MmmMonsterMunch I really hope Fulham bin him off now & he ends up with nothing.
Does anyone know much about pay-offs? You'd think in this day & age that clubs would protect themselves & have pre-agreed compromise agreements that don't necessarily equate to paying up the full remainder of the contract.
Hopefully the Thai's have used their business nous on this & he hasn't ended up with much.

If there WAS such a clause in his contract it's no wonder he decided it worthwhile talking to another club.

Y21Muskrat Will now walk into the Fulham job and watch them fly...
Can't see them going for him now, tbh.
It's like going back to the one night stand and asking them to marry you when the missus finds out you've had a one night stand and kicks you out.
Kinda.
I dunno, but if I was Fulham, I wouldn't want him now.

We might have a legal case that they originally approached him while he was ours, unsettled him and so should still pay a proportion of the compo... plus he's shit so why would they want him.

No Fixed AbodeFrom Despair To Where? Can only echo most comments on here, Clarke's position was more and more untenable in the light of the Fulham nonsense
Which only goes to show how uneducated those people are about football. I was told Fulham made it public, so Clarke should bear no responsibility for it. We'd all potentially look at other jobs if it meant earning more money.

Uke Never warmed to him, too dour
SSC next, at least in a caretaker/holding role
Where's Paolo Di Canio these days?

And if we were a contract worker who could only work one client at a time, client 'A' would be well within their rights to be unhappy if after only a short time into a contract (which saw them paying a lot for materials up front), their contractor considered ditching them for client 'B'.
It’s a little more advanced but once you think about it in more detail and draw the right comparisons, it will make sense to you.
But it wasn't Clarke that made it public, which is the key here. Contract worker or not. I've done contract work before it didn't stop me seeking out another job. I just didn't tell anybody.

RoverAndOut As an outsider I have to say this decision didn't particularly surprise me. I was confused to see Clarke flirting with Fulham - an absolute basket case of a club who are in a worse position than you. Seems like it would have been a backwards step for Clarke and couldn't really understand his motivation for wanting that job. Regardless, it very rarely ends well for a manager when he's publicly courting another club whilst still employed by another.
It seems like the Fulham incident basically sealed his fate, as otherwise you seemed to be doing fairly well in terms of results and league position. It'll be interesting to see who you appoint next, as you're one of the clubs we're trying to catch, and with the right manager you could be right back into the top six.
