I think that, in spite of what I may have said on here, Pearson is a great manager and a thoroughly lovely chap.

How do you know we didn't? Also, Villa fan or not (not that should be any criteria for hiring someone) maybe he didn't want to leave whatever paradise he lives for struggle at the arse end of the PL for an owner looking to sell and invest as little as possible.
