Newton 0 Posted August 3, 2014 Are we still paying Houhtons wages at Premier rates ?Everyone one took a 50% pay cut when we were relegated but bearing in mind we were still in the Prem when he was sacked, are we now paying the final year of his contract at the Prem level ?If so this would explain 2 things:-Why the Board were hanging on to him for grim death, because if he was sacked after the season finished his pay off would reflect the league we were still inHe has not applied for any jobs in the champs, if we continued to pay him each month any job below prem level would mean a massive paycut as our payments would ceaseAny one know what the situation is or wether we agreed a termination settlement with the man ?

We also trousered all the NI payments made and have kept some of his personal effects which were auctioned off on Ebay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
