I would be surprised if we don't announce the signing of at least one if not two feyenord players And the Celtic defender or vlaar

Thanks King Billy Sounds like three good bits of news as it sounds like clyne is staying

Purely speculation on might part . There has been a fair bit in the news re van Persie at United. Given the Dutch connection could RK tempt him to saints

Shance , I take it your friend goes to the same weekly wives outing as Mrs Adam who wife

Tapioca

Whitey Yep fully aware of the difference between the two, Redundancy is a different ball game. Im not going to do a sermon on that side off life, but as you say some do get the two confused. I have an incling that Nigel was sent on gardening leave or had a handsome PILON period built into his severance package. I would say a minimum of 3 months for that level of post if not longer.

Benjii I have no idea what you do , you maybe right about the adkins , but then again you may not but employment law and contractual status can be quite complex matters to resolve Its not always black and white as you seem to imply Under the Employment Rights Act of 1996 there a six reason you could fairly dismiss an employee. Capability or lack of qualifications - He was pretty useless His conduct - His behaviour speaks for its self some other substantial reason that could justify his dismissal - Just combine the first two points A good employer would always follow correct procedures and practice. (Well in most cases) Sometime terminating a persons contract can be very complex, especially if the employee does not accept they have seriously breached their terms and conditions . Welcome to the real world Benjii

Hutch I would be interested to see what was in Osvaldo's contract. I suspect that there was some caveat in his contract that we were liable to pay heavy compensation costs to third parties, if we had released him early or sacked him. Thanks Mr NC Given the seriousness of his behaviour at Saints, this would normally have warranted dismissal for gross misconduct by any other employee. The club i'm guessing had their hands well and truly tied due to his contractual status and couldn't go down that route, instead they decided to farm him out to avoid any serious financial penalty we might have incurred by dismissing him. From a Professional HR perspective , I would love to get my teeth into that particular case. Would make an excellent case study.

You have to have a minimum of two years service to be eligible for redundancy pay .1 years service to submit an et1 to a tribunal for unfair dismissal .yes there isa cost if Your not successful but no cost if your successful . So 16 I'm not sure who you work for but there are some bad practices out there. Sounds like you work for such a company. Hole punch don't blame the Tories for changes to tribunals over the years . There are other factors including an Increase in frivolous and vexatious claims Etc etc .

You have

Clyney looked ****ed off when the camera panned in on the subs . I bet he was chuffed he didn't go on .

Ps , I don't think your wife's contract will be ripped up , there will be a change to her contract re hours but the main t&c's should remain in place as per her existing contract . I would have expected the council to have had dialogue with the respective unions and staff re these changes . If she refuses and resigns then there is not a redundancy situation as such as they are still offering her employment . This is potentially constructive dismissal not an unfair dismissal from the info you have posted . They may offer your wife additional hours else where to make up the reduction Viking

Fowllyd I would send you a PM about this but I'm not a full member anymore . But that's a different story Sorry to hear this has happened to your wife but it's not an unusual situation sadly . Going from 23 hours to 18.5 is generally not seen as making the job redundant , had it have been a reduction of more than 50 hours yes that is clearly a redundancy situation From what I read in your post your wife is being put on a 40 week term time contract not onto a temp contract and will take her holidays as usual , during non term time attendance . We have similar roles . Her continuous service and holiday etc will remain in tact although maybe pro rata to reflect the reduction in hours . What would be helpful for me would be to see a copy of the new contract or information she has been given so I can advise you more appropriately. I know I should do this but here is an email address you can send me further details removed nowhehasseenit@btinternet.com I hope I don't get any numpties sending me spam or abuse Regards Viking

I just turned my saints calendar to June I see its Morgan as the june pinup I see on the news that Keenan has said we will struggle next season. ******** time to remove him from the legend banner . He was never a real legend any way

New signing Charlie Austin has a clause in his Southampton contract to join Liverpool in 2016 if they make an offer Following his decision to join saints . The daily scum sources close to the player confirm this clause in his contract If this was ever true then us fans would be seething and rightly so

I listened to Mick Huknell on the radio yesterday . And he made same salient points about Qatar , which I agree with Set aside the corruption. But the World Cup has brought thousands of jobs for the poorly paid over there . If that was scrapped now it would have an impact on thousands on innocent people . What about those that lost their lives due to dodgy health and safety issues . I believe Qatar should be allowed to keep the World Cup . It shouldn't be just about the corruption all aspects should be considered

The end of FIFA as we know it , I suspect. Watch the Bank account of FIFA suddenly disappear or be significantly reduced.

Listening to a 5 live reporter moaning about 16 to 18 years not allowed to vote . Yet it will be their future , so should be allowed to vote Why doesn't he say all 8 year olds plus should be allowed to vote as it is equally their future I believe there are benefits to being a member but several of the beurocratic rules and regulations need to change along with one or to other bits of legislation

Well I for one enjoyed watching that . This forum wouldn't be the same without the usual moaning few making salient comments .

Excellent programme and tribute to a genuine brilliant person . I was at most of those games , that last game at the dell against the arse . The memory will will never fade . Only Matt could finish that way . I have to admit I didn't have a dry eye watching that programme . Poor Matt balling his eyes out in the treatment room He didn't say much about hoddle but what little he said , was enough . Thank goodness Matt chose not to go to Irene dewrey

I was hearing this earlier this evening re Clyne , but I thought it was unsubstantiated rumours . I hope Toby will still stay .

Gazza should have gone for that header

Sheer brilliance

Ps good to see le god involved

I hope the club are going to start selling red and white stripe golf balls with the club logos Awesome video
