If somebody resigns, are they free to take up another position immediately, and if so, will we have to take out an injunction to stop them Probably depends on what his contract says and if there is a financial release clause in it and whether that is met. Too many questions really to be able to say. Edited July 15, 2019 by Bluesteel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurujuan Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 1 minute ago, WC1Owl said: He's in breach of contract. Wednesday are entitled to his exclusive services as a football manager for the duration of the contract. The thing that muddies the waters is that English law has a presumption against restraint of trade, so our ability to stop him working for someone else is circumscribed. We have to keep paying him, for one. For another, if we replace him, we might lose our hold over him. Thank you, so we will probably have to accept a compromise with Newcastle, as Bruce has forced our hand now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musn't Grumble Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 And yet we are the bad boys when it comes to FFP, transfer embargoes, selling grounds, etc... I live in hope that one day we will actually come out of the other side and win one of these events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metallicowl Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Going to oversee relegation from the premier league for Newcastle . It will be Bruce s fault in Ashleys eyes but their fans like us are treated like fools. The next appointment for us is so important now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoop Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 I’m not usually petty, but I’m going to take great satisfaction from Newcastle and Bruce’s demise this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beauchief Owl Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 So having said it was up to the clubs to come to a compromise, he does this. Funny how one of the traits fans liked about Bruce was his honesty. Clearly he is a dishonorable blaggard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asteener1867 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 It's a bloody ridiculous situation driven by a bloody megalomaniac Geordie fans are disgusted by the actions of both Ashley and Bruce Wednesday fans are the same, Bruce name if not tarnished already is now lower than his dogs belly and 2 football clubs preparations for the coming season are in turmoil Simply because of one fat greedy chairman . A chairman whose sole intention it seems is to further alienate his own fan base. Has anyone else ever known the fans of both clubs involved in a managerial change being so utterly against it? As for Chansiri? What on earth is he expected to do? Simply take it? He's faultless in this no matter what your opinion of past actions 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OxonOwl Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 In other lines of work companies often have the power to stop people working for competitors for a certain amount of time after leaving. You could always employ a manager and call him a director of football or head coach or whatever but he just has to do pretty much the same job..
