So McDermott has gone from having a contract for life that left GH unable to sack him to agreeing to sign one that provides a chance to be sacked. Meanwhile GH offered a contract that allows the coach to potentially win only 9 of the 23 regular season games.

Some people need to stop listening to the voices in their head.

It's because only the realists & true fans care about being successful....whilst the management, staff and players are only interested in fleecing the stupid rose tinted naive gullible element of the fan base out of their cash with no desire to win things.

But that win-loss record would be an improvement on last season

How do you know the terms of his contract please?

I'd like to ask the same question by addressing the CEO himself but you can't believe a word he says.

The same way the guy down the street who sellotapes newspaper to his windows knows that aliens exist.

Absolute minimum is top 4, or top 6 and the CC trophy (loosing the final doesn't suffice) if he can't do it we need to find a coaching staff who can.

Haha!

So the terms of his contract state he should only lose a maximum of 59% of games and all is fine?

Sounds like a good deal - so long as you have a 40% win record, you are moving forward (!)

We'll be fine. McDermott mis-read his previous contract & thought he could be sacked if he won more than four in any 10 games.

I would like a look at Macs win percentage, I would be willing to bet it is close to the worst of any coach we have had in SL.

He is also going into his 7th season. I have never seen a coach last as long in 30 years of watching the club.

Why do you think he should respond to you?
You're forever calling him a liar.
The arrogance of some folk on here beggars belief.

He's actually correct about the new contract, just saying. He now can be sacked without compensation due to the clause.

In that case Segs has proper screwed him over, no wonder he's ed off - he can see his sacking looming on the horizon!
