After all, he's a Jambo and he isn't Michael Stewart or Alan Preston. Alan Preston, whether you agree with him or not, has been a Jambo all his life and buys several STs each year.....so he certainly is not Craig Levein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently we’ve moved on to ‘he’s been offered the job.’ OH COME ON Exactly I bet most people thought he had been offered it already! Surely the smart thing to do would be to make the offer first and announce if he signs.

Jambothump Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Feckin' nerve of Barnsley, a place I like. BTW, to sack the man, then expect us to pay them compensation 'cos they don't want to pay up his contract. Only if there there is a codicil saying should he be sacked and get another job in the contract period, they would not be liable to honour his contract terms. It woul be monumentally stupid, to sign into a contract, where if you are sacked a future employer has got to pay the former employer compensation to the one who has sacked you ? Not just honour previous contract terms ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
