The next manager appointment (new thread)

[blue to the bone]

Lunacy was giving him a clause in his contract to pay him an extra years wages if we sack him. We actually financially incentivised him to do badly.

Do we know this . Bar a podcast
Lunacy would be paying him to be a failure.

Bobble confirmed it. This is Everton I don't doubt it!

And this is why Everton is such a laughing stock …bobble confirmed it . Wtf

 

[CielosGrises]

As I said I'd sack him but if he's staying give him an incentive to actually win matches and get as many points as possible. As it is I don't think he's particularly bothered what happens as he still gets paid the same money.

If he needs more incentive than 5m a year to put his heart into it - get rid out of principal.

 

[jceverton]

If £5m + £3m ain't enough to motivate him I don't think money is the solution. Maybe bars of soap in a pillow case, full metal jacket style, is the answer?

Not if he gets 5m + 5m for being sacked

So what are you proposing? Upping the bonus to £6m?

Just get rid.

Few other sources mentioned it as well. It's bonkers management.

Why would he take any bonus that doesn’t outdo what his contract already says?

And if that’s the case, we should sack him and hire someone else that would be on a more reasonable wage for a team at the bottom of the table which would all add up to essentially cost us the same as giving him a bonus.

Either get rid (preferred option) or make it financially worth his while not to be sacked. That's the only two logical options.

Gardening leave is cheaper than sacking him

Exactly, either sack him or financially incentive him to stay up.

So get rid, then. You can't possibly be advocating giving Sean Dyche £11m. Right?

I imagine he would argue that that was constructive dismissal and that he would be entitled to his payout.

Theoretically, we don't know exactly details of his contract. Sacking him and finishing a few positions higher than currently makes it a wash.

Possibly. But United did it successfully with Dan Ashworth

Yeah I think that would arguably be the issue.
