Zola Leaves Pittodrie

[dave_min]

What if's don't justify anything. The sure thing is that it will have cost us money, and quite a lot, probably

 

No.

[RabidGiraffe]

And Wylde. How many strikers would that have paid for?

 

Wylde left at his own request to move to St. Mirren. We won't have paid a penny.

In memory for him

BOUNCE!!

 

NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA

[fifered]

His contract was cancelled. With a year to go means he would have had a hefty pay-off, which could have quite a hit on the budget for next season.

 

McInnes can't afford another of these mistakes.

You're a right bundle of joy on here just now. Would you prefer to have kept zola and not bother with boyd, were he to be the replacement?

[dervish]

Yet another player with bundles of ability who was never given the chance to shine. Our win % when Zola was a key player in the squad told the true story to how important he was in the squad.

 

I'm sorry but we don't tolerate casual racism here.

[Frank Butcher]

 

But with any luck the details of their contracts might make it that we haven't paid very much at all... I'm not a lawyer but employment law for a freelancer, they still can be performance managed out of clubs... You're a striker, you haven't scored goals, we've performance managed you out of the club, here's 3 months pay...

 

 

You could be on to something.

Joking aside I hear they had a cracking presentation for his leaving do.

 

 

 

 

 

 

[SkyeDon]

The right decision. All the best to him. Thanks for the three goals.

I'd +1 you, but I have no +1 function.

 

How come some cunts still have the +1 function and I don't?

 

What's up with that?

[elephantstone78]

You must not have used it properly so it was taken from you until you promise not to abuse it again kelt. Ps gas man episode of bottom was on bbc 2 last night. You're right it was v funny.

Pps I realise that has nothing to do with Zola leaving

My tuppence worth is he was a truly dreadful player and am really glad he has left. Hopefully he will sign for a fellow premiership club so he can play against us in future.

I'm stunned at Stoneybloke managing to find a negative view of this positive news.

[Dynamo]

Think Zola is lucky Aberdeen had a good season last year. Otherwise he would have got dogs abuse as he may have had more chances and promptly been utter shite.

 

Instead we had a decent season and I will just look back on Calvin Zola and laugh at how bad he was. Cult hero.

 

 

Great photo.

 

Pikey bastards.

I'd +1 you, but I have no +1 function.

There are cunts and there are priviliged cunts. I think the NSA block you.

[RTYD]

Good to see McInnes recognising his mistake. That twat McGhee never would.

Nothing in the word "cancelled" signifies "paid out".

[CalgaryDon]

I can't imagine Zola been on as big a wage as some seem to be suggesting. He played for Burton before signing for us and I Doubt he'd have been given a large increase when originally signing for us. Del Boy did the right thing moving him on. I assume it what a mutual decision.

[Stoneybloke]

Maybe employment law is different in Australia, but the key word is "contract". In this country, whether it is right or wrong an employee has some protection under the law. Unless there is some gross misconduct, the contract has to be honoured.

Not scoring more than 3 goals could come under that.

[dave_min]

Does it fuck.

 

"Here, Calv. Burton want you back. We can cancel your contract and you go sign for them or you can sit on the bench for a year"

 

Cost = £0.

Do you not think there has been some form of agreement between both parties?

Both parties can come to an arrangement. Nothing in employment law to stop that. He might be happy to go away with nothing as his agent has something lined up or he just wants to play every week.

[Stoneybloke]

Do you not think there has been some form of agreement between both parties?

Yes, more than likely, but he or his agent will have negotiated a pay-off.

[DD1903]

This won't have been done if it wasn't in the interests of the club, so I doubt that - if there even was one - it was a big pay off.

[elephantstone78]

Maybe twl could come up with a fair basis of remuneration using a handicap system of goals scored.

[dj_bollocks]

But you could equally look at it this way...

 

"Mate, you're not in my plans, at best you'll be on the bench for the remainder of your contract... So what I propose is letting you go with 3 months pay and as it's pre season you're much better placed to go and find a new club"

 

Now any lazy arsed cunt could quite happily sit around and do fuck all as contracted, but I'd like to think that AFC would be smart enough now to have some get out of contract clauses, so that they can at any point in the contract decide to terminate the agreement with immediate effect with an agreed fee... So "if" we paid him 3 months, then I actually see that as great because it means we've saved paying him the remaining 9 months of the contract he has... Money which can go elsewhere, hopefully to obtain a far better proven striker in "pasty hunt" Boyd...

 

Round of applause all round as far as I'm concerned - he won't have been paid full contract, guaranteed.

[fifered]

In the market of players we operate we're always going to get some who don't turn out as we thought they might. McInnes has done what others for almost 20 years at pittodrie have not and has acted quickly to sort it out. It's only a positive as far as I can see.

[StandFree1982]

I'd rather we paid 100% of his wages than have him sitting on the bench, using our facilities and having to pay him win bonuses or appearance bonuses if/when he does get the fleeting appearance.

 

So even at 100% pay off, I doubt we'd have to pay for appearance/win bonuses, so in the long run it's a better option.

 

I'd rather we only paid a smaller percentage mind you!
