Anything in there about compensation payment to us from Shrewsbury for taking Hurst/Doig?

They would've paid us and someone on the Shrewsbury forum reckons he's heard it was close to £250k.


I heard it was more like £90k.

It's nothing like what is has actually cost us to appoint and sack two managers and two assisstants. Plus pay quite a few players who have hardly kicked a ball. If we had a smaller more settled squad it seems to me we could afford to splash out on a couple of top quality players. Our wage bill has been bloated for too long with quantity rather than quality.

Wasn't Hurst on a 6 month rolling contract? Shrewsbury would have had to pay just that wouldn't they, or am i missing something?

And Bignot was near the end of his first 6 months so I doubt if he's have walked away with something huge to be honest. I am sure we could have binned the other 2 clots (Whilde & Moore) for failing to put the cones out in a straight line or something.  

Usually so I understand at this level at least if a manager has the rest of his deal paid up it's not in a lump sum it's month by month and when they get a new job the payments stop.

Does it mention anything about Mighty.... doesn't that role provide some kind of income stream now as opposed to being a cost?

He'll have been owed 6 months worth wouldn't he (as he would if he'd been sacked in December, June or September)?

Yeah quite possibly, the vagaries of rolling deals are beyond me TBH, listening to Martin Allen on the radio a few weeks ago he said it is not uncommon for NL, L2 and even some L1 manager to receive no pay off if the are sacked, I find that hard to believe though.

Depends on the terms of his sacking - details of which appear to be sketchy - if he broke the terms of his contract, then it could easily have been nothing.

So if the loans are benign surely they are just now written off with debt owed? so why are they still an issue?

For me this is one BIG reason no one has come in to buy the club, im fairly certain there is and has been interest.

Mike Parker for instance would probably be willing to invest if Chairman Fenty was no longer in the picture. Shame it seems the Ross family dont seem to support the club in anyway really as it is part of the fabric of the town and lets face it  it would be a drop in the ocean for them to own the club.

Is it possible for the major shareholder who is not the chairman for some reason to be voted off the board by other board members. It seems very strange that we never hear anything from the board members other than the NON Chairman-why is this.have they had tongues cut out ?
