Manager Claudio Ranieri has been sacked by Leicester City, nine months after leading them to the Premier League title.

The Foxes are one point above the relegation zone with 13 matches left.

Ranieri, 65, guided the East Midlands club to the title last season despite them being rated 5,000-1 shots at the start of the campaign.

Earlier this month, Leicester gave their "unwavering support" to the Italian.

This is NEARLY as SCANDALOUS as when the POTLESS pillock Dick Tight SACKED Steve GRIT months after saving the ALBION

Can see him opening up an antiques shop on the Kings Road, called 'Ranieri's Antics'

Hope Hughton isn't TEMPTED

Why would anyone be? Unless they value money above respect, and that ain't CH.

Wanted them to stay up for Ranieri but now hope they go down.

This sadly tells you all you need to know about modern football at the elite level..

That's it, Leicester have basically given up this season, a terrible shame considering their subliminal performance last season.

Bloody right. Unbelievable

5 names on the LIST to replace him

Alan Pardew
Mark Warburton
Avram Grant
Gary Rowett
Nigel Pearson

None of them fit to SHINE Ranieri's shoes

Modern football club owners (TB is excluded from this)do not care about the club, it's reputation, or gaining success. They only want the millions from the TV companies and sponsors, sadly Arsenal also go some way to prove this.

They offered the job to Guus Hiddink before Ranieri. What price for him getting it?

 

[1892]

Sounds embarrassing considering it's unrelated to my club but I feel quite sad about this. What the man helped them achieve last year was nothing short of a fairytale and now they have pissed on him. What he done last year gave fan's of clubs who have done nothing of note for decades hope.

I imagine this one will play out similar to Hughton getting sacked at Norwich.

You'd be crazy to think CH would even entertain the thought of replacing somebody who has been treated similarly.

Hope they get relegated. Absolutely terrible decision (in my opinion), and is a depressing indictment of modern football

Not in the Leicester Mercury yet. Just as slow as the Argus.
