Nigel Pearson Sacked?

[Johnny J]

Ridiculous decision. If you don't want him next season, fine, but sacking your manager with two games left is pathetic unless he's done something crazy like putting cellophane on all the toilets and videotaping the ensuing shitshow.

Big bust up in the last 48 hours apparently, my Watford itk not giving any more info as he’s actually embarrassed!
Bet Pearson put someone on their arse!

Why's he embarrassed? Is your ITK Pearson?!

Not that surprised. He looked like he could murder a few of his players during the Spammers match.

 

[spursfan77]

Fucking hell. What did he do? Take a shit on the chairman's desk or something?

He’s a bit of a nob. Wouldn’t surprise me!

 

[whitelanefever]

Not surprised.. He blamed players in post match interview.. Took no responsibility as manager

Not quite, really old mate who knows the club circles. Don’t know if he’s embarrassed about how the club are operating or whatever the incident is!

Watford sack Nigel Pearson with survival in their grasp

Watford have become the first Premier League club to sack three managers in the same season after taking the surprising decision to end Nigel Pearson’s tenure at Vicarage Road. Sources have told The Times that Pearson, 56, became embroiled in a row with Watford’s owner, Gino Pozzo, after the 3-1 d

He's supposed to have had a row with the chairman. It's funny, he doesn't strike me as the kind of person to get into rows with people.

Didn't he once grab a player by the throat who got slide tackled into him?

 

[philll]

Yeah back before he got sacked by Leicester. And then they won the league the next season...

If the players didn't like Pearson it would be one thing, but it sounded like players like Deeney really loved him, remember his "finally being treated like an adult" remark earlier this season.

Someone who claims to be Watford ITK wrote about a rift between Pearson and the DOF Giraldi, that they've never got along and it sounds like Giraldi was just waiting for an excuse. Shakespeare has also left.

Watford fans are screaming for the Pozzos to sack Giraldi and bring in a new DOF from what I'm reading.

We desperately need them to have something to play for against Arse so we need a favour from Villa, otherwise they'll surely down tools.

Having known what Pearson is like from his time in Derby 100% this

Hes decent at managing but he isn't someone who has the temperament to be questioned by players or superiors

Genuinely surprised at that for some reason

I’ve never known a team in england switch managers as often as they do.

It truly is quite bizarre.

...And Huddersfield have just done the exact same thing, although they look safer than Watford.

The Cowley's had a really big challenge on their hands as that Huddersfield team is pretty poor and they had to reverse the feeling of negativity. Pretty experienced at that level so all things considered I thought they'd done well. But a chairman with a different idea again.

i'm hoping cowley gets the job at my local team ( bristol city) think he'll do great there.

That is the problem with their model, if the manager can’t give someone a bollocking at half time without the DOF wanting access to the changing room then what’s the point in having a manager?
Actually feel sorry for Pearson as he’s done a pretty good job for them but if you go to Watford you know you could be out on your arse within a week.

The bloke is a knob but he is 12th in the table since he took over, from a team that was rock bottom and utter shite. His contract was only until the end of the season anyway so the timing is bizarre.

If he's lamped someone and has been dismissed for gross misconduct then fair enough. Results wise it makes no sense.
