    Gross misconduct five years before termination entitles the employer not to pay notice pay
    14 May 2015

    In the case of Williams and Leeds United Football Club [2015], the High Court considered whether the claimant was entitled to be paid 12 months’ notice pay, despite having been found by his employer to have sent pornographic images to three individuals five years earlier, which conduct was discovered after he had been given notice of termination.

    When the club discovered the claimant had sent the pornographic pictures, it argued that this was a repudiatory breach of the employment contract between the parties, and the club was therefore entitled, on a strict contractual basis, not to pay the claimant’s 12 months’ notice.

    As background, Mr Williams was in a senior management role at Leeds United Football Club. He was on a salary of £200,000 per annum. The club decided to restructure its operations and the claimant was given written notice of the termination of his employment by reason of redundancy…

    COMMENT ON THIS ARTICLE
    Watching the game at Oldham I was most impressed with Matt Smith they way he battered the central defenders Skirtal in particular reminde me of the young Joe Jordan. I think at 200k he would be well worth a punt forget Samaras this boy could have a very big future.
    I have said several times there are some daimonds in the lower leagues you just need to find themYoung Forrester at Brentford is another example
    We must get good yopungsters in they have no fear they are cheap and give 100%I was most impressed with young Smith who could work in tandem with Ross he never lost an aerial battle

    I am now looking for my post re Adam Smith as you will note and I must thank Matt for finding it as you are all aware I am computer illiterate that article was posted on the 28 January some 4 months before we signed him and to the best of my knowledge months before even a rumour got out With regard to Adam Smith who incidentally plays for Bournemouth now I wrote to Simon 2 weeks before he signed advising Simon to look at him .He must have liked what he saws he was actually playing on loan for MKDONS FROM SPURS
    Many thanks again Matt for your help perhaps we can find the other article re Adam Smith to shut up the court jester and his assistant

    TC any idea on who are the new owners but it seems obvious that Atkins would not come if MC was in charge and that having given the boot to White and Austin who Redders wanted he must be departing very soon

    2Players that will improve the team
    by leeds62 (U2387)

    COMMENT ON THIS ARTICLE
    Having spent a fair bit of time watching lower league games from my computer I would recommend the following 2 players to greatly improve our team
    1Keith Andrews ,BIG and strong ,,good with his head on set pieces, has a very good strike especially from outside the area and a good captain to boot just what we need in central midfield and would score 10 goals at least .£400k would get him as Blackburn want him of their books ,a steal for only 400k ,only draw back are his wages and his age 32.
    2. Adam Smith the best right back I have seen since Paul Reaney very fast and again good crosser and has a verocious shot, well worth a punt at500k no ego and at 20 will only get better.
    So KEN get your chest fund open and lets get these bargains now!

    The reason why Andrews didn't get signed was his wage demands
