Not at all he is still getting paid so he is perfectly entitled to wait for a job he would like to come along.
I can't see there being a huge queue for him to be honest and I don't see him as the type of character that will take any available sh!t just to give Illicali a break...I think we may have him for the long haul?

It’s a difficult one for him too
He obviously had a decent reputation after Hamburg
He got ****ed over with recruitment then refused to adapt
He might not get another job at a decent level and may be on a really small wage if he does get a job so what would you do if he’s still getting 20-30 or whatever grand a week with us
He might be back coaching for free in Germany keeping his hand in
Not sure what I would do in his shoes

Personally, id be waiting until the right position came up for my family and I, enjoying time off with them on pay untill that role came along. I certainly wouldn't be rushing into something

Yes,it is a difficult one for him and I'm not sure what I'd do in his shoes either.

Ultimately,I don't think he'll jump into a low paid job unless it's something he feels really passionate about.Flip side is that the longer he's out of work the more difficult it will become to find something else?
 
It usually depends on the negotiations over the compensation.
Some managers will be paid for the length of their contract or until they get a new job others may negotiate a smaller amount but up front so if they go and get a job straight away they're are quids in but if it takes them longer it's the club that wins

This is what is wrong with football. In what other business would you still get paid indefinitely after being crap at your job and getting the sack?

TBF, these days it's quite common. We've just done it to someone as they'd technically done nothing we could sack them for, they just weren't delivering, So would have to go through a whole process of performance management and managing them out the business which can take months, so we just offered them a pay off.

It's a world apart from the one we live in GLP.

It's been going on for years in football and you're right,it is morally wrong in many circumstances but it won't change,it's part of the negotiation process now.

It's the safe option nowadays and becoming more and more popular...Dangle the carrot and hope for a bite:emoticon-0148-yes:

Much like Real Madrid spaffing out eight and a half million quid for someone who is a free agent in a months time. :emoticon-0138-think

If someone with a contract gets the sack, in whatever industry it's in, the terms of that sacking have to be negotiated. There's no hard and fast rule about what those terms should be.
It's different for most salaried people, in any industry, because they tend not to have contracts as such, they'll be on a months notice, 3 months, or whatever.

They don't get paid "indefinitely".
They get paid as per their contract, and no longer than what was agreed.
Why on earth would someone uproot their family to another part of the country, or in this case another country altogether, with no financial security for if (or in reality, when) it goes pear shaped? Of course, the alternative is to live away from your family for the duration, something which many wouldn't do or if they do then requires significant 'compensation' for living that life.
I'm not saying that money at the top end of football isn't often beyond obscene, it is.

It is obscene
But realistically where does it go

If the managers,coaches and players dont get most of it

Itd just line the owners pockets even more

While half the world actively watches football, and all the subscriptions etc then itll stay a massive revenue stream

Yeah, I know that. The same should apply here.
