5 Year Contracts

[LimerickTangerine]

Regardless wether or not we stick or twist with Appleton surely we wont hand out 5 year contracts to any manager again. Too long and too much of a risk regarding compensation if things go pear shaped.

 

[clappers]

I would have thought either party can give say three months notice to end the agreement and a set amount of compensation without the full remainder of the contract being paid up.

He's on a 4 year contract, not 5 , for what it's worth .

Must have got confused with Critchs contract renewal that time, even still 4 years is far too long

It's a four.

Jordan Gabriel got the 4+1 to fall off things at home and miss half a season

If Mansford was involved in drawing up the contract I suspect there will be a break clause or two.

Yeah I agree but would Appleton sign if that was the case?

Good one

Why didn't they offer him a 2 year contract and take it from there. If he turned out to be a great manager for us then offer him an extension to his contract. Why would you give an unproved Championship manager a 4.5 year contract?

I’am pretty sure Appleton won’t be too bothered if he’s potted as some good compo coming his way I’d have thought with this idiotic 4 year contract.

Looked like he didn’t give two shits stood on the touch line with his hands in his pockets as the goals went in.

A Championship managers job when you’re unemployed? What’s a few break clauses between friends.

 

[Fylde Seasider]

What if there are clauses, provisos and targets attached to this so called gold plated contract?

You don't think a player or manager who signs a long contract and then does next to nothing knowing they will get sacked and take home 4 years money do you?
