Leicester City supporters' spokesman: 'Nigel Pearson should apologise for spat'

Leicester City supporters' spokesman Cliff Ginnetta believes that manager Nigel Pearson should apologise for his recent row with a fan.

A Leicester City supporters' spokesman has stated that Foxes manager Nigel Pearson should apologise for his row with a fan during the club's 3-1 defeat against Liverpool on Tuesday.

Cliff Ginnetta claimed that Pearson's "arrogance spills over sometimes", but added that the 51-year-old appears to have the backing of most fans, despite the club's bad run.

Ginnetta is quoted by BBC Sport as saying: "[Pearson] should put his hands up, admit he was out of order, apologise to the people and move on, that's all everyone wants.

"We don't want to make it a big thing or play it out like a pantomime, we just want to get on with winning games. I'm sure the majority do [still support him].

"People are worried and moaning, but that's football fans, you're never really happy. It's the nature of the beast. He is popular but this arrogance spills over sometimes."

Pearson led Leicester to promotion from the Championship last season but has taken only two points from a possible 27 since their 5-3 win against Manchester United in September.
