Anlaby Owl Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Wow. This sort of enforces something I was told last night by a neighbour who still has some contact with Bruce (from his Hull city days) I didn't believe it at the time but now it seems there might be some truth. I was told that Ashley suggested Steve resign and that he would then pay the compo. It didn't happen. Nowt was paid and apparently the Steve's (all three of them) are absolutely furious because it leaves them in a legal poo hole. I was also told that the footballing authorities are looking into Ashley from a 'fit & propper' perspective (whatever that means). This was all 2nd hand info and I have no knowledge myself about what the hell is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. You are correct sir. And this is is why SWFC needed to make a statement and you were quite right saying so. Do not not be surprised if the third Steve on gardening leave for what was the duration of his SWFC contract. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladeshater Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Just a thought I wonder if the problem is agnew and clemence compensation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alleycat Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Reading the statement it looks like we did accept the resignations as it says "former" staff. Problem will be around the compo for the other two Steves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I would be very surprised if we appoint a manager until this is sorted. Probably would not be seen in our favour if we bring in a new manager. An absolute mess of a situation. No doubt Bullen will be given the job until it’s all sorted :-( 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dronfield Blue Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Bruce is finished now as a manager. I think this is his last pay day, what other club would touch him with a barge pole? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we can as it will just be a new contract.You can have five managers if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest domSWFC Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Now they've officially appointed Bruce, if we have yet to agree a composition fee, surely that would be a breach of contract and the full contractual amount is owed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beholder Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Well it's a statement at least. Sounds now like the money is gonna come as a result of legal proceedings, rather than bank transfer. Whether that means more money, who knows. It probably means it would be coming any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
