RobElliott 1077 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 This won't end well for Ashworth. He has been shown to have breached contract so if he ever leaves Man U he will find it a lot tougher to get another job at the same level due to prior conduct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 4054 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 I worked at a place where someone quite high up in finance was made redundant with immediate effect and she was was dragged out while deleting spreadsheets screaming that the company was screwed as a result. I think the phrase "backup" was alien to the stupid twat. (This was before cloud was a thing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short arse plans to argue that we sent him on gardening leave before he'd indicated he wanted to accept the Man United job, we're waving around an email saying but you had accepted it, you just hadn't bothered your arse to tell your employer. Also, I don't think there's anything that says we have to wait for him to accept the role. As soon as we know he's in contact with a competitor, I'd assume we're allowed to enforce his gardening leave. Obviously lawyers will know best on this, but it seems a weak basis for arbitration. He might be getting bounced into it by arrogant Jim, and that's why Man United are saying they'll pay his legal costs. This explains the timing of the release of yesterday's story about Ashworth's cockup with his email. Presumably secretly conversing with a rival employer behind your current employer's back, prior to informing your current employer, then expressing a desire to take a job with said rival, prior to availing your current employer of the opportunity to protect their own interests and sensitive information is grounds to be placed on gardening leave. Well perhaps. I mean, really, its a maybe because, of course, I'm no expert on how contracts work, like Ashworth. The release of yesterday's story spells out the timeline perfectly (with some added dishonesty and rule breaking/avoidance thrown in for good measure). It is 100% timed to torpedo this completely ridiculous defence by Ashworth/ManU. And it's a wonderful lesson in how to use the media to your advantage. We've established the club acted in its best interests to protect sensitive information by placing Ashworth on gardening leave. Clearly his "secret" emails have shown that we had an almost prescient level of awareness, almost like we could somehow see the future (or one idiot's email account). On the other hand, I'm guessing Ashworth only learned that the club knew about his secret dealings with ManU yesterday*, unfortunately, for him & ManU, that would be after he'd already submitted his argument laying the groundwork for his arbitration case. So now he's married to an argument that is demonstrably false. And, moreover and best of all, its false in the best sense that the club only has need to utilise Ashworth's own words to demonstrate the argument for placing him on gardening leave. Your move, Ratcliffe. Edit: *Just saw the next story from Hope. So Ashworth did know that the club knew about his secret email? Or did he actually think he'd successfully deleted it and covered his tracks? Oh my. This just keeps getting better.

I can't imagine there's a single clued-up person in the world of football who's looked at our trajectory and Man U's and figured he'll swap one for the other, so they must be getting ready to pay him the big wonga. Hope he'll enjoy losing half of it in the inevitable legal battle when we sue him for breach of contract. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be fun just for the moment when Klopp turns and reveals his true self when he realises you aren't a sycophant Liverpool supporter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
