    I suppose ol' Ken will give into a pack of quavers if we offer him it.

    Right i have heard Nigel has given Hull until Monday morning to sort it or he will quit as manager and come here. So either Hull needs to compromise or it goes to a tribunal. Top is going to up his offer as he knows he is in the driving seat

    Snodgrass is better than Gradel, we got about £1.75 mill for him after you got your sell on clause. Will be at least 3 mill, and I doubt even that would be enough.

    WRONG. IF NP QUITS...then i guess Hull will sue him and maybe get a court injunction to stop him doing that.

    whilst nobody is prevy to NP contract @ Hull, under employment law there will be a notice period of somesort. normally 1, 3 or 6 months notice is needed. LCFC wont wait for NP thats for sure. NP will go on garden leave.

    oh by the way, Papa Allam does not give into threats. This will just make him dig his heels in even more. The only loser Can be NP. end of.

    If you were in the driving seat of negotiations why would you ever up your offer?

    mmmmmm thing is here no one knows what is in Nigels contract, so this is how it works..... read on McDuff....
    How to resign from your job

    You should make it clear to your employer that you are formally resigning. You can give your resignation verbally, unless your contract of employment says otherwise. However, it's always a good idea to put it in writing, saying:

    * how much notice you are giving
    * what your last day will be

    If you want to explain your reasons for resigning, putting it in writing will make it easier to organise your thoughts.

    Give your employer the right amount of notice. By law, you must give one week's notice if you have worked for your employer for a month or more. Your contract may demand longer. ......(AH, NOT 1, 3, or 6 Months then??)

    Remember that:

    * your resignation can't be taken back, unless your contract allows it, or your employer agrees
    * you will get your final pay on your normal pay day unless your contract says differently - you don't have the right to ask for it any earlier
    * as long as you have given notice in accordance with the terms of your contract, your employer must accept your resignation

    ...make of it what you will the crucial thing is what does his contract say? I would think he knows, and if he has given them an ultimatum then he must of taken advise first... the plot, as they say thickens... I'd gladly wait a week for Nigel to finish his garden off, after all, will be worth more when he sells it ...

    All correct for normal employees, but once you get to people earning well into six figures, contracts tend to get rather more complicated. I believe Brownie had a three month notice period on his contract, I would assume that Nigel has the same, so if he resigns, he can't start work for someone else until either three months is up, or his old employer agrees to allow him to take up new employment, which he'll only do if there's a compensation package involved.

    That puts in exactly the same position as the one we're in now, which is why I suspect he hasn't resigned already.

    As you say, none of us know what the terms of his contract are, so it's all speculation and there's not much to do in the garden this time of year anyway.

    Why call us Festa? We dont call you Dull? Moronic and childish, I was quite enjoying reading the differing views of HULL and LEICESTER fans until I cam across this idiot. If you cant make a reasoned arguement, **** off!

    To be fair, on our board, several of your posters do insist on referring to us as Hell all the bloody time.

    Copying and pasting off the internet? <laugh> this will be legally binding then!

    The point OLM made is 100% correct, in a contract you can put in whatever clauses you like and so long as the other party signs it, it's binding.

    Nobody knows what's in his contract other than those involved, so it's pointless to speculate over his notice period. But what we have seen in many other scenarios is that managers can either resign and take up the new position immediately (i.e. Grayson from Blackpool to Leeds) or the new employer buys the manager out of their old contract so that the notice period no longer applies (NPearson from Leicester to Hull).

    ProudFox what you've said is absolute drivel. If "top" was in the driving seat this would have been resolved ages ago. The very fact that it's dragging on and on shows sensible people that Leicester won't pay what Hull are demanding and therefore no one is going anywhere at the time being. The driving seat belongs to Allam, as soon as he relents, NP is free to go to Leicester. But as OLM rightly states, Allam is a stubborn old bugger and I guess he won't relent any time soon.

    Warren Joyce is currently odds on favourite to take over at City, it's my opinion that the stalemate will remain in place either until Leicester pay up, Leicester drop out, or Hull get a firm answer from Joyce saying that he'll leave United to take over.

    ..yes,yes,yes,......well that's the point no one knows what's in his contract, but, as I said, Nigel Pearson certainly does, and IF he is 'threatening' to resign I would think he knows all the senarios of what would/could follow next.... if as you say he has in his contract a 3 month notice period he would be foolish to resign, now Nigel Pearson can and will be called many things, but foolishness is about the last thing I'd tag him with...

    I'd suggest that if he could resign then he would have done by now...

    ...fair point but maybe was hoping to go they way he left us, not expecting all this trouble, I don't believe anyone of us would have gone the resignation route first off, always better to find a peaceful solution, resignation is a sort of sledgehammer and walnut case, ... he's only doing this as a last resort IF of course he has said he is going to...

    Definitely but this is four days after the original event. Most of us would offer the peaceful way out to the employer and if he rejects that and you're still desperate to leave, you hand in your notice so long as that's a viable step.

    ..but he's not in on the negotiations, it's between the chairmen, so there he is waiting 'outside the door' so to speak, until he's told there's a problem he's not going to know, so when the talks started, all correct and proper, and again I stress IF he has said he will resign, only said that when he was told of the problem... he will have been nowhere near the closed doors these meetings are taken place behind... so he can only react when he is told there is a problem.. there's the reason for the time lapse.. IMHO

    Actually pal you do. Your own Wummers have been at it for such a long time, my remarks seem so mild by comparison. It&#8217;s amusing to receive this over the top reaction, quite rewarding really. Thanks, made my day. :)
