He had clearly lost the dressing room, and he looked out of his depth , lost the confidence of the fans and players , and boardroom
Is that the new official Derby motto - 'Always next year'? Spring has come early this year. The smart money is on the John McGovern and Robbie Savage dream team.
Chairman Mel Morris told the club's official website: 'We are grateful for the contribution Paul has made to the football club but the time is right to make a change. 'When Paul joined us last year we worked with him to develop a plan for the club which we asked him to embrace. 'It was clear in this plan, which was briefed to supporters, players, sponsors and all our stakeholders last summer that promotion this season was not the primary target. 'The priorities were building on the Derby way and style of football enjoyed in the past two seasons; adding depth and strength to our playing squad; and, developing and improving player and team performance. Sadly, on these measurements, we have not made enough progress and that is why we have decided to part company with Paul. 'I firmly believe that we have one of the very best first team squads in this league. Our players are highly talented professionals who are more than capable of winning games at this level and beyond. 'I want to record our thanks to Paul for his efforts in leading the team through the first 30 games of this season and in achieving a top six position at this point. We wish him every success in his future career.' Sack of ****e that is.
Nigel Pearson likes building his own squad not running with someone elses He has already said he is looking for a project and not any old job hence why he isnt in a job already
Nigel Pearson seems obvious choice or have Leicester shown what a good manager can do at the same club?
