  • 1 Abstract Purpose: This Paper Aims to Highlight and Encourage
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Leeds Beckett Repository Abstract Purpose: This paper aims to highlight and encourage consideration of the ethical and in some instances legal implications of managerial change in the EPL which often gets overlooked and sidestepped by clubs. Design/methodology/approach: Extant literature relating to managerial change is identified and discussed to provide the foundations of the discussion of whether managerial change in the EPL which is primarily focused on performance outcome, is neglecting ethical and legal issues. Findings: The loophole that exists in the Employment Rights Act (1996) allows clubs to instantly dismiss a manager and consequently not see out their notice period as agreed in their contract or the statutory notice period. Whilst legally clubs are at will to act in this manner, the instability of EPL management evident today appears to have taken away the rights of an employee. Practical implications: Greater consideration of the current managerial change practices in EPL from an ethical and legal perspective appears warranted. The incomparable rights that a player and a manger have relating to their tenure at a club seem somewhat unfair. Originality/value: Presents thought-provoking information relating to managerial change in the EPL which appears to have been overlooked in the literature to date which primarily focuses on the impact of change on performance. Keywords: Managerial Change, English Premier League, employment rights Paper type: Viewpoint 1 Introduction The apparently unique nature of professional team sports and leagues dictates that individual teams, while seeking a dominant position in a winner-takes-all scenario, require competitors to provide opposition, entertainment and commercial possibility (Williams, 2012).

  • Manchester United : Could Robin Van Persie Leave Old Trafford?
    Manchester United : Could Robin van Persie Leave Old Trafford? Author : Robert D. Cobb MANCHESTER (UK) – According to media reports, Dutch talisman Robin van Persie is unhappy at Manchester United, could he be on his way out of Old Trafford? van Persie, who left long-time adversary, Arsenal, to join United for £24 million (£22.5 million, plus an extra £1.5 million if United wins either a EPL title or UEFA crown) is reportedly unhappy with new manager David Moyes and his training methods. Known to be both injury-prone and brittle during his tenure with the Gunners, the Dutch striker helped lead United to it’s 20th EPL crown, has all but replaced Wayne Rooney as top dog at Old Trafford. The former PFA Player Of The Year scored 28 goals in 40 appearances for the Red Devils his first year under Sir Alex Ferguson at United. While this is all mild speculation and unconfirmed, if van Persie is unhappy now, just imagine how he will be when he comes to discover that Moyes is no Ferguson and that United may be on their way down as a top club, thanks to rivals Manchester City, Chelsea, Tottenham and the fore-mentioned Gunners making moves during the transfer period. While United would add former Everton midfielder Marouane Fellani and Penarol defender Guillermo Varela, Old Trafford is not the so-called “Theater Of Dreams” anymore thanks to a disgruntled Rooney wishing to move to Stamford Bridge, Ferguson gone and rival clubs closing the gap on them, could lend some credibility to van Persie’s alleged remarks about Moyes.
