Saint_lambden Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Needs to be replaced quickly then if he's in charge of legal matters!!
VectisSaint Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Liverpool? Spurs? Responsible for the Toby contract. ****ed up?
S-Clarke Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 I imagine he wanted to manage the finances in the Champions League. I think there's a special theme you can get for Excel 2013 if you are a CL club. That was what did it.
BigShadow Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Obviously invested all of the clubs money in Greek Bonds.
OldNick Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Ooops that sounds as if somebody has dropped a bollock, if the Toby thing fizzles out and he goes to Spurs without much trouble then we know where it went wrong
mrfahaji Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Damn, I actually knew we were getting a new CFO, could have been an ITK claim!
VectisSaint Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Ooops that sounds as if somebody has dropped a bollock, if the Toby thing fizzles out and he goes to Spurs without much trouble then we know where it went wrong Spurs only need to check out Linkedin to see that he is available immediately: https://www.linkedin.com/pub/david-bence/30/a62/927
The9 Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 "he had been responsible for the club’s finance, IT, human resources and legal teams" Hmmmmmm...
VectisSaint Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 "he had been responsible for the club’s finance, IT, human resources and legal teams" Hmmmmmm... Fazackerly.
mrfahaji Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Just to follow up on my post from earlier, I knew that the CFO "had left" on June 24th. If he has indeed “dropped a b0ll0ck” regarding the Toby deal/contract, then Southampton have known about it for a while, it hasn’t come to light over the last few days. Spurs are such parasites.

bilbot79 Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 I would say he didn't read Toby's contract properly and the timing/buy out clause thing only came to light when Les said "Here, Let me have a look at that"
The9 Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 I would say he didn't read Toby's contract properly and the timing/buy out clause thing only came to light when Les said "Here, Let me have a look at that" Could be anything though, even if it's directly related to that situation (and there's no guarantee it was, though the timing is interesting), it could be that the text was poorly worded and unfavourable for Saints, that there was ambiguity, that the contract didn't represent the agreement management had decided on, or any number of other things.
Faz Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 I would say he didn't read Toby's contract properly and the timing/buy out clause thing only came to light when Les said "Here, Let me have a look at that" How on earth do you reach that conclusion from the available evidence?
bilbot79 Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 How on earth do you reach that conclusion from the available evidence? By speculation
mcjwills Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 How on earth do you reach that conclusion from the available evidence? We are Internet Warriors int we, we makes it up as we go along [emoji2]
pluto Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Bigger staff turnover than when cortese was here. he had at least four marketing directors and three ticket office managers
Bucks Saint Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 By speculation You will never get far doing that on here.
bilbot79 Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Well we don't really postulate hard facts here do we? There is little evidence available so I say what I think the reason might be. Big change in our position on toby and then he leaves. Coincidence? I think not
Faz Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Well we don't really postulate hard facts here do we? There is little evidence available so I say what I think the reason might be. Big change in our position on toby and then he leaves. Coincidence? I think not It's a Monday and he leaves. Coincidence? Shuhoorly not... Smiley face thingy
bilbot79 Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Every theory ever was unproven before it was proven.....shuhoorly?
VectisSaint Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Every theory ever was unproven before it was proven.....shuhoorly? Its really more of an hypothesis than a theory.
bilbot79 Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Its really more of an hypothesis than a theory. so be it Einstein
Viking Warrior Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 Pure speculation on my behalf , but could Davud Bence actually be either Guan or King Billy hence the reason we haven't heard from them for several days . As I said pure speculation on my behalf

Saint_clark Posted 6 July, 2015 Posted 6 July, 2015 I'd wager he just wasn't very good at his job, no specific reason, no need for conspiracy theories.
sotonist Posted 7 July, 2015 Posted 7 July, 2015 Pure speculation on my behalf , but could Davud Bence actually be either Guan or King Billy hence the reason we haven't heard from them for several days . As I said pure speculation on my behalf If so, I would have expected more ITK info about lions and wifelets between October 2012 and April 2014.
trousers Posted 7 July, 2015 Posted 7 July, 2015 I'd wager he just wasn't very good at his job, no specific reason, no need for conspiracy theories. If one of the things he "wasn't very good at" was insuring that any 'option to buy' clause in loanee contracts was watertight, then the Toby situation could be the straw that broke the camel's back and thus directly related to his departure. All conjecture, of course, but an entirely plausible (conspiracy) theory nonetheless.
Deano6 Posted 7 July, 2015 Posted 7 July, 2015 Would be strange for a Chief Financial Officer, an accountant by training, was left responsible for Legal wording in a contract.
maysie Posted 7 July, 2015 Posted 7 July, 2015 Would be strange for a Chief Financial Officer, an accountant by training, was left responsible for Legal wording in a contract. Yep, quite. If Saints don't have their own legal councel I'd assume they'd pay a law firm to approve the contracts etc.. Unless it is just an area under his directorship and the buck has stopped with the main man and it is actually some 3rd party law forms fault. Of course, I'm just speculating, more likely it is just a coincidence and he could be leaving for a number of reasons...
Saint Benali Posted 8 July, 2015 Posted 8 July, 2015 Heard down the pub he was sacked due to messing up the Toby contract. The guy who told me that works in administration there.
Window Cleaner Posted 8 July, 2015 Posted 8 July, 2015 Heard down the pub he was sacked due to messing up the Toby contract. The guy who told me that works in administration there. Amazing what people down pubs are willing to say, perhaps it's a case of in vino veritas.

Of course, I'm just speculating, more likely it is just a coincidence and he could be leaving for a number of reasons... he may have been responsible for specifying the contract and liaising with the solicitors. in my experience solicitors these days rarely understand the commercial ramifications of anything other than an off the shelf product, so they have to be spoon fed everything and you need to double and triple check that what they have drafted produces the expected outcome. that said, I would have expected our in house solicitor (http://solicitors.lawsociety.org.uk/person/21990/karenjit-kaur-dhaliwal) to be involved and culpable rather than the CFO
rooney Posted 8 July, 2015 Posted 8 July, 2015 Heard down the pub he was sacked due to messing up the Toby contract. The guy who told me that works in administration there. Or maybe losing the Sunseeker Sponsorship perhaps?
Colinjb Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 copied from the toby thread I was more specifically referring to the 'grass.....'
pluto Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 commercial revenue and lack of it is over his year in the job i suspect is why he's been shown the door.
Fan The Flames Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 I heard down the pub that he was caught rubbing his cock on he mouthpiece of Ralph Kruegers phone, the bloke that told me is a cleaner at St Mary's.
Katalinic Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 commercial revenue and lack of it is over his year in the job i suspect is why he's been shown the door. Generation of revenue is the domain of the CCO not the CFO.
buctootim Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 I heard down the pub that he was caught rubbing his cock on he mouthpiece of Ralph Kruegers phone, the bloke that told me is a cleaner at St Mary's. Who was Ralph making the call to?
S-Clarke Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 commercial revenue and lack of it is over his year in the job i suspect is why he's been shown the door. Maybe he was let go because he wasn't happy with the ticketing strategy?
Smirking_Saint Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 he had at least four marketing directors and three ticket office managers Its no wonder he got rid of a few then, too many cooks and all that
