Forget about certain Welsh wingers, this is the one legal process that I would like full disclosure on.

Not necessarily. Might mean he went away with something, and he wants everyone to think he got the better deal.

Valid point.  Helps perpetuate the view that he's not a man to cross.  Not a bad thing if you're about to put yourself back in the job market.

He obviously thinks he got the best deal.

Not surprising really, Villa's dealings at tribunals have not been covered in glory, the management seemingly have little idea in that department.

Be interesting to see how each side spins this one.

This is very true.  As a fan of the job MON was doing at the club I am just as pissed of as anyone else with the timing of what happened, but some take it a step further with the conspiracy theories about trying to sabotage our season.  Now I'm sure they genuinely believe this, but assumption becomes fact when tainted with the anger for the man involved.
It might be easier to give the man the benefit of the doubt had he not done something as bad at the end of his reign at Norwich.

At least it's now concluded, but I doubt we'll be hearing any details of it.

Yep, but he thanked his Lawyers - he must have got what he wanted or at least a compromise that pays his fees and leaves him with a wodge of cash.

Shafts us and gets his pound of flesh as well. That must be some legal team - no wonder he bigs them up. Bastard.

If his comments today are anything like his post match analysis of how we after another dull game played "scintillating football" and "a terrific performance", my guess is his compensation amounts to his bus fare and just enough coins to buy half an apple.

Rightly or wrongly I will never forgive him for the way he left - but I think we deserve to know how much, if any, he walked away with.

I wish.
I'm sure his main achievement is to have gotten it out of the way so he can now talk freely again to boost his position in the jobs market. I'm sure he'll start appearing in the various media outlets again, in his new resurrected form

Interesting that thirty pieces of silver was enough to make him sling his hook.

He's already a rich man. If he was really hurt at the bottle job jibes or felt that the circumstances of his departure amounted to constructive dismissal, he'd have wanted that on record.

Why, doesn't make an iota of difference to his walk out, the damage he did then and subsequently.

Its now sorted, Randy and Faulkner have no excuses, we might even see General K again, who knows, its time to start the changes, post Mon and quickly.

I don't suppose we will find out the complete outcome of the tribunal and who gets what. There is bound to be a confidentuality aggreement in place.

No doubt it won't stop the speculation.
