Does that mean they're now free agents? Doesn't seem much of a penalty when they can probably just walk into equally well paid jobs.

Leicester City have sacked three players, including manager Nigel Pearson's son James, after they appeared to take part in a racist sex tape, filmed on the club's end-of-season tour of Thailand.

Could Ulloa be one of the other two?

All three were members of the development squad; the other two are Tom Hopper and Adam Smith.

It's not Leicester's place to 'penalise' them - only to terminate their employment due to their behaviour.

More serious 'penalties' would be due, only if they've broken any laws? Not that it would be the football clubs place to impose them.

I guess the FA could potentially bring further charges / bans for bringing the game into disrepute.

Bit of a downer on an otherwise excellent end to Leicester's season. One of the little prats involved being the manager's son makes it all the more embarrassing.

They can abuse Thai prostitutes at their own leisure now.

There may have been some club fines, but no, I never meant that it was Leicester City's job to penalise them. But though they've been given the sack. effectively all it means is that they've got a free transfer - which means that unlike most people who get sacked for misconduct, they're likely to just walk into another well paid job somewhere else.

All were on loan at league 2 clubs (apart from Pearson who was at Wrexham in conference) last season and only made a handful of appearances each. Given the bad press and the amount of players being released, they may well struggle to find another club.

You gotta larf though, for the fact that this profile of them will stick with them for the rest of their lives.

How this video even got into the media is more stupid than the actual act itself.

Would they have been sacked had they been important first team players ?

But thats the point, professional club being prompt, decisive and morale, on kids that have no worth.
