Zola Leaves Pittodrie


Recommended Posts


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.

 

Yes, an employee has protection. He either agreed to a reduced amount of money or none.

 

We would not have paid out his contract. Why would we? If we were just going to pay it out, we'd have kept him around as an backup squad player.

 

So there wouldn't have been a "hefty pay-off" and there is no excuse to have a stupid go at McInnes. Why do you think you are? Redstar?

McInnes is human and like the rest of us is not infallible, no matter how much wishful thinking you apply.

 

this is exactly what we admire about him, he see's a mistake and even if it is his mistake, he rectifies it. In the past we've put up with knuckle dragging morons who will stick by their own players out of sheer stubbornness which has seen is sit in a pish poor league position or fail badly in the cups

Contract isnt the key word, what was in the contract about releasing him early are the key words. Have you seen that? Didnt think so.

 

He could quite easily be sacked and have no come back. He was not employed for over 2 years meaning unfair dismissal aint an option.

 

Just like we did with Wylde though AFC would've known he was wanted and that contract would've been all but done. That means AFC can negotiate a early release with little or no compensation as there will be no loss of earnings. Zola will be glad to get back to playing fitba at his own level and we can all move on.

If it satisfies people to believe that Zola got booted out then good luck to them. I am merely pointing out that he had a contract that was only half way through and he would have been totally stupid to just walk away with next to nothing. He could have been holding out for a hefty wad for some time, and has now probably got it.

Or alternatively if it satisfies you to speculate on something which you have no facts to base your opinion on...

I'll give you all the only fact that matters.

 

Zola is gone.

 

Delighted with that piece of business even if we paid off his contract in full.

 

The End.

 

But what if the club had paid the rent on his flat until the end of the month?

 

That's money we could have spent on signing Zlatan instead.

True... but keep in mind the debt will be gone in a couple of months, so we'll have tons of spare cash in our hipper.

 

And when that new stadium is finished, fuck, we'll be all Real Madrid and shit.
