Pearson has done a good job if they stay up, but Watford have form. What a strange few minutes with the Cowley decision too?!

Even if he did have a free hit, he has had a bloody good go at survival.

They've only sacked the three managers this season, quite restrained for them.

True. Perhaps Illinoisblue is part of the in crowd at Vicarage Road? 🤔

Plenty of journos on Twitter saying it. The proper ones well, not the click-whores.

Illy has form for breaking news of manager departures. Jan 2011 springs to mind.

There is a substantial amount of acceptable sources confirming it now.

A lot more to this story than initially meets the eye I feel.

17 permanent managers this milenium

The same number we've had as a professional club :ie since 1936)

That said they've also had 3 promotions to the Premier League since 2000. It's also fair to say that the managers position at Watford is seen differently than at most clubs.

Watford basically have a new manager every year, it's a strange policy but generally seems to work for them

You have to feel sorry for Pearson, he'd got them out of jail. I wonder where he'll end up next, he seems a fairly safe pair of hands?

Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!

What a strange decision, new manager has 2 games against Man City & Arsenal to avoid relegation and if they don't avoid it I guess that manager also get sacked.

Still doesn't say he has been sacked, just that he's set to be sacked.

Always check the BBC, and read stuff carefully. This is the way to a Zen approach to the news.

Seems mad, just wait one week and then its end of the season. No new manager will have time to do anything different so they should just go with what they have for last two games.

Not surprised in the slightest. Still a good chance they could go down. Terrible season for them.

Nothing has really come out about the reasoning behind his sacking, but some have been suggesting that Pearson was entitled to a monetary bonus if Watford stayed up as him and Craig Shakespeare were on a short term contract until the end of the season. Not sure how true that is though?
