Roberto Martinez and Everton heading for £10million compensation battle

[Dooguk]

Roberto and Oumar will spend their days sunning themselves on a tropical island, while Pookie
makes the Pina Coladas.

 

[Toffeelover]

He can sod off.

Like that "blunt and to the point"

 

[Toffeelover]

It is his pension fund as any other manager's job is unlikely unless it is Div 2.

 

[Rudolf Hucker]

Look, after we finished fifth you all got yourselves in a huff thinking Barcelona are going to nab him. We gave him a new contract and you all praised the club at the time.

Don't make me go back into the vaults and unlike the posts praising him to the heavens so I can like them again.

This.

kinda gross that people want martinez to get screwed on a contract he agreed to as an employee because they don't like football results. he's taking pretty typical action and as someone said it will be settled below his claim.

sorry but it's management's fault for offering up that five year deal.

even if he's a supremely wealthy worker he's still a worker and deserves some compensation for management breaking their side of a deal to cover their own bad decision making.

You'd expect there to be performance based clauses on his contract which could lead to early termination etc.

But knowing Bill and Elstone we do probably owe him his full wages.

I don't know many specifics about contract writing and especially nothing about the specifics of football manager contracts

Plus Kone too bet ya he's been on the blower to him

But according to many folk was great in the transfer market, there one or two successes.

Yeah. Some. Not the full contract paid up when he didnt fulfil his side of the deal.

Cuts both ways this.

True Carnt deny that He didn't have a clue on the defensive side and was denying what us fans could see wouldn't back down on his tactics and stuff like that mate

Cuts both ways this.

and they'll agree on some. this is a negotiation tactic and people are attacking martinez like he's personally threatening their families

also it does not cut both ways. he won't get his full contract because he doesn't have much leverage and the legal structures of most western nations insulate owners and their capital.

management offered him a contract of five years that was stupid and promised to pay him so much for it. they fired him for not doing that job as well as they wanted. unless there's something in the contract covering this they broke the contract and they have to compensate martinez

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Soft lad Kenwright gave him a bumper new contract after ONE season if I remember correctly. Thank Christ he is nowhere near the decision making process now.

And I can't remember anyone being up in arms about it at the time. Let's face it, we were all busy singing 'Roberto had a dream'.

 

[ToffeeDan]

Oh yeah, Roberto. You got removed cos you didn't do the job properly. That's the way it works in football.

 

[eyeeyepopeye]

Paid handsomely for failure!
