Sacked with no time for a replacement to sort out the issues? Hopefully they're doomed. Would be hilarious to see them down, derby up and us survive. Biggest team in the midlands my arse.

  Stuart Pearce sacked by Nottingham Forest after dismal run of results England and club legend axed after talks with chairman Fawaz Al-Hasawi following defeat against Millwall

 

Stuart Pearce has been sacked by Nottingham Forest after talks with chairman Fawaz Al-Hasawi on Sunday.

Pearce, Forest's legendary former captain, is leaving his post as manager following a dreadful run of results which have left the club just seven points above the Championship relegation zone.

The 52-year-old was summoned for talks with Al-Hasawi on Sunday afternoon, less than 24 hours after the home defeat to Millwall, and told his contract would be terminated.

Despite a victory over Derby County a fortnight ago, Forest have won only three games from the last 23 and Pearce's position has been under threat for weeks.

Al-Hasawi has been considering a change since the FA Cup defeat to Rochdale and is now looking for his sixth manager in two years.

Dan Petrescu, the former Chelsea defender, is emerging as an early contender to take over at the City Ground.

Dan Petrescu favourite :o ...

 

Here's a copy of a letter I sent to Susan Whelan in September this year:

Susan Whelan
Chief Executive Officer
Leicester City Football Club
Filbert Way
Leicester
LE2 7FL

Dear Susan

First of all I would like to say, welcome to Leicester City Football Club, I hope you have settled well into your new job. I am a big supporter of our Club and have supported them for sixteen years. I am writing to you regarding my opinions on the future of the First Team Management, I feel that it is better for supporters to bring their opinions and feelings to the Club's attention, rather than complaining to the media on phone ins, or moaning in forums. As you are most likely aware there has been speculation regarding the current First Team Manager's Sven Goran-Eriksson's position at the Club, there have been rumors in the press that his job is under threat, only you will know whether these rumors are correct or not.

The main purpose of why I am writing to you is to bring to your attention the person who I really think the Club should strongly consider bringing in to replace Sven Goran-Eriksson, should him and the Club part company in the near or distant future.

His name is Dan Petrescu and he is well known in this country from his highly successful playing career with Sheffield Wednesday, Chelsea, Bradford City, Southampton and The Romanian National Team. He is currently the First Team Manager of a Club called Kuban Krasnodar, who currently plays in the top tier of Russian Football; he joined the Club at the end of 2009, following their relegation to the Second Tier of Russian Football. In his first season at the Club (2010) he won them instant promotion back to the Top Tier, winning the Second Tier by a nine point margin, they are currently lying in 6th place in The Top Tier and looked destined to finish in their highest position ever and could even potentially qualify for Europe.

Before taking on the role at Kuban Krasnador, he was First Team Manager at a Club called Unirea Urziceni, who were based in his native Romania, the Club are no longer in existence after folding in July 2011. Dan joined the Club in 2006 following their promotion to Romania's Top Tier, and they made excellent continuous progress under his reign, qualifying for The Uefa Cup in 2007/2008 for the first time ever, then the following season (2008/2009) they won the Top Romanian League again for the first time ever, qualifying for the Champions League for the first time in their history.

The man is an absolute genius and if given the chance I believe he could bring wonders to our Club like he has in his current and previous job, I am of the opinion that if Sven-Goran Eriksson does leave us in the future there will be no better person to replace him than Dan Petrescu, he's got highly successful playing and coaching experience, he's fluent in English, knows the English game well, knows the European game well as well and he's still relatively young for a Manager at 43 years old.

I hope you take my views and opinions into strong consideration and if/when a vacancy for the First Team Manager arises, that you and the Raksriaksorn's strongly consider Dan for the role. 

 

:crylaugh:

I've nothing against derby, bit of an irrelevant club, besides 6 points guaranteed before we kick a ball is great.

I still say after the birth of my son, Seeing Psycho walk out the tunnel on his first game in charge and hearing the roar from the fans is one of the best times of my life....

That has to be Pearce done with football management. He couldn't even get it right with millions of pounds to spend adding to a decent squad and an adoring crowd. Nowhere else will put up with him.

 

Billy to come back again?

Not for about 20 years, that's for sure.
