my fear is Pearson is on a similar downward trajectory as Lambert.

Does Pearson generally bring stability?

Never really stayed at any club for a long period, with the exception of Leicester.

I think he's generally a short term impact appointment.

Yeah, the problem is Evans has heard of him which gives him an advantage! He'd also be taking a huge pay-cut to come here when a Championship club will likely give him a job.

Copied elsewhere, not sure your stability comment holds much weight.

"I'd be delighted with Pearson. Listened to an old Peter Crouch podcast episode where Kasper Schmeichel couldn't speak highly enough of him. Admittedly a long-shot but he sounds like the perfect fit:

"I've always said that we owe Nigel a great deal because even today, so much of the infrastructure of the club is what Nigel put in place and the staff, basically everyone from Nigel's staff is still there,"

"He was so good at looking at the big picture, he was so good at planning and implementing ways of getting the structure of the club in the right place and without doubt he deserves so much credit."

I think ultimately we just need a proper football manager. ME needs to stop being too smart about it all, being blinded by Champions League medals and vacuous b0llocks coming out of the likes of Lambert and just take a step back. We don't need to unearth the next Guardiola or be too radical with it, we just need a proper football manager who can man manage and get the best out of the players he's got. Someone with a few grey hairs on their head who can do a good job here for 3 years, lay the foundations and kick start this club. He would command respect and authority from day 1, build out his coaching team, set a disciplined team up effectively, identify a good footballer and have the emotional intelligence to man manage people. Tow that line between respect, a smattering of fear, likeable and want to play for them. What any decent manager should do.

I would 100% take Pearson, he did really well in his most recent role, taking a basket case Watford from 7 points adrift to 3 points above the drop zone. He strikes me as a little bit old school, but I think we need that. Ex defender, decent playing career but not exceptional, a bit no nonsense but not a dinosaur, doesn't take sh1t and a good demonstrable CV. He would toughen up the squad we have IMO. Not the most sexy appointment but I do think he ticks the boxes. He's essentially as close to another MM appointment as we could get.

Reading your first paragraph I though 'That's Mick McCarthy, that is'. Pearson would be a good appointment in a similar vein and might even generate a team that is more attack minded and better to watch but my worry is that there is an easily influenced section of our fanbase that would find an issue to make a noise about (and there always are issues in a complex job) so that the end for Pearson went something like the last days of McCarthy. Still, he would keep us up this year and might set us up for double promotions if Evans could find the money for the right signings - and Pearson would probably be one of the candidates who could do that at least cost.
