How anyone can say Morton are at fault is beyond me.

The only possible complaint anyone can have is giving him just a one-year deal without compensation beyond the minimum written into it. But given that JJ was given a two-year deal and has started terribly, that's a hindsight call at best. In terms of Ray's departure, and the recriminations after, Morton did nothing wrong and an awful lot right.

'Greenock Morton Football Club notes and welcomes the SPFL Disciplinary Hearing’s Decision and the comprehensive reasoning provided.

 

The issue of compensation to our club still hasn’t been addressed by Falkirk, therefore we will continue to pursue all routes to receive meaningful compensation, following this decision.

 

We won’t be available for any further comments at this time'

There's the bit from Margaret Lang to Crawford:

 

'Margaret Lang had indicated to him that she understood the compensation clause had been removed from his contract.'

 

So perhaps Morton wanted the specific contract clause but the snake wanted it out before signing.

Doesn't the verdict statement say "compensation wasn't sought" or similar? The club one seems to suggest they felt it should have been addressed.

The rule breaches reported by Morton and just ruled upon by the league are separate from club-to-club compensation claims.

Which would tie in with Raymond's seeming misapprehension that the club "wouldn't stand in his way."

 

I know we're a bit tinpot but did he really think the absence of a release clause meant we'd be tearfully waving him off at Cartsdyke to a divisional rival?

60k a year for someone without a job for 8 months and who made a right roaring James Hunt of his previous job wants to leaves after less than 90 days in his new position despite being backed to the hilt by his chairman.  Greedy , greedy bastard.  Has a flat in Glasgow too , so no great commute either.  Hope all chairmen/women read the tribunal findings and consider his actions when he gets punted by Falkirk.
