    of course it is. You are removing someone from their role.

    Whether it is dismissal with or without notice or via a settlement agreement, the end result is the same. Paying someone off is a commercial decision made to reduce financial and/or reputational risk to the organisation.

    Many football managers are referred to as 'sacked', when in fact, they have been paid the value of the remainder of their contract.

    Right. Saying they've been "sacked" just affords them a greater level of sympathy. It's not about money or losing their livelihood; they'll have plenty of the former and plenty of opportunity to continue with the latter, if they want to.

    agreed.

    The definition of 'sack' is to dismiss from employment. There are many, many ways to do this.
