The Dude 20,027 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 7 minutes ago, Misteral said: The specif offence will breach of SFA rules regarding betting. It's not the club's job to investigate breaches of SFA rules, that's for the SFA to do. The club's job is to decide what to do if a player is found guilty. They decided not to sack Black or Simonsen which is their prerogative. The club will have choices within its disciplinary procedures which will probably include (though I don't know) the power to sack him. I think they are waiting to do so if he's found guilty. Then why organise several meetings before his hearing? The timeline simply doesn't make a shred of sense. If we're waiting for that then we organise a meeting on Nov 18th. Not October 13th then October 27th. That's just nonsensical. EDIT: Even if found guilty he would likely need to go through the clubs internal disciplinary process unless it's expressly stated a breach of certain 3rd party rules could result in dismissal. There needs to be a relevance to his role to simply bin him for it. (a bin man nicked for drink driving could reasonably be sacked without going through internal proces, a bin man nicked for breach of the peace would be much harded to sack) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there is many more but as i say you cant help a blind man see when he wants to be a blind man.. You can help a man that can see by actually showing him something. If the Board said anything in relation to contract disputes in the past that could have left them open to legal difficulties, then that would be stupid. Ergo, the opposite may well be the correct course of action this time. No? An I emphasise IF, because I don't know what the statement SoS released was because you haven't posted it. So how it compares to this, I can't say. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's on a fixed-term contract so would have slightly different options than a permanent employee (folk in a normal job) would. He could potentially raise an unfair dismissal claim if he's unhappy with the reasons given despite having not been employed two years but it would be much harder if the club can make a reasonable business case for the dismissal/unfavourable treatment. EDIT: He could also, possibly, raise breach of contract if the club hasn't followed the mechanism in his contract for early termination.

Maybe they are teasing him or or trying to find out where he stands. TBH, I really wonder why so many people are getting their knickers in a twist about this. Barton fucked things up with the manager and also the SFA. The club are actually playing things the right way IMO and hopefully it will save us money in the long term. But we shall see. All this talk about ' what an embarrassment this is' and 'we demand answers to this now' and 'we want and end to this now' is pretty laughable.

You're not going to have much success if you're going to make statements then expect people to just accept it. Evidencing what you say is not wiping anyone's arse, it's doing your own work in order that your argument has some kind of credibility. You know that the normal state of affairs is for the person making the claim to provide the evidence. You MUST know this. Feel free to provide us with a link. In the meantime, clearly, given your apparent stance on what you seem to be claiming are comparable previous information leaks on contract disputes, you must think the Board are correct in not commenting this time.

You're right in terms of fixed term contracts but I would hope the club would fire him for fair reasons based on his conduct and would also follow the correct procedure as per the company rules. If they do, I doubt Barton would have much legal recourse. I think that is what will happen if he's found guilty by the SFA. Mind you the SFA might find him not guilty or dismiss the charges just to fuck us over. They are not our greatest fans. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club really havent played this well at all they've let it drag on and on when it should have been dealt with sooner. If the club had grounds to sack him, he'd be gone. If the betting stuff had any part he wouldn't have been in for an hour today. That it became a disciplinary issue in the first place is beyond ridiculous and doesn't reflect well on MW imo. Barton's charge with the SFA is no bigger an issue the MWs for being aggressive to a referee. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that if a player approached MW in that way he'd be on a formal disciplinary too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you an expert on employee tribunals or even knowledgeable on any internal discussions of Rangers FC? The actual penalties for betting regulations in the SFA handbook aren't clear but what is clear is they "aren't allowed". You don't have any knowledge of what happened at the training ground either. You don't know whether MW is in anyway responsible or Barton in that respect or even "the club", just the usual opinionated shite you see on here all the time. But you're sure the club are either just trying to fuck the fans over or are incompetent. Stick to your shitey blogs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
