Blue Nosed Babe 20,601 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 If you are not committed to Rangers then you can fuck off. No one is bigger than the club. The board did the right thing getting rid of people who were not committed to us. True Hair Bear and CRARFC 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simple as that, fans were lied to and King's statement confirms that today. Will we see any pressure from them?

It's complex IMO. We are at the same level as Aberdeen. With sound spending we will be better than them next season. Don't think we will win the SPL next season tbh.

Misteral 2,932 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Quote I was therefore not surprised when the management team’s agent approached the Club’s Managing Director Stewart Robertson to request a meeting which was held in Glasgow on Monday this week. The outcome of this meeting was that the agent subsequently offered that Mark, David and Frank would resign with immediate effect without compensation as long as the Club, in turn, agreed to waive compensation from any new Club that they signed for. After discussion the Board accepted this offer and employment was immediately terminated. The point is though, was this acceptance communicated to the offeror? If so, when and to whom. This seems to be crucial to the outcome of this dispute. Ger_onimo and Carsons Dog 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young Bob 1,360 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 21 minutes ago, The_Razza said: Their agent asked if they could basically take their resignation back, which the board were considering. I guess they allowed them to carry on business as usual whilst they made that decision. They should have made that decision faster though because the timing of it all was terrible, should have been decided and all sorted before the press conference. From my interpretation of events this was a couple of days after their rep had asked the board to allow them to leave with no compensation. The three of them should have been shown the door after the board accepted the resignation. rbt1548, dougie76 and Bears r us 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris182 6,290 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 9 minutes ago, Dlydon81 said: I don't agree - it reads like there was a negotiation but no offer. Anyway Unless warburtons contract excludes the standard clause on resignation - they need a letter in writing. Did MW not have to sign his employment contract or could the agent do it for him when he originally agreed it - this is Mickey Mouse from the board. i think the discussions did happen as described, the board thought they were gettting lucky as they can't afford to just sack him, MW didn't get the Forrest job and the board have tried to force through the suggested negotiations. incidentally if the employnent was immediately terminated why was MW in a press conference a few days later and only 4 hrs before they announced the resignation. Amateur hour from that feckin idiom DK It clearly says the Agent offered their resignation! Said offer may have been written, it doesn't say.

scottyscott1963 18,301 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Has the serpents head appeared at Auchenhowie as he said he would and claiming he hadn't resigned.

MW talks usual shite and lies. After presser the board decide not to defer resignation. Plausible? Unfortunately that is far too sensible a take for a number of our posters to grasp. eskbankloyal 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea about money matters, except that King was right to express his concern that money spent and wasted on bum players is what we were all saying. IIRC he said £30m would need to be invested to compete with them for titles. That to me means £30m invested in the team so if he's going to try and claim it's been spent maintaining facilities or anything else than that excuse just isn't going to wash with me. ritchieshearercaldow and Prso's headband 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monday - Meeting between Robertson and agent. Tuesday - Robertson takes the proposal to the board who discuss it. Wednesday - Agreed by the Board and MW is told his employment is terminated. Paperwork commences. Thursday - Forest give the job to Brazil. The agent then moves goalposts. The Board stop the paperwork and MW is asked to continue with his duties. Friday - MW takes the press conference whist the goalpost move is being considered. After the presser the board decide not to defer resignation. ???

No mention of having the resignation in writing though, which is slightly worrying. Surely MW wouldn't flat out deny it if he'd signed something? he offered his resignation and they accepted it on monday and then went to talk to forest. that should rule out him of saying that it was all a big mistake and I didnt really quit.
