Getting sacked is different to redundancy

[Sammy Spireite]

It’s redundancy

I heard a girl in the club shop say something about getting sacked and having to look for another job.

I'm informed redundancy and 1,800 ST's sold so far

She served me this morning bet she was told late on 🤐🤐

We've just had 3 consecutive god awful seasons. The club ought to realise that to refresh the disillusioned and sell STs they need to make some signings that say "hey look, we really intend going places". The fact Shez kept us up last season playing some pretty average football will not whet lots of appetites for next season imo

4 consecutive seasons, please

1800 isn't bad, more than I expected, should top 2k with a few quick stellar signings 😂

Or put another way based on those figures we will have lost around 1000 ST holders making Beans comment that we were on course to sell the same as last year total guff and the price rise look even more ridiculous!

True but 2k is decent in the circumstances

Are they still doing the (aged) freebies this year then?

How many of the 1,800 are attributed to sponsorship packages?

Carson being handed free reign has done similar damage to the clubs fan base as what Haslam did to the yellow stains fan base.

Sacked isn’t being made redundant

The result is the same.

Other than the pay off, the notice period and the better future job prospects if you are made redundant and not sacked.

You still don't have a job which would be the clear and obvious overriding concern in that situation.

How many ST were sold for the last season at saltergate?

[The Earl of Chesterfield]

Are we being told there's a correlation between low ST sales and redundancies?

Because given the owner's record - selling players when crowds were on the up yet backing managers when falling - I think it's long been established no such link exists.

Infact 'Deepthroat' suggests there's an ongoing examination of expenses which could, quite possibly, see more exits.

So whilst we should definitely have sympathy for ordinary employees being made redundant perhaps the question ought to be why the wage bill has been so high for so long?


Oh, and by the way; if I were a volunteer - so desperately needed for a game watched by barely a thousand people I was forced to miss a popular protest - I'd be having a long, hard look at my role in light of others losing their jobs...

Although redundancy usually means a consultation period etc
