  1. Umbrella Companies

    in The Sin Bin

    Posted

    I worked using an umbrella company not good experience wouldn't do it again..

    Normally you do get paid more under them however you have no entitlement to holiday pay as you are in a roundabout way self employed and not an "employee".

    I only work as a LTD company now much less hassle and your more covered.

    I suppose it all depends on what you are doing and how much paperwork you want to do.

    Is this not a bit premature? We have a manager in place.  I'm sure the Board has considered the possibility of JR leaving, but surely there's time enough for supporters  to start speculating on another manager when we know that the present incumbent has gone? For what it's worth, I don't think whoever comes in will give us a season like the one we've just enjoyed.

    No he has agreed terms with Sunderland ..

    Do you think that the club have not expected to get anything from Kenny or Johns sell on fees?I believe they did and that is why the old board inserted that into any deal , this was caused by the fact Simsa couldn't raise their initial payment. I'm not in Simsa and didn't agree with the buy out , although up till now things look to be running quite well.But will go back to my original statement and say again that ,I don't agree that the old board shout get anything from players sales.

    So if you don't agree with my opinion that's your choice , its my opinion and that's all it is :D

    They don't get anything from player sales!!!

    They just get from SMISA funds the agreed sale price earlier than anticipated which is a good thing going towards fan ownership!

    Really no point in selling as we'd be due a very nice development fee for him regardless of if he does leave at end of his contract.

    I was sure he had another two years on it, though.

    The problem with that way is the player tends to stop trying especially if a bid from a big club comes in and the wages that are on the table are substantially more.

    In a world of money grabbing, faux club badge kissers, it's rare to get genuine from the heart messages from pro footballers these days. We were blessed with having several guys in the team that saved us, who developed a real love for the club and its fans Sad that Billy isn't going to be coming back next season. Hope he gets set up soon with a good club. Definitely one of the good guys.

    Thankfully Stephen McGinn falls into this category of non money grabbing.

    He was instrumental in our survival and he had far better offers elsewhere but went with the heart rather than his agent!

    Yes I liked Hinchy.

    And you're probably right.

    No Saints goalkeeper has ever come close to Dibble for me though, he really was the best. Ridiculous he never got capped for the full national team.

    I agree should have been capped at least once although goalkeeper is the one position Scotland have always seemed to have strength in depth!

    Leighton,Thompson,Goram all competing for the jersey around that time.

    Hinchy is probably the last good solid keeper we had!
