but an effective manager doesn't have to be likeable; they have to be effective. Leicester's trajectory over 2015 as a whole ( i.e. the back end of last season and the start of this one) is an upward curve, thanks in no small part to Nigel. Is he a cnut? yes. Is he an effective cnut ? Most certainly.
please don't think I am an advocate of Pearson or would want him anywhere near the club - I don't. Semi tangentially I just find it very irksome that Leicester's record over the last 10 months under a meat and two veg manager and a slightly more exotic one who either operated or operate with no greater resources than ours, is infinitely superior.
