Claymores Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Must have been a fucking MASSIVE squad to blow a huge lead in the SPL and lose their last EVER games against us, home and away, then.... Makes you wonder how they were always "injury-ravaged", to be honest... f**k the SPL, f**k The SFL, the diddies and plastics, they could form their OWN league! Seriously, Bennett, what do you expect them to say? Given your lot's penchant for "having a word", and all? I'm confused - 67 players couldn't win the SPL under Sal's expert management??? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnforever1992 Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Prospectus read paragraph 105 Certain players of RFC 2012 plc (Alan McGregor, Kyle Lafferty, Rhys McCabe, Sone Aluko, Steven Davis, John Fleck, Steven Naismith, Steven Whittaker and Jamie Ness) purported to object to the transfer of their contracts of employment to RFCL pursuant to TUPE. RFCL maintains that these purported objections were incompetent and that the players instead unilaterally terminated their contracts of employment in an unlawful manner. Arbitration proceedings under Article 99 of the Articles of Association of the SFA were commenced on 5 July 2012 in the name of RFC 2012 plc. Any damages due would be payable to RFCL. RFCL was not a member of the SFA at that time and therefore the reference had to be made by RFC 2012 plc. RFC 2012 plc accepts that it has no financial interest in the outcome. Discussions took place with representatives of some of the players and agreements have now been reached with Steven Davis, John Fleck and Rhys McCabe. Representatives acting on behalf of the remaining players have challenged RFCL's rights to participate in the process in any capacity given that it was not a member of the SFA at the time of the alleged breaches of contract and the date of the reference to the SFA under Article 99. A preliminary hearing has been fixed for 7 January 2013 at which these jurisdictional challenges will be determined. If RFCL is successful at this hearing, then the claims against the remaining players will proceed to a full hearing. At this point it is anticipate that such a full hearing will take place in March or April of 2013. Preliminary advice from senior counsel is that RFCL's prospects of winning these preliminary arguments are good. However, it is not currently possible to quantify these claims in full. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand A Union which publicised more than they already have would be serving its members extremely poorly. Their duties are to their members, not to the gutter press. No doubt Jabba will provide enough crap to fill the back pages and have Tedi et al proving how hard-done by the gers are. Given Charlie's obviously unblemished record over TUPE and employment law in general, this could get interesting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Bairn - I referred to that above - it is basically a statement within the prospectus that they might have income from chasing players. I asked above if Chuckie Cheese will how issue an addendum to the prospectus admitting they are being chased for a helluva lot of money by 67 players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
