Surely we can't be "punished" any further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark.flem Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I don't understand. If compensation hasn't been agreed, how can he be unveiled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess our only argument would be that we have a right to have a manager regardless the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely we wouldn't stock up on players until we know how the new guy wants to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I understand from Nixon and the statement, compensation has been agreed for Bruce and 4m has been paid over. Chansiri wanted more to compensate for Agnew and Clemence. But Newcastle refused to negotiate on that and thought sod it if you want more money, take up legal advice and see you in court. Might be wrong, but that's my take.

I could start a burger restaurant sellinging 'Big Macs' tomorrow, in theory. In practice, I'd get absolutely reamed in court shortly afterwards. Sprouts Direct shareholders likely to be grumbling before this is over, I'd imagine... Edited July 17, 2019 by Mr. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shouldnt be naming Newcastle United collectively in this - its disrespectful to their fans who are as much against this move as we are. Fair point.

Quist Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 As far as I am aware if there is a figure in contract (which I understand there is) Necastle will have to pay it. Think its compo for assistants it has stalled on but DC regards as a job lot and think that is fair. Due to legal situation that is why neither side said anything. If Wednesday looked for a replacement before announcement mad we could have been said to contribute to dismissal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prowl Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I wonder who we sue Ashley for appointing someone under conract to us or Bruce for breach of contract. As far as I know we can only sue the party to the contract which is Bruce but I don't know how the contract is worded or if special rules apply in football. If we sue Bruce it could cost him a lot.
