    Not as poor as your attempt of banter above.

    Been eavesdropping on Radio Leicester after listening to the marvelous last 10 mins of the game. One caller who had watched the game on sky said that while Meewaw were celebrating the goal, the camera cut to Pearson who mouthed "we're finished" to Shakespeare on the bench.

    I was wondering whether this could be confirmed or denied by anyone on this board, or even has a recording of the game (and some lipreading experience) to check?

    Personally, I think if you drop out of the playoffs then Pearson should rightly be worried - but with Brighton away to Forest tomorrow, the possibility exists that your friendly neighbours might well do you a favour.

    Anyhow, If Pearson does get sacked, all interest in LCFC will pretty-much immediately drain from the Hull board, which will be a shame as I think most in East Yorkshire are enjoying the banter at the moment.

    Anyhow - if anyone with sky+ could check the veracity of the above callers claim then it would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Its just form. All teams go through good form and bad form

    you cant just sack a manager for poor form, particularly after a game where you are down to 10 and play like that

    This is football, most managerial sackings make little sense nowadays.

    I watched the NP/Shakespeare thing

    My brother things he did say "were finished" but cant be 100% sure

    Me i cant make that out.

    The footage is inconclusive

    The whole system just pisses me off. Im more of a rugby fan anyway, but im starting to fall out of love with football a little bit. In the championship, about 18 of the 24 teams all think they have a play-off/promotion chance and so theres loads of sackings when shock horror their team doesnt make it. Yes it has to happen every now and then but if everyone just picked a manager they knew was good, and stuck with them there would be less pressure during bad forms as there would be less spotlight on the manager. Look at birmingham - awful start and now starting to kick on - all because they stuck with a manager who they knew was of a high standard even when it was going wrong.

    Just had a look. I am not great at lipreading I can tell he didn't say "we're finished" though. I kept playing it back and still can't get what he's saying. Maybe it's his facial expression with his pouted lips while he's saying it. To be honest I bet it's bad for you lot at the minute and I have nothing against Leicester, and I genuinely think you've got enough to keep hold of a play off place.

    Do you not think desperation from owners sometimes plays a part in managerial sackings?

    Q1: How much money have they spent over how long trying to get you promoted ?

    Q2: How sustainable are your finances if next season you are in the Championship with the fair-play rules kicking in?

    These pressures also have to be taken into account, and it is not like you have just had a blip in form is it? You've kinda totally bottled it from being second. They may think rolling the dice might be worth the gamble even if it brings a spike in form only lasting 5 or 6 games.

    Of course it may go the other way which is another consideration but your form is pretty poor at the moment.

    I believe the quote the caller used was "that's it, we're finished" could you check again?

    Sorry I can't be more precise but I was too busy laughing at the time.

    You could be right.... It's just so hard to understand what he's saying its almost as if he tried to squeeze it before the cameras was on him.
