    Well gutted about this, hope the owners realize what they have done!
    FFS just don't get Honest Harry in!

    Think a high profile managers the only way we will hold onto Cambiasso now, annoying thing now is that our next signing will be a manager god knows when.

    Would you rather I gave them a stand ovation?

    In view of what they have done for the club since they took over - Yes.

    Sorry - unless we have an amazing appointment imminent, I can't see how they have acted in the best interests of the club in this decision.

    I would ask you to give them some respect for one simple reason - they are not Mike Ashley, in fact they are the anti-Ashley.

    We are Leicester fans first and foremost - if they did this last season no one would have batted an eyelid given how NP was behaving but they stuck to their guns and we are in the position we are now having signed two internationals in the Premier League.

    For whatever reason NP is gone - and the sad fact is that there are dozens of reasons why - and since they have sunk more money into the club I bet all of us on this forum would ever earn, I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

    I have stated that I would give NP a handshake and buy him a pint and I would if I ever see him, but I would buy the owners two (if I knew what they actually looked like that is...).

    Genuinely surprised and also sorry it ended like this.

    He polarised opinion amongst our supporters but I liked him. Even his terse interviews. Journalists, especially sports one are a huge bunch of ****s.

    He really wanted to go back to you and achieve exactly what he did. It's just a shame it ended like this whatever the reason.

    Good luck on the next appointment fellas.

    If Pearson would have stayed after this breakdown, would he have had the best intentions for the club in his interests? or would he just be waiting to get sacked?

    Weve seen stuborn Pearson and it isnt pretty, yet we have defended it because of what hes achieved, but if a working relationship has broken down then they are doing the right thing to act fast.

    Time will tell. None of us knows what go's on behind closed doors. Like any business the staff have to buy into the owners plans. We'll have to agree to disagree over Pearson.

    Just about to say the same thing. The owner's next move will be critical.

    Agreed. A tactically astute coach/manager is needed - Cambiasso? I actually think he was more instrumental than Pearson in the last 10 games.

    Does Cambiasso even have his coaching badges?

    Thanks for the memories and all the best for the future Np.

    Owners, Managers & Players all come and go, the one consistent thing is the fans, I'll still be there supporting the team home and away whichever league we are in!

    Well Leicester have always had their fingers on the self destruct button ready to push it and today the finally have.

    It was all too good to be true.

    I think you'll find NP was hammering his manly, hard man( who can look after himself) fist on that particular button for some time.

    If my son had behaved like his I'd have binned the daft twat off myself.

    Speaks volumes of the 'man' to try and defend the indefensible because it's his son, if that's what has happened.

    Was he banging his fist on that button after the promotion, the play off campaign, the second play off campaign, the next promotion and then the mid table premier league finish?

    Leave your pathetic bitterness for him out of it for once you utter buffoon.
