Speculation Leicester refused permission to talk to Pearson?

[homer]

He'll resign of he needs to

Too right

They can't take him back now - so they either stick him on gardening leave and end up paying a wad of compo, or he resigns and it goes to tribunal

Either way we win (or lose, depending how you view it)

Sadly we will just have to sit and wait it out

 

[RHYDAL]

Could Hull take out some kind of injunction to stop him working elsewhere if he resigns?
Couldn't they argue that there were tapping up shenanigans?
Could they not sue Nigel for damages?
Hornet's nest methinks.

Someone spoke about that fact that if NP resigns, he would be in 'breach of contract'? WTF? If you resign, then the contract gets torn up surely?!!!

Depends if his contract has a clause in it saying he can't resign and then go and work for another club within 6 months or something like that.

I think the difficulties arise if the other party (in this case Hull) refuses to accept the resignation and carry on paying him. The thing about contracts is that they are a two way thing and you could potentially reach a situation where Hull obtain an injunction that prevents him moving on.

I would guess that a compromise is likely to be reached here over compensation but the time elapsed and silence from the two parties suggests that this isn't an easy one.

At best its certainly going to have cost a lot to bring back a manager via Sousa & Sven compensation packets when we had Pearson in the first place. No wonder everyone seems to feel its easy to rip off Leicester on transfers, wages & everything else.

The most annoying thing about this situation is that we are entirely dependent on stringer for information

he blocked me from following him on twitter because i called him a "**** who knows **** all" and is "shit at commentary" and he "was shit on The Apprentice".

No. There is Bert. Bert is in the know you know. Only tells us what is absolutely true because he is on the inside!

So you fully deserved it then ?

From Hull sources

"Breaking News ............... LCFC to focus on alternative Manager as Hull in Stalemate with pearson Billy Davies is Favourite to replace Sven Pearson has till lunch to resign or leicester pull out."

The above has just been posted on the Leicester paper's website.

Interesting comment earlier about Nigel not being right since Mark Prudue resigned over being disciplined in the Bullard incident. His acidic comments on Saturday tie in with that theory.

As I hinted earlier, its like a TV soap. I can just see Allam senior in the boardroom with his best Marlon Brandon voice saying "$crew the $astards," as henchment with bulging jackets and shades look straight ahead. meanwhile Adam Pearsons towards the door grim faced, drawing his mobile phone to his right ear poised to inform Leicester that the compensation has just been racked-up to 3 Million, plus vat.”

"sources"??? Don't you mean "Random posts from clueless posters on a Hull forum"?

 

[Uncle Connolly]

It doesn't mean we have to give in to their demands. We can walk away

Well that's entirely dependent on the owner's opinions on Pearson.

If they are 100% sure he and his team are to lead us to the Premier League then we must surely pay up.

So what the feck is happening then?

This must surely be the most infuriatingly frustrating manager search in the history of LCFC?

erm no i think he should have followed me.

We're arguing over compensation

Why do people find this so hard to understand

Because there would be no reason to slag off the club and call it a circus!
