Is it an indication of the record breaking run that we are on that no-one has posted the usual doom and gloom article around Sir Nigel being nominated for this award.
My only suggestion to avoid the possible curse is for us to do a Leeds and sack Sir Nigel tonight and re-appoint him after the award has gone to someone else in the morning!

Pearson has somehow managed to get us 10 points clear at the top without winning the award!
Let's hope he can keep the run going...

To be honest I don't think NP will care either way if he wins it or not!
If he does he will dedicate it to being a team award and go on to state it wont mean a thing if we fail to get promoted.

Let's face it, if NP doesn't win it the there's something wrong with the system which is invariably 'results based'. There could be some competition from 'arry and Billy though, but they lag a little behind.

Trish - this is pretty much what you said!!! You know Pearson so well!!
'I'm really pleased to have won the award, but I recognise individual accolades such as this as a group achieevment, as you can only be a success in a team sport through collective endeavour.'
Pearson goes on to say that both the players and the backroom staff deserve credit for this award being handed to him, but now it's an award for our achievement last month, and we have to focus on what is available to us this month and keep our current run going so we continue to maintain our league placing which was the primary objective this season.
