So the apparent six figure sum we saved not buying Liam Noble and getting him on a free has been offset by being ordered to pay John Sheridan.
A shame as that is money that could have helped strengthen the squad in January.
The problem was the time difference between the "f-you, you effing C incident", and the actual sacking......I tried this with one of my wives, 23 years after she flucked the milkman...It didn't work that time either
So the LMA condones further the abuse of match officals !!! From the FA to the FL until there are changes we will never get a level playing field or a fair distribution of revenue. I'm a happy pie, but sad the way our game is being ruined. COYP
We always seemed to be on shaky ground given the time lapse between the actual offence and the sacking, and so it proved. The question is whether the £125,000 is what Sheridan could have expected to receive when he was sacked or if it's cost Notts a lot more subsequently.
Let's hope it doesn't impact our transfer dealings in January. Painful lesson to AH in always doing things by the book.
Hang on - I don't buy that at all.
The article claims 23 days. Any company would take this long to get the legal department involved and HR to get the paperwork in place etc etc etc. 23 days is a very short timeframe.
Also....Mark Sampson (Englands Women Manager) was sacked recently by the FA after an incident from 3 years ago.
It clearly cannot be a case of time scales here.
It seems that way. It looks like the likes of Steve Evans and his sidekick will be able to continue their barrage of fouls language towards match officials during the games.
Who looks after and sticks up for the match officials? Granted they receive stick from fans but when at work they should not be subjected to such foul language and treatment from managers or any footballer for that matter.
According to Hardy, all parties were under strict confidentiality rules. How did the daily mail find out? I'm sure Hardy's lawyers will be looking into this, for instance, if it wasn't Notts who leaked it, then one of the other parties did, could they be sued for breach of contract for same amount?
