James Piercy is purely using our well known manger (who is probably the biggest draw in the region at present) to Gain attention and attract respect from City fans who he now needs to enhance his career. It’s just how the world is right now sadly. Ironically those that call our manager an attention seeker will lap it up 👍🏾

I don't care about Pearson. I am not saying Piercy is right, but from what I have read Piercy has called Barton a pantomime villain (which isn't much of a stretch or diss) and wonders whether Barton is as good as he claims to be. Hardly scathing stuff. Piercy is a journo with an opinion. So what. He isn't there to kiss anyone's ass. Barton is about as bulletproof as any manager can be and he is a bit uppity because a local reporter doesn't fall at his feet. Hate to think how Barton will cope if/when he gets any real scrutiny Piercy has questioned City in the past. he has been doing the job a long time now and isn't some wet behind the ears youngster worried about keeping everyone sweet www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/nigel-pearson-bristol-city-6179327www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/bristol-city-verdict-obvious-void-8691316 |

Think The Equalizer is right, the journo needs some publicity to enhance his reputation with Bristol City so what does he do, well something he knows all of that persuasion will love, doubt he really knows JB ,just jumping on the popular band wagon, mind you i am surprised JB takes any notice of the comments made by an irrelevant journo.

Although writing critical articles is hardly the same as having needless digs when doing a pre-season preview article. |

Pierecy is a journo who writes what he sees and isnt worried kertowing to whomever he is reporting too. As for needless digs, not like our own manager doesnt make them about countless opposition teams/managers is it? Just a bit rich for Barton to get all upset over that. Piercey has hardly slandered him |

Piercy isn’t the Rovers editor, nor has he ever been.
The post never directly interview Gas managers either.
It’s all a bit of a non story.

Piercy's the Sports Editor which would make him in overall control of sports reporting at the BP, he's also brought in a new junior reporter from Hampshire, where he just happens to be Hampshire Live's Sports Editor, so I assume he'll now follow a similar line of reporting as I doubt he'll want to upset is new boss. |

I note that Private Eye has pinpointed half a dozen claims in the Sun's reporting on Huw Edwards which were totally inaccurate. I saw a YouTube video recently tracing the decline and demise of journalism since Murdoch bought the Sun. I rather like JB's decision. |

Not once in any of them does piercy make any derogatory comments towards Pearson, only critics the team and it's performance which is perfectly acceptable. He makes a direct personal dig about Barton's ability as a football manager with a rather childish remark. He hasn't and wouldn't dream of making that comment about Nigel. |

If our manager ever stops making snarky remarks about teams and/or managers (like the one he made after Saturday about cambridge for instance) i might find Barton's stance a bit more acceptable. If he doesnt want to speak to The Post. Fine. Just find it quite laughable what he has got hid knickers in a not over given the stuff that comes out of his own mouth |

For the record - the BP is owned by the Reach PLC group. Hence the BP reporting some domestic issue in Bolton, etc.. It's journalists are recruited and posted indiscriminately. They will have an eye on the next rung on the ladder, the next move up the greasy pole. Their reports will go mostly online where they need to be 'clickbait'. Fearless probity and forensic analysis is hardly needed therefore. |

So, You decry journalism but then go on to quote Private Eye and YouTube? Come on. But in principle I agree with you. And Barton is doing exactly the same in his own limited way. As manager he has a responsibility to the supporters to communicate honestly with them. He has stopped doing that unless we pay him. That's low life grifting which is unbecoming of a professional manager and relegates the Evening Post into the so what/who cares category, one that has been blown up out of all proportion by Barton himself. |

I mean, he’s a journalist at the Bristol post. I’m not sure many football fans from Bristol actually respect the quality of sports journalism there.
If trying to wind up people on Twitter is a big career move for him then good luck to the bloke.
