Quote WRE="WRE"not stiring an argument but using your employment law knowledge can you explain to me (someone who knows f all0 why they would exactly and on what grounds and explain what possible mitigating circumstances there could be for cas to win a case and vise versa! i am interested to know!'"
In simple terms, somebody is at fault!.
It is either the player (s)
The Agent
The club (cas)
The RFL
The only sure fire way you could cancel the contract would be if it’s the player (s) fault. If so then it ends there.
There would be a chance you could cancel the contract if it was the agents fault. If so the player would more than likely commence court action against the agent.
If it is the RFL's fault, then you would not be able to cancel the contract, as the player (s) have signed in good faith and have done nothing wrong. In this case, Cas could bring about an action against the RFL.
If it is a mistake from Cas, then the contracts must be honoured, even if it meant the player (s) could not actual play for you. The only way round this would be to pay the player (s) off, but they would most likely not accept this unless they had another contract to take up somewhere else.
If they do have other options, then cas (if it is there mistake) would probably just pay the difference, if there was one.
Not a legal expert, but my better half works in the industry and that is she sees it!
