| Quote: Alan "That just puts Fev at the back of a lengthening queue of those taking/threatening legal action! I notice one Swinton fan, on the Rovers' forum, has pointed out that Fev tempted him away from Swinton, in similar circumstances! Presumably JD can plead insanity - opting to join a team with no players, or money!
He may have jumped into a fire but, by most accounts, the launch site was becoming a frying pan.

Agreed, I thought Duffy had the option of a '1 year contract extension' which was on the premise that Fev made the top 4 last season....

| Terrible statement. No process of dismissal shown.

Don't see an issue. It's either broken the laws of the game or not.
A tribunal may adjudicate on that. If Beaumont is correct.... no problem is there???
I don't see what you're issue is here.

Agreed.
Someone has got it wrong and we can rely on the RFL to sort it out!

He didn't extend it after failing to make the top 4. The 2 year extension was announced in April, when Fev were riding high in 2nd place having already won at Leigh, and at a time when Leigh had a caretaker coach, it may even have been that MC had one eye on the situation at Leigh when extending Duffy's contract.

But was there a clause, stating that the extension depended on a top four finish? (with the associated financial rewards)

yes there was, according to an interview with Duffy shortly before the end of the Shield campaign. Whether that clause was one-way or not (ie did Duffy have an opt-out clause as well as Fev if the top 4 wasn't achieved) I have no idea.

Isn't that always the case? Time to trot out one of my favourite Blackadder quotes again...
Captain Darling: So you see, Blackadder, Field Marshall Haig is most anxious to eliminate all these German spies.
General Melchett: Filthy hun weasels, fighting their dirty underhand war!
Captain Darling: And fortunately, one of our spies...
General Melchett: Splendid fellows, brave heroes risking life and limb for Blighty!

GFB,
Since you keep asking about it on the different forums the anouncement was herehttps://www.featherstonerovers.co.uk/news/duffy-agrees-new-deal-GeFdjrl, but like you I wasn't party to the actual contract details so have no idea what clauses were included (i.e. it could have said only valid if making the top 4 or it is at Fev's discression if not making the top 4, etc.).
However like you I don't think anything will come of any legal action.

| 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.
