Speaking as someone who was sacked after tendering his resignation, all I can say in my situation is, my employer was so incensed on receiving my resignation letter, he actually sent me a dismissal letter.
His reasoning behind this was, he no longer had to pay me the holiday pay I had accrued.
The small claims court thought otherwise.
Don't get me wrong, I'm sure Cas have taken greater guidance than my former employer, & I wasn't on a long term contract, but it can happen.

Phil Clarke needs lose his position on Sky Sports due to conflict of interest.

| Quote: Slugger McBatt "And you know that how?
Also, the PA, the company secretary, the cleaner and the milkman are not bosses. As a director and shareholder, Clarke is. It's also called corporate responsibility, and hypocrisy given his status within the media side of the game. He has a direct financial stake in the success of the Solomona deal, which is different to that of an employee.'"
I dont. But neither do you and the rest of rlfans who are thirsty for his blood and that hasnt stopped you has it?

Please can you explain the "conflicts of interest" that arise from being a TV commentator and a Director/Shareholder in a limited company

That's the one thing I agree with you on. Commentating on a game has nothing to do with being a players agent.

His company represents certain players who play in Super League, he can have a material effect on their perceived value by actively highlighting (on the games biggest platform no less) their strengths and influence on the game and underplaying any errors whilst simultaneously doing vice versa to players not represented who his players could replace.
It's really not a big leap.
On the Steve Diamond situation, am I right in my understanding that Denny Solomona is now retired from Rugby League having resigned and been sacked? Why not go the whole hog and kill off the character Denny and have him replaced by his identical twin brother Benny

Indeed. Thats exactly how clubs measure a certain players market value/wage, by Phil Clarkes commentary.

Indeed. No worse than coaches being on Sky talking about players

Radio Humberside seemed to think so with regards to Craig Murdoch

But then did commentary for BBC Five live and Radio Yorkshire. Maybe radio humberside just wanted to get rid which is a strange one as he always came across well on the radio

Except that coaches don't stand to benefit financially if a player moves to a new club.

On par with measuring two clubs value by comparing their websites.

You can't really gauge the atmosphere by watching it at home though. Get yourself down't lane Tigers Vs Centurions Friday night 10th Feb.
