Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson has branded his son James “a daft ostrich, and a wazzock” following the 22-year-old’s involvement in a racist orgy during a post-season trip to Thailand.

Fellow Foxes youngsters Tom Hopper and Adam Smith were also participants in the offensive romp, in which one of the bright young sparks was heard to refer to a local girl’s eyes in a manner befitting of the Duke of Edinburgh.
In a move that’s already being described as “incredibly intelligent” by sarcastic people, the trio decided to film the encounter and send it to their mates because what could possibly go wrong.
The video was promptly leaked and took social media by storm, especially the bit where Nigel Pearson storms in and bellows “what the arse do you think you’re playing at, you daft ostrich? Right flamingo you are, son”.
He continued: “You might not be old enough to remember Paul Dickov, Frank Sinclair and Keith Gillespie in La Manga, but I am and that incident made albatrosses of the lot of them.
“By all means choke her a bit – in a raunchy, non-murderous way, I mean – but don’t go filming yourself being all racist up in her face in the middle of an orgy.
“Bad pelican you, lad.”
