Hockaday compensation

[redarmi66]

Reached agreement at 10 grand!! .... And a pie and a pint!!

 

[Dare to dream!]

Few months wages + 10 grand and more chance of getting a job than he did before...he's got lucky big time

Where did you get this info. I have searched and found no news.
Is this yet another wind up?

he must have been on peanuts if they're only paying him 10k?

[Filo]

LMA or saying negotiations between Hockaday and Leeds are still ongoing, it sounds like Leeds are after short changing him, probably paying him 1p in the pound

[LongbridgeMGRover]

£10k would probably buy him a nice little shack in the Gloucestershire backwoods. Maybe they could stretch to giving him a banjo too?

[ss1953]

Thanks for the confirmation.
You aren't the usual wind up merchant.

[Capmeister]

Ya pay peanuts, ya get monkeys! Must av been on about £40K a year!!!! Now that is cost cutting. If they got Steve Clarke I reckon that would be a good move but given what Cellino looks to want to pay, that's hardly likely to buy his shoe laces. Bless 'em.

[RoversDave]

If that is the case, there must be a few very large brown envelopes somewhere.

I hope you're not suggesting there's a possibility Cellino could be breaking the law in some capacity? 

[Glyn_Wigley]

If they've got any sense they'll go after Pulis. But that's a very big if.

[The Red Baron]

I think they'll end up with someone who is desperate for a job. A manager of decent standing like Pulis won't take it because he knows there will be too much interference from above.

[BigH]

Doesn't surprise me that Hockaday is getting a raw deal. Virtually every manager that gets bumped out of a job with a club other than a Champions League aspirant usually has to go through a tortuous period of toing and froing before they get their dues - or any form of settlement for that matter. It does, indeed, reflect a desperation among the footballing band of brothers that are ex-players, coaches, managers etc. Owners know this. The LMA will earn their corn on this one for sure.

I heard through the grapefruit today that Watford's outgoing manager Giuseppe Sannino might be in line for the job.
