He didnt
He spoke to Radford personally after the game and they both agreed it was the right time to go.
The Sky interview came after

So Pearson has not sacked Radford on tv and it was discussed and agreed between them both straight after the game.

Unfortunately Lee has not been able to take us any further, sad that he has left like this but we simply could not carry on without a change.

Will forever be remembered for the the CC wins at Wembley but we just have not moved on.

Thanks for all your efforts Lee, now hopefully onwards on upwards.

Apparently Radford lost the dressing room

In reality a change was required and as you can’t change the whole team only one person in reality

At one point, the camera looked at radders and he was nodding his head, at that point I knew it was over.

Thanks for the memories radders, but right decision

I’m shocked.
Pearson sacks LR and then embarrassed him by telling the World before LR even had chance to tell his players.
Pearson is a zero I’m my opinion of him.

The correct decision albeit overdue.

Thanks for the memories of 2016 and 2017, Lee but we have to move on.

And you know this how, we’re you present in the discussions?
The right decision was made. Rumours of overseas players not happy with coaching system and long term English players rebellion.

According to Pearson Radford lost the dressing room so your comments may be correct

Which players go? Can see Radders’ best man following as he’s OOC and poop.

I told a couple of people that 2 weeks ago Ma'u and Satae had gone to Pearson asking to leave

To me, Radford’s problem was he followed the Bradford model from when he was a player. Big players all over the pitch but when that stopped working, he, like Bradford has no plan B.

I always had a feeling about Ma’u and his thoughts on our training techniques. How true is it that both players named did actually go to ask for a release?

I’ve heard Radford nutted Albert Kelly after the game
