Quote: Big Dave T "Its actually fairly straight forward to do as long as the club and the player sit down and agree jointly the objevtives/criteria for what would be classed as performing. The major issue which i think you were hinting at was the accurate measurement of the objectives/criteria. In the professional world a measure could be hitting 90% of milestones on a project or delivering ontime/on budget. In a professional sport the measures would be less black and white. Achieve a performance rating averaging 7 or above per 8 match period would be a measure but the subjectivity of where it would come from would be the issue.'"
Too much objectivity, too many external factors that could be influencing things. I'm sure if it was easy to sack a sporstman for lack of performance then the cash rich premiership football clubs would have been doing it for years instead of paying £ millions to garbage.
Horne could just turn around and say that his boss is rubbish and any case would fall flat on it's face
