Waives everyone else's compensation. Blocks Daniel Stendel from doing anything without payment. Bitter as ****
What a gent, offering to waive compensation so two men can secure employment and provide for their families. Give the man a 21 carat medal
I'm good with Paul Conway's assessment of what's happening. Shame it didn't work out with Daniel. The story of the bust up will filter out in good time. Time to get behind The Club.
Conway has given more information regarding Stendel's sacking to the Hearts fans, via the Scottish Daily Mail, than he's bothered to give Barnsley supporters to date.
"We have been involved in this kind of situation at Barnsley four times." Anyone fancy trying to make that one add up?
My guess would be: Hecky to Leeds Backroom staff going to Leeds with Hecky. Stendel's appointment (he was on garden leave in his previous role at the time). 'Separation from' Stendel
Actually, Struber's appointment would presumably be one of them, which would require Hecky and his backroom staff being rolled into one.
I agree Mick. There's been plenty to knock the board for over the past few weeks, but this just seems a normal footballing business issue, which people are taking as another opportunity to have a dig at BFC. Why not have a dig at Hearts. Even when they waive compensation for the two assistants, which they do not have to do, they can't even win on that. Hopefully I'll see you in Sydney later this month.
What's your opinion on him being unable to keep his gob shut to the media but refusing to acknowledge Barnsley fans?
I don't think things have been handled well at all on the communication front. That said, I believe there is a lot that we don't know, and may never know. I just don't want to go on forever being pissed off. Life's too short. We won on Saturday and I want to keep that happy glow.
Hmmmmmm. It is easy to be knee jerk on this. Here is my take and I claim no higher ground than an accumulation of press reports. Stendel was relieved of his duties at BFC. There is a rumour he sucumbed to a better offer elsewhere. To even engage with this offer broke his contract. Hard to say if he was sacked because of results or because of performance of contract. I find it perturbing that Mr Conway finds it more important to publicly engage with the issue of what now happens to Mr Stendel than he did with explaining to the fans why he had dispensed with the services of one of the club's best managers. Please just let's get 'em out, they are a locust on our house
Why are people saying he’s said more about this than he as what’s going off at barnsley. I doubt he’s picking up the phone and calling the papers. Maybe the Scottish mail have been pestering him for comment about the situation and that’s why he’s talking to them. The major news papers in Scotland are going to make a big deal out of it as hearts are a premier Scottish team. papers in England don’t give a **** about us so won’t be asking Conway what’s going off at Barnsley. We’re not a sheff team so RS won’t give a **** either. Maybe if they did they would get an interview with him and get him to talk
I mean, they are still getting paid by Barnsley so it’s not like he was keeping them from earning any money if he didn’t waive the compensation.
Wg Radio Sheffield HAVE pestered him for comment and he has refused. That is something they stated quite clearly on football heaven. Supporters have pestered him for comment and he has refused. If he can't comment for legal reasons to anyone in Barnsley then why can he suddenly comment to fans of hearts just because they pestered him? It's utter ******** and indefensible
With Conway saying both sides wouldn’t be surprised if Stendel is x2 (in and out), Struber and guy who went to Huddersfield.
Could be as simple as they are hoping the Partick thing is not dead and part of what they think is raising their profile in Scottish football.
