Bristol City have sacked Nigel Pearson, citing the change needed to achieve promotion. But any new manager will face the same challenges which have held them back so far.
“We all wanted Nigel to achieve our ambition to be promoted but, with our recent results, feel that now is the time to make a change to give the club the best possible chance of success.” Bristol City chairman Jon Lansdown's forthright comments announcing Nigel Pearson's sacking were a notable departure from the football-ese of empty platitudes and mutual agreements.
'Luton got promoted with a squad with far less talent than we have in our squad,' owner Steve Lansdown, Jon's father, said publicly in the summer, suggesting Pearson should be more content with his lot despite the significant net profit he has generated. In the same interview and seemingly contradicting that point, he suggested the likes of Scott's sale would help build a 'nest egg' to one day rival the resources of those relegated clubs.
