All these abbreviations reminds me of a Peter Cook sketch. ‘ He got the VC in France…. Or at least I think that is what he said’.

I think I’d be surprised if Pearson left now for a number of reasons:

1) it’s right at the end of preseason: getting in someone else requires a certain level of adaptation right before the start of the season, even if it was Ben Davies. Different people in different roles would inevitably take time to bed in. It’s like letting a member of your teaching staff at a school leave a week before term starts. DA and Pearson will have planned for the season on the basis of the staff remaining intact

2) I wouldn’t have thought Town would want to create more disruption on the staff particularly after the passing of Alex Hughes. As DA alluded too, that’s not only had an emotional impact on the squad and staff but also a practical impact in that it has altered what DA has been doing over the summer. He’s likely to be unwilling to pick up other responsibilities while a new Assistant beds in

3) If Lincoln have joint managers, do they need an assistant? Could make for a crowded room in decision making

Just my thoughts but who knows.

Thought BD moved primarily because his wife is local and she works in Hull, so with a young family he wanted a role that wouldn’t see him fired if first team results were not good. Seemed a sensible choice to me.

Well given the one person that got every single thing spot on in regards to transfer on the forum seemed to lose all his information as BD was moved to a different role and stormed off the Fishy, could well be a coincidence but would be a rather funny one if so.


BD wasn't Alan Buckley's source but it was someone who no longer works for us but would have 100% known who our transfer targets were.

Didn't that meltdown and information dry up stop very close to the time that a reasonably high profile former employee moved to a rival club?

I'm not insinuating anything, correlation doesn't mean causation, after all, but it's the first time I have heard anyone speculate against BD.
