After the terse 21 word statement which fans didn't like I thought chairmen/directors may try to redeem themselves with a note of thanks etc. for Stendel's contribution to the club in the Swansea programme. Unless 'Stendel' is one of the hidden words in Wordsearch on page 36 his name does not appear anywhere in this programme.
Hope he goes on a lunchtime bender in town, gets a ticket in Ponty and does a solo pitch invasion, windmilling directors box.
It seems possible with the lack of statements and the words chosen on his departures that the club could be claiming he left and hence don't need to pay him off. Could well be why theres a rumoured legal issue. With the alleged Miranda incident also seems like our lawyers are busy
That doesn't stop them putting out a more explanative statement. I also know explanative isn't a word but I like it so I'm using it.
It does if as he described board are claiming he left. If they put in public domain he left of his own doing, that can be used against them in any successful claim.
Under British law you can be sacked very easily if you've been employed for less than 2 years as he has. And presumably you then dont get paid until the end of your contract?

Think there's a difference between a permanent employee and someone employed on a fixed term contract.
Even so by the time they've added lawyer costs is it really worth all the aggro and bad taste? I just find it very confusing.
not really, unfair dismissal still applies if on fixed term contract red helen- yes if you are dismissed with less than 2 years you are owed notice pay unless you have committed gross misconduct- if it isn’t paid then you can sue for wrongful dismissal. If you have more than 104 weeks service (sometimes 103) then you can claim for unfair dismissal although expiry of a fixed term contract is likely to be fair. you can bring a claim for unfair dismissal if you have less than 104 weeks service if you have been dismissed for asserting a statutory right, whistleblowing or discriminatory reason you don’t see that many unfair dismissal claims in footy because the statutory cap is about 80k plus also most managers leave under settlement agreements and there’s a mechanism in the standard Fa contract which pays them off quite handsomely..!
I was under impression (even if it’s only football) that if a manager signs a contract unless it’s gross misconduct if the club ‘fire’ them they get the remainder of the contract paid or until they find another role, is that not correct? Edit: just seen your first response
I think Conways thrown his teddy out the pram because Daniel stood up to him and wouldn't be pushed into saying what he wanted.. Totally despicable man imo.
