To be fair he had done well in the latter part of the season. Relegation next year certain.

Can't see why they sacked him unless it got something to with his son or they got a big name lined up....lol anyone seen Sven around Leicester services today?

Seems a bit strange surely his remit was to keep them up which he did.

Hate to say it but, their end of season finish was nothing short of remarkable. reminded me very much of our relegation scraps... surely, has to be worth another seasons contract ?

Nigel did some very bizarre interviews at the end of the last season. Can't help thinking these in some ways could shine a light on why the board thinks the relationship is, "..no longer viable..".

Leicester City’s owners, Vichai and Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha......

Glad they own the club and do not play! Imagine trying to say that at every game! Would bring in the £'s if he was a fans favourite though and everyone wanted it on their shirt!

Have people forgot the bullying of the reporter towards the end of last season, the strange apology in the next press conference when the reporter had no option other than to accept the apology.

Other strange interviews last season.

the club never reacted last season as they were on a roll, dealing with Pearson then would of probably meant relegation.

Add to that, his son "performance" on tour.

From afar, the pearson family (to me) are not the best role models, I maybe wrong, but from what I have seen, I would not want them at my club.

Yes very reminiscent of our scraps against the drop.
When ever I saw them they were always "In the game" and playing attractive good football, If a little wasteful In front of the sticks. Both of their games V Spurs come to mind where they scored plenty but lost by odd goal.

He was under massive pressure.
Has proven himself to be a very good manager/ coach IMO
Obviously a very Intelligent, articulate man. Whether he felt that meant he felt others perceived him as weak or soft who knows but It seemed he was trying to show a more macho side of himself IE no pushover.
Which of course he Isn't, even In his playing days he could mix It as well as play. Harsh treatment IMO and should find work easily.

To be fair, I couldn't give two flying shits that he's been sacked nothing to do with us.

They must of finally got to grips that lightening won't strike twice and they need a better manager to stand a chance of staying up.

Bit of a shock to be fair, he did well for them and was building a decent team. Having said that everyone was appalled by Atkins getting sacked a few years ago and look what happened there....

Has this got 'big sam' written all over it as a replacement???

Yeah Sky I think saying It's directly related to Thailand.
However Is It solely the remit/ responsibility
of the manager to police players freetime-, I assume it was freetime and not official PR?
It could be complicated by the fact one was his son yet I feel the whole club including the board are as accountable
Realistically no one else Is responsible It Is solely down to those three idiots.
