Take Over

So I get what the employer is obligated to, the 12 months salary.

But what about the employee, if PP resigned, what's his obligations? To work a 12 month notice period? If so, that's never gonna happen at a football club is it, so gardening leave at best?

So, to a layman, that seems an odd contract from the employer side?

I doubt that anyone on here knows the finer details of Parkinson's contract, its just speculation.

Whether it has been reported as being a 12 month rolling contract or not, whether it has a defined notice period or not, and whether it has a 12 month notice period, a 3 month notice period or a 1 month notice period no one on here will know the exact detail, it could be a bespoke non standard contract we just don't know - the only people who know are Parkinson, the club, and now FV.

You imagine wrongly then.

In contracts of employment either party can give notice to terminate at any point (as per the notice period stated in the contract) but the notice period in rolling contracts are set as the same length as that of the contract. (for example a 6 months rolling contract - 6 months notice period, or a 2 year rolling contract - 2 year notice period).

So even if you had a yearly performance review - and both sides even amicably decided to terminate the contract, it still has a further year to run in the case of Phil Parkinson's contract.

No doubt the employer could pay up the 52 weeks before the year is out (or come to some agreeable deferment) but the bottom line is that the employee/Parkinson will receive a years pay from the time he receives notice to terminate from his employer/BWFC.

I'm assuming you have seen Parkinson's contract ?

You may be right, but:

What you are describing is a 'normal' contract with a 12 month notice period.

Many years ago my father worked as an electrical contractor down at Windsor Safari Park, on a six month rolling contract.the 6 month periods ran 1 Jan to 30 Jun & 1 Jul to 31 Dec. The trigger dates were 31st March, and 30th Sept, these were the 2 dates that, unless declined by either party, the next 6 months automatically applied.

Therefore on the 1st of April, he had essentially a 9 month contract, and on 29th Sept, a 3 month one.

There is no such thing as a 'standard' rolling contract, everyone, myself included, are guessing what is meant by the 12 month rolling contract in this case.

Thanks.

Windsor Safari Park shut in 1992 and most things have moved on since then.

Yes I am describing a normal contract with (in this case) a 12 months notice period - and this is why they are described as 'rolling' contracts and not 'fixed term' contracts.

I've not seen Parkinson's contract, I can't prove that I'm correct it what I'm saying in respect of Parky but I suspect I am.

I even suspect you think I am too.

Apart from the fact that ED was ready to bankroll the huge (by the standards of the day) salaries required to bring in these top players.

What he saved in transfer fees he spent on wages and he had the backing to do it which was a great 

 

You don't know what you are talking about.

In the 2001/02 season Bolton's first in The Premier League under Sam, we had a net transfer spend of less than £2 million and a wage bill of £18.4 million.This was the lowest wage bill in the division, so even though Djorkaeff and Bobic were signed, every other club in the division paid bigger wages.

By comparision, Fulham and Blackburn who we were promoted with had wage bills of £30.9 million and £29.7 million.They had proper sugar daddies, we didn't.Fulham's net transfer spend that season was over £31 million, Blackburn's over £9 million.

Charlton who paid the 2nd lowest wages in wages in the league of £21.5 million, had a net transfer spend of £8.5 million.

I give those figures because i think you need to be educated.It seems you think Eddie Davies was bankrolling a place in the Premier League, he definitely wasn't.We were there and survived because Allardyce was a great manager.

Exactly, boring as fuck people citing employment law. At the end of the day they could have agreed anything and defined a rolling contract however they liked

Top post 👍

Agreed, skill creates things which on the surface appear to be luck.

Ultimately, the lack of money for wages and transfers to take Bolton to the next level were the reason Sam departed.

Ironic that a couple of seasons after they were throwing money at trying to stay up.

If Parky resigns he has to pay up 12 months (unless club waiver it)

if another club want him they pay 12 months compo to us

if we sack him we pay him 12 months wages

We can serve him his notice now and he would have to work and we pay him for 12 months

Same if he served his notice 

That’s standard rolling contract terms although he may have different clauses in there.

Where's this from?

Last I heard, LA wasn't a licensed agent anymore and RM was represented by World In Motion, a reputable FIFA licensed agency.

Fcuk off with your facts

Even if he isn’t the official agent it’s not a huge leap of faith to work out he’s mates with parish and he’s probably helped BWFC like he has done in the past

If normal processes apply, Wycombe match tickets should be on sale to away season ticket holders by Sunday 14th July, ST holders Monday 15th. That's prity much a week away. Due to the on going takeover I'm hoping we can use last season's CRN's to order tickets.... Or is it a case they can't sell the tickets until they know the game will be going ahead?

I'm hoping there's news on Monday because the longer this goes on the more worrying it's becoming! There's loads of us already shelled out for travel....

 

I'm getting fed up of flushing money down the toilet in the expectation things will be sorted ! I've heard ST prices are already agreed, just awaiting takeover to move forward for it to be published, I hope away ticket sales have been thought about too, this week looks like being a mad dash! & still without a playing squad
