Maybe Pearson grabbed the #LCFC board by the neck & held on to their shirts for an uncomfortably long time until they changed their minds

Have Leicester sacked Pearson? It's hard to say. Would I have shaken his hand? Yes. Would he have grabbed my throat? I don't know.

Pearson must have some agent . Gets him a job hours after been sacked in a environment he's familiar with ????

Don't think 'sacked in the evening and then unsacked in the evening' is going to cut it as much of a chant #Pearson

Sky sports news say Nigel Pearson sacked, now he isn't. Maybe they shot an alternative ending and accidentally broadcast both scenarios
