About whether the press are talking about Chelsea's performance or Pearson losing his rag. I didn't mean my post to be an attack on you buy the way. I just don't think much of the press and so I don't care which they wrote about.

Nigel Pearson at it again.

It always amazes me that journalists are defended & defended, while people are happy to slam football managers, politicians etc. Journalists in the red top press, and generally when it comes to the soap opera of the Premier League, are a sleazy, slimy bunch of deceitful liars. I have no sympathy for any journalists who spend their lives trying to create stories & putting people under unnecessary pressure. Pearson has been under all sorts of pressure, and the media have been more than happy to fuel it. I don't blame him one iota for snapping now & again.
I don't particularly like Pearson by the way. I just prefer most managers to the press. Maybe Pardew is the exception.

I just did actually! Yeh even in that he comes across very arrogant and narrow minded doesn't he.. Pressure seems to have got to him. Interesting he didn't deny telling that fan to **** off and die when given the chance and he pretty much admitted that quote was correct in doing so - and confirmed he didn't apologies to the fan too. Shocking.

Its disappointing that he cant show a touch of humility ...Murphy makes it clear that he rates the work that Pearson has done with Leicester.
That anger management bit did make me laugh

Nigel Pearson is heading for a fall, which in my view is nothing less than he deserves. A rude, brash and utterly reptillious bully. God knows what he must be like to live with.

Makes for a more entertaining press conference doesn't it. The sterile media trained answers we get from some many in football leads to a dull and sterile environment. Thanks **** for a few characters who make at least the odd conference enjoyable.
I am sure the reporter would see the funny side and has a thick enough skin to take this rather ludicrous line of comment.

Silly old bat
He's apologised to the reporter and they're all friends again. The clip was shown on Breakfast tv.

strong and stable with me, or...
He really is an odd character though. I don't mind him at all, but its strange behaviour, almost a bit scary to be honest, like he might be waiting round the back of the carpark for you...

I'm just quoting this in the hope of bringing that link to the attention of others. What a wonderful exchange!
