BREAKING NEWS : STEVE BRUCE RESIGNS


Recommended Posts

Would it be cheaper for Bruce/Newcastle to buy him out of his contract rather than pay compo?

 

Either way, Bruce and Ashley will clearly have taken legal advice, and my concern is that those 2 will have sharper lawyers in this kind of world than DC.

What's the implication of this in regards to compo?

 

Doesn't change anything until and unless Chansiri agrees to terminate his contract. Chansiri's obvious move is to put him on gardening leave, take out an injunction to stop him joining Newcastle, and start the process of appointing a replacement. The only grey area is if appointing a replacement would amount to constructive dismissal.

So is training finished for today then?

 

It's a fair point. Can't believe training would've finished yet.

 

If Bruce took training today then when did he hand his resignation in? And why would he take training straight afterwards?

 

Doesn't really add up.

This.

 

At times like this we could really have done with Katrien Meire still at the club. Seriously.

Is that “ re-signs” or “resigns” ?

Surely it means that he has signed a contact extension to show his gratitude for the fans and club that he respects so much.

It can’t possibly mean that he’s walked out on the club and chairman that bent over backwards to accommodate him....only a self obsessed double crossing disrespectful deluded low life would do that... wouldn’t they ?

Can Chansiri refuse the resignation and put him on gardening leave till Ashley pays up?

Yes.

Basically he's on a 1 year rolling contract, so potentially if DC refuses to release him from it, he's basically in no mans land for 12 months. IMO
