Doesn't paint the SPFL in a very professional light. However, it paints us in an even worse light. Banter aside (GIRUY Crawford) Lang and Campbell should go, this should be the final nail in their ever sealing coffin. Oot. Now, The balance of probability is that the document was put together by a half wit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agent makes team aware that client would be interested in being their manager. Team asks what contract manager is on. Team have a chat and make the decision that they would like said manager. Team tell said managers agent that they would be interested. Team then phone managers chairman and ask for permission to speak to manager. Chairman pulls a ridiculous number out of his head in terms of compensation to speak to manager. Team laugh at that number and tell managers agent they arent paying anything like that and that if the manager wants to come to falkirk he'll have to resign. Manager complains to chairman that he wants to speak to falkirk. Chairman ludicrously gives the manager right to speak to falkirk but not about terms of the job etc( what the feck is all that about) . Manager resigns and moves to Falkirk. Now normally at this stage some form of sensible compensation would be worked out between the clubs but instead Morton decide to go to the SPFL and start greeting which has ended up with them getting absolutely nowt instead of a sensible sum for breaking a years employment . I don't think we've done anything much different from most apart from maybe not asking for permission to speak to the backroom staff perhaps.

port-ton Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Love it when the Falkirk leagle eagles come out the woodwork again talking like they have a clue about anything. I'll be back when we get our compensation. 150k spent on compo, big wage January signings and relegation anyway. Glorious. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nearly as good as the Greenock Legal Eagles that seem to everything about employment law. On another note the most f*cked up thing about it was M Lang wasnt allowed to take the case for Falkirk's behalf as she is a working lawyer how f\*cked up is that one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LauriestonBairn Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Nope. Had to await the outcome before thatNo provision for compensation or no notice period [emoji51]. Falkirk were punished for tapping up Ray McKinnon and inducing him into terminating his contract with Morton. Nothing to do with breaching his contract. No compensation for you . 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second image shows how badly the document was cobbled together. Read the last sentence. Who proof read that howler? Civil suits are based on the Balance of Probability actually. So Morton have precedent now that Falkirk are guilty and, therefore, any compensation would be sought on the basis that Falkirk - and by extension Ray etc. - are guilty.

Ray McKinnon had “no specific period of notice” in his contract.Ray McKinnon tears up his contract legally, Falkirk appoint him.

Scosha Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Safe to say none of us really have a clue where this goes from here. I'd be surprised if we ended up with any money. I'm pleased we've come out of this well though. Would've liked a bit of cash, but that statement is pretty damning of FFC and McKinnon & Co. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone came out of it looking good. Mortons undoing on getting no money was on the fact their contract didn't have clauses for him leaving. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long Suffering Bairn Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Surely some team might want to swap Fasan, Brough and Harrison for a striker? Please Ray do the business. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Toon Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Really liked this part of the tribunal ruling, "Mr McKinnon was particularly unimpressive in his evidence and we were unable to accept that he was a sufficiently credible witness for his evidence to be relied upon by us..." Great reputation to have when you are trying to deal with players and their agents. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
