As I can't get to watch City from W London, I go to a little club called Hampton & Richmond for my live footy fix, in the Blue Square South. Before you laugh, you'd like it... honestly! But anyhow, recently I ran into an exiled White****e, who also goes there, and we started chatting after a bloody awful game there - I'm used to it, I always say...
Turns out he's one of the few of their fans that DOESN'T want promotion. As far as his opinion of City goes, he thought Pearson was one of the better managers in the championship and that the board would be stupid (actually he said f'kin stupid) to get rid of him.
I nearly fell over in shock. So if a WS thinks Pearson is a good manager, then we should believe he is!
