Nigel Pearson and Kevin Phillips.

This is the rumour in the papers if and when the takeover happens. I'm sure it just a rumour rather than based on any discussions. For me, when you appoint a new manager you look at both the short term boost that the likes of Warnock offers as well as the long term vision to take us up through the divisions. Pearson comes across as aggressive and arrogant but would offer both a short term boost and potentially someone who could take us through the divisions. Parkinson quite clearly offers neither. Add in Kevin Phillips and it would be a good appointment. Any thoughts?

Nothing in it really mate. Just says they 'will wait for the call'. Just filling columns in the paper.

It’s better than Parkinson so I certainly wouldn’t be upset - personally though I’d rather someone with a bit of a long term vision that can translate to a way of playing at all levels. At this juncture we have an opportunity to implement something like that. Pearson doesn’t strike me as that type to be honest
