If and probably now most reliable companies will carry insurance to protect them in all of this, the insurance providers will often just do a settlement out of court to save expense of going to court! not saying this has anything to do with TW just answering the questions asked in the post!

McCarry One Nil Posted May 7, 2020 Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 Still waiting on yer evidence rather than your keyboard attacks on a member of the staff at SJFC. That's what I'm no liking. As mentioned before is it in the same evidence bag as The Rangers SPFL evidence? Yer going on and on and on , on various threads. What has Kirsten done? That's all we want you to tell us. And then we can make our minds up. But for you to constantly keep this going with...…..(it appears) nothing...….. I just don't get it. Tommy left because of KR.....come on ???????????? I know nothing and maybe he didn't see eye to eye with her but still...….leave his job....that's no the Tommy we know is it? What he said in his interview is good enough for me. And he's gone but never forgotten. We stick together as one. SJFC Bruno Strasser, mainstand, Saline Saint and 9 others 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not get that Bye Bye. If Tommy requested that his contract be terminated then an employer is under no obligation to give said employee a settlement. They may have agreed that he did not have to serve a notice period under his contract of employment and could leave immediately. If Saints wanted to they could have refused the request to terminate and held him to his contract and then got compensation if and when he is appointed Northern Ireland manager. Think the outcome shows the respect on both sided for each other that a parting of the ways was agreed and I suspect no settlement made or requested from either side.

We didn’t pay him off, he asked to leave. If anything, and I doubt this would have happened, surely Saints would be due some sort of recourse.

Her perception of “calibre” should be taken with a pinch of salt... she made the call on employing Angelo Alessio based on a broken English interview Edited May 8, 2020 by R.B.B:- Adz MySpazz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair Bowie claimed at his press release that he interviewed him and she was responsible for tiring him down to a contract which o believe included a clause that allowed Killie to dump him by a given date.

Melbourne Saint Posted May 9, 2020 Report Share Posted May 9, 2020 To be fair to KR, her role is never going to be popular with fans. SB sets the financial framework and she applies it. If a player's contract negotiation (new signing or re-sign) breaks down because player/agent is asking outwith the framework- she'll get the blame. As for her role in appointing a new manager, it'll be very much SB's call. I'm sure she'll be involved in the process (which Cleland says is very good), as she'll have to work daily with whomever gets the gig. SB would've given her a list of desired skills/ knowledge etc and she'll whittle it down to a shortlist. What I would like to see is a Saints tv interview with her, so we gain an insight to her role & responsibilities... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MySpazz Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 KR is in the club to get it running as a business, ready for for the FOR SALE sign to go up Question isn't what did she do to make Tommy leave. Question is: What didn't she do to keep him at McD? Answer.............not enough! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
