The Prophet Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Spoke to a Forest fan recently who felt the purchase of Lascelles in particular was bizzare given he wasn't even being picked for Forest on a regular basis at the time. Doesn't fill me with confidence knowing Williamson, Taylor and himself could potentially be our senior centre backs next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having conquered much of the football world, Psycho fleetingly came to Newcastle United to play in the FA Cup final of 1998 and, surprisingly, for the first time in the Champions League. Such was his affinity with the Magpies that Stuart Pearce asked Kevin Keegan if he would take his Entertainers to Nottingham Forest for his testimonial match, and even though Ruud Gullit brought a shuddering end to his black-and-white career, he still to this day refers to Newcastle as “the biggest club I ever played for in my career.” That being so, Pearce is in a unique position to talk of the impending arrival of Karl Darlow and Jamaal Lascelles from Nottingham Forest. They were sold to United for £7m on Pearce’s watch early this season and loaned back to Forest. It was a double transfer which initially saw Pearce spectacularly fall out with his chairman over a deal done behind his back. Later the same chairman was to sack his manager. So what have United got for their money? “Well, they are both outstanding lads, without question,” Stuart told me. “Their character is first-class. However, I don’t think they are ready yet to go straight into the Premier League. “Both the club and the fans will have to give them time and encouragement. They are potential rather than the finished article. “Darlow more or less played in my first team regularly but Lascelles not quite so much. He will require a bit more time. “However, from their point of view the move is ideal. “They weren’t about to play for a Premier League club staying at Forest but now hopefully they are. “Though I fell out with the chairman over the deal I told both lads they were going to a fantastic football club with passionate fans. I knew that from first-hand experience.” What prompted the bickering twixt Forest’s two bosses? “Well, I had been asked my opinion and I said they should stay for the moment,” said Pearce. “However, the chairman sold them behind my back. It was his club and his money so he could do that. I just felt if we had kept them their value would have risen given time. “The sop was that Igot them back for the season, and in fairness the money we received from Newcastle was well invested in other players. “A few clubs had been watching both Darlow and Lascelles but no bid had been put on the table until Newcastle came along.” Inevitably, in the cut-throat world of football management, even a legend wasn’t safe from the sack and in February Pearce duly felt cold steel on his neck. “I certainly wasn’t given any time,” he shrugged. “We started off like an express train and were top of the league but there was always going to be a levelling-out. We were never below 12th but the chairman didn’t have any patience and that was that. “However, I don’t regret a thing. A lot of people wondered if I should go to Forest and risk my reputation from my playing days but that wasn’t a worry to me. “The supporters were great. They were willing me to do well and I honestly believe my standing with them is higher now than before I went back as manager.” Around the same time as I was swapping words with Pearce, I had talked to another influential footballing figure who has regularly seen Darlow and Lascelles play, and he, too, suggested that United’s fans will need patience before judging the Forest duo. Lascelles, he ventured, “could be anything.” He described him as “quick, good in the air with clever feet” but ventured that the youngster needs to “toughen up physically and mentally for the top league.” The move north, he felt, has come just in time to prevent them both from stagnating in the Championship instead of developing in a new and challenging environment. Pearce spent two years at Newcastle after Keegan quit his Entertainers when on the brink of Premier League success. Kenny Dalglish signed him and Gullit finished him. “Despite the ending I loved it – the fans were so passionate and made me so welcome,” insisted Stuart. “My first season was terrific. We made it to the Cup final and I played Champions League football for the first time. We won things at Forest, but because of Hysel we couldn’t play in Europe. “I remember scoring against Dynamo Kiev and enjoying some glorious nights. One of the best was when we beat Barcelona 3-2 at St James’ Park. “I wasn’t playing because I was injured, but what a one-man show Tino Asprilla put on. He scored a hat-trick and terrorised them. He was unplayable. “I twice saw the full extent of Tino’s repertoire – that match and a pre-season friendly against Juventus in Italy. We lost 3-2 but Asprilla was a magician. He scored both our goals.” If those were happy days then the arrival of Gullit, who alienated so many senior players, was to cast a huge dark cloud over Pearce. He was cold-shouldered out of the team along with the likes of Rob Lee, while club legend Alan Shearer was publicly snubbed. “I remember Gullit calling all the senior players in to see him individually when he first arrived,” said Pearce. “He told us all how important we were and how he would be relying on us, but from then on it was all downhill. “I didn’t have an ego. If he had only come to me and said he thought I should go, then fine. I didn’t want to just pick up my wages. At that stage in my career it was all about playing. “Eventually I left on a free transfer. Half a dozen clubs were in for me but I signed for Harry Redknapp at West Ham and within eight weeks I was back in the England squad. Kevin Keegan phoned me out of the blue. “I thought he was going to ask me about a young Rio Ferdinand but it was to ask if I would be open to playing international football again. “What? Of course I was. I was 37 yet England wanted me so perhaps Gullit was wrong in his assessment! “With hindsight perhaps if I had stuck it out at Newcastle as Lee and Shearer did I would have been all right because United appointed my old England boss Bobby Robson, but there we are. “As it happened I think the down side with Gullit served me well when I went into management.” Aye, taught him what not to do I suspect!
