Firings watch.

Roberto D’Aversa has been fired as manager of Lecce. Lecce is a team in the Italian Serie A soccer league.

This is not ordinarily something I would take notice of, but the reason for his firing is interesting:

D’Aversa, 48, head-butted Verona striker Thomas Henry in the aftermath of their 1-0 home defeat on Sunday.

Hellas Verona was the opposing team, and is in 13th place in Serie A. Lecce is in 15th place.
