Nigel Pearson considering legal action

Nigel Pearson is considering legal action against us for unfair dismissal, if the rumours that he was sacked because of his sons action then I think he will win. More then likely it won't reach that far because the owners will pay him off

Hopefully he will have a decent lawyer who will settle rather then take it further as airing your dirty laundry will backfire on everyone.

Owners defense will basically be this http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/artic...st-moments-after-hes-sacked-by-leicester-city

 

... some of his more bizarre antics may come back to haunt him ... Will hinge on our internal 'code of conduct' and whether he has been in breach ...

 

All that would depend if the club disciplined Nigel for it at the time. You cant ignore it and one day so you know what we have had enough

 

...with all due respect
.. why can't you?

 

If hes being an arse about his son being sacked, i cant see him getting very far with legal action.

I dont think its coincidence that they all came back to work before he was fired, probably would have been the first time they would have had a staff meeting since his son had been fired, no doubt that meeting didnt go well.

 

You can - basically you can have a "accumulation of infractions" or something like that.

Basically the straw that broke the camel's back.

 

Happened to a mate of mine - made a big mistake that cost the company but nothing major was made of it until he did something ridiculously minor a few months later and was fired.

 

... as an employee the onus is on you to both learn and comply with codes of conduct etc ... the law isn't always 'fair' ... a point I was trying to make above ... it will come down to facts i.e did he break rules he either was aware of or should have been aware of ...if he did then he really won't have a challenge unless the code of conduct (rules themselves) could be exposed as 'unlawful' (in employment law terms) in the first place ...

 

We will never get to the truth to what made the owners to sack NP. I would imagine the owners will pay up his contract, Pearson will walk in to any Championship hot seat and we will move on.

 

considering legal action.. he dont have a leg to stand on and he knows it.....Its an idle threat as he would not say considering he would say see you in court...the guy is an idiot.....

 

The Mirror seems to think it's due to his son...

But this is The Mirror

I reckon he could end up at QPR. Just a feeling.

 

... nah they wouldn't want him ... they are far too big a club for anybody with any Leicester connection

 

First decent job avalible will be his if he wants it

 

... I could see him turning up at Midddlesbro, Sheff Wed or Leeds depending on results...

 

Who's Hopkins?!!!!!

 

My point exactly, such poor journalism... Does nobody proof-read these things?

 

I think he's proven he could do a job in the Premier League.

 

They also called the women "hookers". As that ever been established? If not, that's almost as degrading as the original incident!
