Just want to see opinions on the bloke to be honest and if you feel he has bought anything to the club . Used to love seeing Paul Simpson under Mcclaren, having passion about the team in after match interviews and barking the orders from the sideline.

No

Who knows what any coach does. We're not there day to day. We see a couple of hours of their working week. 

If he's no use to Pearson then I'm sure Pearson would get rid. 

He's a great guy just trying to get it right for us Rams fans. 

As a general rule, I don't comment on any of the staff under the manager.  I don't join in on the Kevin Phillips bashing that's going on now.  I didn't join in on the Garner/Crosby bashing that went on either.  We have no clue what these guys are supposed to be doing, let alone how well they are doing it.  The manager is in charge of managing these guys, he lives or dies by how well the coaching staff are coaching.

Irrelevant if you ask me, I'm looking at the revolving door recruitment department that has signed a load of overpaid tossers myself. Clubs in our league have built better squads for 1/3 of the price. How many recruitment teams we had in the last couple of years? 3? 4? It's a joke.

Yes there has been money wasted. Ince, Butterfield & Johnson were significantly overpriced. Weimann is the type of player you could probably find cheap in the lower leagues, busy and fast with little end product. Blackman was a signing that we didn't need to make. On the positive side, I hope that Camara will be good when he plays regularly. Anya looks a threat and Vydra should do well in the 4-4-2 set up.

Lets hope Pearson has a better handle on recruitment than the previous management.

Exactly how can you tell what CP has or hasn't 'bought to the club' on the basis of observing his actions in the dugout?

*sigh*

Pearson - leaves Leicester- they go top of the league

Powell - leaves  Huddersfield - they go top of the league

Did they build the side or hold them back?

Unfortunately ,he's still at Leicester.

Not sure why Powell has been singled out and no mention of Idiakez, the last time we had someone at the club that used a hairdryer was Savage, we all know how that turned out.

For me this is the root of our problems and not allowing our players to shine, when was the last time we saw one curl in from outside the box?

Now I have highlighted the issue I'm sure Pearson will mullet over and cut short his time here.

I love you really Inigo! ??

Someone needs to bang a few in.

Can't possibly know how well he's doing his job. Not really up to us to evaluate his job performance since it's hidden from us.

Hmm interesting one.

I would say neither, that they were just part of the process.

Since when has that stopped us? This whole forum is built on that, just need Simon Cowell, Sharon Osbourne and Louis Whatshisname to sign up now

As others have mentioned - I don't have a clue what his job here is, but seeing as the discussion is taking place; according to Huddersfield's chief exec at a fan's forum a couple of weeks into Wagner's reign he only took training twice a week there and still lived in London. 

No idea if it's like that here, could even be ******** probably worth sharing though. I'd link the forum it was shared on but you have to sign up to it to see it.

Impossible to tell imo, who knows if Pearson is asking for his advice or not- he might know the answers to our problems but is being ignored, or maybe he is as clueless as Pearson. Looking in from the outside we cannot tell

Can't really compare Powell and Simpson either. Like pasta and rice - same role (food group) but quite different in job. Simpson had to be on the touch line, as Mac was up in the stands for 60 mins, whereas Pearson doesn't leave it or stop barking orders. No need for Chrissy to join in. 

I heard Powell and Idiakez stand up from bench and shout an order or two last night. Pearsons job effects all our staff, they succeed as a team
