You have to wonder why it wasn't sorted when Duffy suggested the contract was only valid if they made the top 4. Surely Fev spoke to him then?

Whatever is in the contract is in the contract, and that will play out. Seems to me like nonsense going on at both clubs. But I suspect Fev weren't too downhearted when Duffy didn't arrive for the first day of pre season.

Exactly what I'd say in public - although, whisper it, I have known our club to be wrong occasionally! (and yours too, of course!! )

A tribunal may adjudicate on that. If Beaumont is correct.... no problem is there???
I don't see what you're issue is here.

Not sure what laws of the game have been broken! Quite clearly states sacked for gross misconduct. That's an issue between Duffy and Fev to sort. Why "Leigh" had to be mentioned in that statement is of no consequence.

Re: Duffy & Fev legal action : Thu Nov 22, 2018 12:15 am  

I always found it a little strange to why Duffy opened up stating that he 'would love to coach Leigh' during the 8's.

Was it a strange thing to say, or was it simply 'My contract is null and void and I would love to coach a team for whom I have a big association with' ?

Fev have stated that they now have a vacancy and I doubt anything will come of it.

Leigh have never announced signing Duffs so we've done nothing wrong all rumours and hearsay , no doubt he's going to be or next coach though for once our silence has been to our advantage

Perhaps due to an illegal approach?

Possibly. But given Leigh where/are under special measurements ie no expenditure. That's going to be very difficult to prove.
