But we paid Colchester £400k. If we hadn't agreed to that, Parky would have just had to wait. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/h/hull_city/5129748.stm
So he'll be forced to resign. He'll have agreed something with Leicester already; we wouldn't have made an approach otherwise. Odd decision from Leicester. I always liked him and was sad to see him leave, but the ambition of the club has changed. If he achieves promotion he'll get the boot. I expect he'll have agreed a hefty clause to that effect.
If all you are ever going to contribute to this board is negative nonsense to wind up other posters, you won't be posting much longer.
No he probably won't leave. If Nige said that he wanted to go then we would have accepted the approach. I think that's what Adam said when West Ham came in for him.
He hasn't. If that were true it would mean that Nigel Pearson is not the honourable, professional "straight down the line" man we all know he is. These Lesteristan fans are arrogant and deluded. Their Club is being run like a comedy act and the whole of the football world knows that apart from them. They are in for one almighty shock soon, and I for one will be looking to assist them in the grieving process.
I'd be very surprised if they hadn't after all this time. They'd want some sign of intent from Pearson before making a public approach. Pearson might just be using this to get a bigger pay packet, but he'll have given some green light. Purely speculation. I'm not basing this on anything.
I think the Leicester board have misunderstood the manager of the month award and think they have to keep changing them.
Grayson resigned from Blackpool and was in the dug out for Leeds the next day A process has started - I don't have a crystal ball so I don't know how it will end
Cool your boots, sunny jim. We're only too aware of what a joke we've become. We're, on the whole, not remotely arrogant. It wasn't that long ago that we were in league one. That said, we're an attractive proposition on paper. Just a poisoned chalice in reality.
The ball is now well and truly in Nigels court, he has 3 options now. 1. Tell Hull he wants to talk to us 2. Tell Hull he wants to stay 3. Resign from Hull We have let our interest known and Hull have let them him know they want to keep him I dont think we will hear anything more on this saga until tommorow as we have a game later and stuff rarely happens on a sunday
Out of work managers were ahead of him on the list and still rejected the chance. Unless there's a huge pot of personal cash on the table for him I can't see any reason Nige would head backwards with his career.
