Perhaps the flag waver was trying to protect his fellow fans from having to watch the sh*te on the pitch...........
What grounds? Sometimes I despair for the state of mankind. Yes he insulted Scouse people, yes he's a corporate lawyer but, wtf, we live in such politically correct times that people get hounded for being a bit of an ass - in his own time. Someone else takes it upon themselves to out him (by saying who he is and what he does) and, bingo, the baying crowd have their blood.. PATHETIC.

Apparently he's got such an important job that he can't say anything in public that might offend otherwise it's okay to give him the bullet because he might have upset potential clients and can't be trusted around present clients, even though he's a partner of the firm and has industry awards for being the best in the business and great at his job as long as you keep him off the subject of football.
@catcherintherye can no doubt fill you in with details about how important people in today's society should behave and the consequences of falling short to his draconian and patronising rules on modern society.
It won't be a short post though..
I'm afraid writing in a concise manner is a great weakness of mine! I will try though.
.You keep trying to make this out as societal pressures. As I keep trying to point out, whatever societal standards are on this have little importance. How I think important people should act is also irrelevant. If I think he should call scouser scum, or shouldn't call scouser scum makes not one jot of difference.
By patronising rules of modern society, what you really mean are stifling rules within the executive edge of the business community. You don't seem to have comprehended yet that it was a private business that have moved him on.
If I owned a huge law company and one of my top execs behaved like that I'd probably move them on too. Maybe you would keep them? Neither of us in all likelihood will ever know because we don't run such a company. The idea though that he's been moved on due to societal pressures is just not the case.

Tl;Dr.
What baying crowd? And he outed himself by going onto a TV channel and acting like a knob. It made no difference what any alleged baying mob did, he put it on a public forum.
As for political correctness the legal firm haven't fired him for being un pc. They have fired him because he's shown himself to be a liability given the nature of the work he does. If I ran such a business I'd be worried how he'd respond to an opposing Lawyer, especially as our legal system is adverserial.
In essence he has let a few idiot supporters singing "sacked in the morning" drive him into an out of control rage. This raises major red flags.

You've got experience in this area haven't you? What's the chances of a lawyer meeting face to face with the other side? Isn't it all done through negotiations about points that are made from a legal perspective? If it went to a face to face meeting in some court surely a barrister would take over?

Yes. However within his role he is gong to have to deal with people who have opposing views to him. Getting as riled as he did at a few muppets singing "sacked in the morning" hardly demonstrates those skills.
In the end that is a judgement call for his employer. You or I may disagree with his employers judgement. However to make out this is to do with political correctness or an imaginary baying mob "outing" him is nonsense. He outed himself by going on camera acting like a knob.
In the position he is in that is career suicide as has been found for him. Legal firms expect their people to be a bit better than football banter goons. The real world is not The Football factory.
