[Archived] Steve Kean resigns!

[SAS]

If he does sue for his dismissal then maybe the club can sue him for loss of income. Be a few million quid...

[RevidgeBlue]

It will be a very interesting one and my bet will be that both parties will soon reach an amicable agreement, more than originally on offer to Kean, in order to avaoid dirty linen being washed in public and also to 'protect' Kean for future employment opportunities.

Agreed. But not much more hopefully for the reason I outlined above.

Is it worth hanging fire for a couple of days to see if they do a special to get the fans back on the season ticket wagon?

[jannerman]

Let's just hope the alleged team interfering wasn't having Myles start (I know he's on loan!! Can't we just leave him there?)

Two separate people have told me they've seen Arry at Stanley house tonight. Posted this earlier.

Maybe he's just there for something else, maybe he's giving inside scoop on Sherwood, though the Redknapp/Sherwood combo sounds very interesting and would really get the place buzzing.

I think todays article from Nick Harris/sporting intelligence is what really broke the camels back.

Link? Never Mind. Sorry I have 30 pages to catch up on I'm gonna read every post in this thread. Only just found out I had to put in a 14 hour shift yesterday so just came home and crashed. This is awesome news indeed. I'm very interested to see how many of those football people backing Kean will now call him and offer him a job. I do believe he will try to sue the club.

"We're going to claim he walked out and it wasn't our doing so that we have to pay him no/minimal compensation"

[SouthAussieRover]

Congratulations Glen and to your colleagues. You had your detractors but you pressed on, I truly believed it wouldn't have happened without your group's actions.

The complete answer to those who said nothing could be done.

Very happy awakening this morning. Get the manager selection right and we may have a club to identify with again.

I'd be happy with Sherwood from what I know but another idiot and we are finished.

The biggest thing I can take from this is that Derek Shaw is an absolute clown. He and Agnew are next!

Just had a thought - there's all the Scottish mafia/ Jerome Anderson/ Kean owns shares in the Club conspiracy theories gone in one fell swoop!

why? just make him resign and silent whilst carrying on.

Thanks for that Winston (great name) but I had already found it on the back of my last season ticket wallet. Got My old seat back and will be there cheering the lads to victory against Wolves. OH HAPPY DAY!!!

[philipl]

Congrats to den and Fife!

Kean going because of interference in team selection is going to make getting the next manager interesting.

Mrs D's disappointment could well be genuine.

Derek Shaw's cluelessness is genuine

Oh what a happy day. Happy days are here again...

Putting Pune out of my mind but the JA owns Rovers conspiracy theory will only be dead when we see what comes after Kean....

[dwayne cage]

Let's hope Venkys don't make the same mistake getting a total no mark in twice!

Minority is buying tickets surprisingly well today and we are playing in London.

[Kelbo]

Probably correct.

However, if his contract is payed out in full, just say 9 months at 100k per month for the sake of argument, I can't imagine that any claim for unfair dismissal would have any significant additional financial value.

If he goes for unfair dismissal, a counterclaim for the lies he told Venkys, ie: he discovered Jones, was there to help Fulham to Promotion, Hoillet wouldnt leave, defo wouldnt get relegated, the fans are all behind me apart from 1% etc etc - Shebby saw through that and reported to the owners, then theres the Glen Mullan letter outlining the past 12 months, the Allardyce Crook comments!! he would be a fool to persue a case!
