Should owners be able to sue managers?

Post by 21212 »

Should owners be able to sue managers when they are negligent to the team they manage? Is it currently possible?

For example, let's look at Pellegrini.
It is clear to everyone that his lack of sorting out the defensive side of our team is bordering on a criminal act. We all know that we may get away with it for the first 7 or 8 games but after that, when managers have seen our defensive problems, we will get absolutely slaughtered defensively.
By acting like a Sunday league manager and not coaching/upgrading our defence, is Pellegrini performing a criminal act? He will cost the owners millions, so should they be able to take him to court for list earnings?

Your trolling gets worse. List earnings, you fucking bellend. :lol:
Communism deprives no man of the power to appropriate the products of society; all that it does is to deprive him of the power to subjugate the labour of others by means of such appropriations.

You will have to forgive him Nev, hes too busy drafting something to rubbish Fornals and Haller to put enough attention on his latest contribution.

I`m sure owners would love the idea, but being able to sack without payoffs should suffice.


If we continue to defend like we did yesterday against a mediocre German team he wont be employed by xmas regardless of what happens at the other end.
Their 1st string in the first half got behind us with ease but for a couple of dodgy decisions the scoreline could have been reversed

OK let's unpack this and see if all these interesting ducks you mention, swim in a straight line.

So if a manager essentially loses too many games,should the board sue him ? Like start court proceedings and get the lawyers involved. What normally happens and in fact always happens, is they dispense with his services at a convenient time decided by themselves.

Should that club respectively sue that manager after his sacking, rather than pay his contract off is one for employment tribunal law.

The problem is intent. Can you prove a manager was intentionally fucking useless rather than just bog standard fucking useless in the normal understanding of that description.

and what I've noticed - just to give a more personalised opinion,although nobody has asked for it - is by the very first stage, of somebody giving a hint of being in the slightly fucking useless camp then they are heading for the exit door, before anybody asks...did they intend this
