Lord_Ram Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Just a word on powelI as assistant the real reason Powell is a masterstroke signing is he's a pretty good manager in his own right, got charlton up from league one with over 100 points (if I remember correctly) and did pretty well at Huddersfield so we've got a pretty good actual manager as assistant to Pearson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a typical McClaren game, won 3-2, attacked well, defended abysmally. And yet we had the third best defensive record in the league at that time!

G STAR RAM Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 3 hours ago, Zurich Ram said: What a great start to the weekend! Thanks Mel, all of a sudden, August just got nearer. One word of caution though, during that last Championship 100 point season, during which Leicester tore us a new @rse on a Friday night, I remember Foxes fans calling for Pearson to be sacked (and the local press intimating it was going to happen) in the previous September - so patience is going to be needed to give him time to deliver us to the promised land. Remember, no matter how good we think our squad is, it's not his squad - give him time and in Nige we trust. COYR!! Nor was it Darren Wassalls squad and he lasted about 80 minutes before the knives were out. The general consensus seemed to be that DW needed to be removed for an experienced manager who would virtually guarantee us promotion allegedly. Well the majority have what they wanted and I hope now that the goalposts don't start moving. I hope this time next year a lot of people on here are saying 'I told you so'!

But as times gone by Pearson has grown on me , his dynamic style mixed with his attacking play will be woblndeful plus his leadership is incredible. The main thing I'm happy about though is Chris powell as number 2 absoloute stroke of genius ! Chrissy powell is a Ram......... he hates forest!! Chris Powell is Charlton through and through,when we played them and he commentated on sky he certainly nailed his colours to the Charlton mast.

cosmic Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Hang on, @B4ev6is. You want him to keep Scott Carson but also keep Lee Grant as long as he gets first-team football?

I think what B4 is suggesting is a new tactic whereby we play two goalies at the same time to help improve our defensive frailties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
