe get some internationals now

It's on the official City website news page

Actually that's now different to what I saw earlier!!

I can't see Pearson coming back as an employed Director, not unless he has assurances about being able to buy in as well.

Whats wrong with that? our club is riddled with them

Pearson has ability, integrity and ambition!

It's a strange one with regards to Pearson, I can understand why the City fans would love to have him back, but ultimately he failed to get City to the Premiership and his time at Derby has been forgettable. However he did a fine job as the head of the SMC a role I'd like to see him take over again.

It's seems pretty certain that Pearson will be back at the club.
It will be interesting to see how the next few days pan out.

Do you think he would be good for us aswel though ?

who ever they employ wont one of them be running the SMC if duffen goes aswel.

I'd like to think whoever it is just dosn't push us to one side.

He didn't really fail to get City into the Premiership, he facilitated a sale to people that could raise the finance. At Derby he has secured them off the field (which was a big task) and brought Cough in.

If the debts etc. at City are true then Pearson would be the ideal candidate to come in, especially given the number of foreign investors looking to still buy Premiership clubs. The biggest thing Pearson brings is humility, a trait sadly lacking in both Duffen and Brown, it might be he would be a more paletable partner for Middle Eastern/Asian investors.

One of those rare occassions where i totally agree with standee.

Thats what Notts County fans said.

Anything is possible in football these days.

Press conference from Brown at 12.00.

Hutchie not involved.

Why not?

It's probably just the normal press conference before the weekends game although humberside are broadcasting it live and the mail are relaying it on their site

Would have been a lot more informative if it had happened last week when there were proper journalists in town!

I tell you what instead of me telling you why not, you tell me why it will.

If City are taken over by middle eastern investors I'll come on here and give a grovelling apology, however I don't expect one will ever be needed.

John fieldhouse?





TBH i dont think the press conference will be anything other than talk on the burnley game alll other questions will be " no comment".

Do you ever have any evidence to back up your opinions when it comes to City?

I never said it would or will happen, only that Pearson coming back makes it expodentially more likely than Duffen still being here.

Lets think what foreign investors are looking for:

1. A club with a solid fan base, and the potential to grow - check
2. A club in an area undergoing regeneration, where the local authority have plans for redevelopment - check
3. A club where there is the potential for other investment to be made to secure revenue streams for the club in it's own right - check
4. A club that will not cost a vast amount of money - check

So, are you going to explain your opinion?
