Then how do you think that will play in a court? Let me tell you there are some really stupid people out there, like unbelievable stupid, but no-one, no one in history, has been stupid enough to go to court over not paying the amount it clearly says in a contract you have to pay. No one has, no one ever will, and no one is with this. I'm going to bed night Again how do you know that Ashley has paid what was in the contracts, or what DC wanted. You really don't, it is legit all guesswork on your part. Oh my god, do you actually need it in crayon? You don't know anything, at all. All you are doing is making assumptions and giving conjecture. I don't know what else I expect from someone who takes his financial advice from someone on twitter though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really don't, it is legit all guesswork on your part. You know as much as the rest of us, IE, nothing, apart from Bruce is a c*nt, and DC thinks Newcastle f*cked us. That is actually the be all and end all Safe to say that DC hasn't been paid what he wanted! In terms of what's gone on. Been said before, but quite possibly an issue of Bruce being approached illegally, and DC therefore asking for more than what the contract states to make up for the wrong-doing. DC might feel wronged and therefore deserving of further compensation, especially when taking into account how it has disrupted both our ongoing business dealings and season preparation. Yes, this is all made up, and quite possibly (or probably) a load of rubbish. Nowt wrong with taking a stab it, just as long as we don't claim it to be fact.

Morepork Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 (edited) This is going to hinge on documented evidence. The noises coming out of St James's park over the last couple of days alluded to verbal deals and handshakes. To be honest, even in the event that our conduct was found to be 100% aboveboard I'd hold out little hope of the Premier League doing anything substantial.

Perhaps that's what this premier league thing is all about. Have Newcastle done anything wrong if so what. Can we look to sue them for it. But I still believe the payment for the two Steve's to be ongoing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWEDFM Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I admire the fact DC doesn't take things laying down and fights for what he thinks is right but it's time we nip this in the bud and drop all this legal action. We don't want this hanging over us when the season kicks off. We got £4m for Bruce which is more than any of us would have expected especially after only being here for 5 months. Let's be honest he's a decent manager but nothing more than that. This needs to be dropped 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legendaryswan Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I said all along this saga they were on rolling contracts,it can be ended at anytime,by either side,you just pay the compo to the end of the first roll,which is about 4 months on Bruce and his aides so its peanuts for the 3 of em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have had to have been specifically written into the contract that it could be ended early by a particular party after doing x/y/z. If the contract didn’t stipulate that it could be ended early then it can’t be ended early without mutual agreement of both parties. I’m not a contract expert, but having dealt with contract work in multiple countries that’s how I understand the law to be in most places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashamanic Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Any precedent at all for this? Where a team from outside the Premier League reported one in the the Premier League? otherwise the “the Premier league sticks together” is just pretend.

All for the sake of a few hundred grand? Not worth it. Just move on ffs. This post reminds me of Francis Jeffers. Good pedigree from the poster but bottles it when the going gets tough. Why people are acting like progression and sticking it to ashley are mutually exclusive is beyond me.. unless I am missing something? Good on DC.

No. They still owe us money for Steve and Steve that's why we haven't wiped our hands of this and got on with finding a new manager. So you reckon DC has just been sat round discussing compensation for Steve and Steve with our lawyers, not bothering to try and find a new manager until it’s all sorted? Really? I suppose that could be the case if he was an utter moron but I don’t think he is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you not think he May just have taken legal advice before making this decision...or do you just like having a go at the chairman ... pathetic.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
