Bluedell 5,624 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Don't see what the issue is. If he isn't getting paid what he is owed by the club then he is correct in taking legal steps to recover it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedell 5,624 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 The thing I don't quite understand is if these extra payments are in his contract, why didn't he raise it at the time? I'd imagine he has been trying to get the cash by other means over a period of time and has failed, leaving him no option but to go down this route. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
onevision 1,568 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 The guys entitled to have the spivs honour his contract and we shouldn't forget that he's one of the good guys that stayed when the rats deserted.... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,744 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Well, maybe I missed the small-print, but his 5-year contract ended and he got no new two-year deal, like he wished. Hence he went after his contract ended. What exactly is he looking for? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 It doesn't sound like it's that clear cut and the delay adds to that perception. He TUPED over on a wage we could ill afford, was paid incredibly well for what he had to do in the league we were in and now wants to pursue every pre-administration clause in his contract that has become irrelevant in the subsequent circumstances. McCoist is entitled to keep his £800k wage but it doesn't mean he should. Stockbridge too, with his £200k bonus. The management might reserve the right to eject you but that doesn't mean you have to like and respect them if they exercise that entitlement to do it to you for no reason. Claiming any bonus to do with pre-administration scenarios that don't translate to our new position just seems like money grabbing to me and I think we're entitled to be disappointed by it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the spivs in control of the club are entitled to give themselves stupidly large bonuses and pay offs - so that's ok then? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 My point is, not whether he's entitled, but is he a "good guy" for doing it? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
onevision 1,568 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 If you remove the fact that the guy plays football and for our club then i'm sure everyone of us would be looking to be paid for what we believe we are entitled to in any employment situation, no? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
compo 7,030 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 if we owe the man money .then pay it . 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebear54 0 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 If he's due anything he should have been paid. As is usual with the media, the piece is pretty vague so I m not clear what he is looking for exactly. PFA seem to be always very keen on taking Rangers to court. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
