Personally I think this is good news. I called him a Conference level manager a few months back and still think that really, their game plan and standard of play/tactics I thought were atrocious, then they somehow went on that amazing streak and stayed up comfortably o_O

Wouldn't surprise me if he's landed one on the Chairman or something. 110% Psycho.

Considering how well he did to keep Leicester up, he really must be even more of a cock than we thought to have got himself sacked.

He must've done something again, or at least had a major falling out in the last few days, for them to sack him. Straw that broke the camel's back I guess.

I wonder if they'll try for Allardyce, since they'll be looking for someone to help them stay in the league again next season.

Had to be the sacking of his son that was the straw that broke the camel's back.

BREAKING: Sky Sources: Leicester sacked Nigel Pearson by telephone with no prior warning. More on #SSNHQ

So:
being sacked then reinstated in February
being reminded of his conduct after choking James McArthur
bad publicity from his conduct at press conferences
discussions relating to his son's conduct recently

yet there was no prior warning. The writing was on the wall, he didn't change his ways and the incident with his son must have been the final strike.

TBF you can hardly blame him for not going full retard on the subject of his Son's behaviour. No matter what your son does you support him, or if you can't overtly support him you at least don't drag him further through the muck

I don't blame them for sacking the Neanderthal cretin. Imagine having to work with that knuckle dragger?

I always thought he was a nice guy and pretty decent, which is why I found the hate on here really weird.

Then I realised, I had confused Pearson with Nigel Adkins for years lol. They are complete opposite ends of the spectrum

If he had any morals himself he should have publicly rebuked his son full throttle:
And the owners had no choice but to dismiss:

I would never publicly rebuke my son no matter if he was a mass murderer.

In fact i would go so far as to say that anyone who would would be the one lacking in moral fiber tbh. Nothing is important as family, and the closest family you have are your children. End of IMO.

i would ask if you were joking about that even if he was a mass murderer bit, but then again parents of mass murderers don't come out unscathed either so i guess it would be best for you all to stick together.

anyway, have a son who racist towards thais when your boss is a thai. that won't end well because you raised him so he's somewhat a reflection of you.

Nice one let your family members get away with anything and you would defend them:
The previous post says it all then!
