I'd have been surprised if they did it any other way tbh.  Par for the course.

Par for the course for this club or all clubs. Think its a scummy way to let go pros at a club one of which has been with us since 2008 the other 2009.

The only major issue here, in my eyes, is that he asked Taylor to pass the phone to Jonas rather than calling Jonas separately. Informing them that their contracts would not be renewed is the job of the manager, just a shame that means the mumbling lickspittle Carver choosing the quickest and easiest way of doing so.

 

Spot on. Which was probably Carvers choice.

This, entirely.

 

It's a manager's job to do this, I've done it countless times to staff. It's not nice, but there's no way on Earth that I'd phone someone to do it. You get them in, sit them down and have the decency to do it face to face.

 

Carver might have been told to do this, which is quite right, but I can't imagine for a single moment that he was told to just ring them up and use only one phonecall to do it, and that there was no other way he was allowed to tell them. :lol:

 

The man's a fucking idiot. I hope they sack him by sending the cunt a text.

Ive seen the video and its a bit confusing, Taylor says it was unbelievable that he was asked to pass the phone over then goes on to defend Carver

 

Seemed to back track, when he realised he was talking about his mate.

He's not the manager though. He's the head coach. He has no influence over contracts.

 

Yes he does.

 

He's part of a 3-man team that identify players. Charnley, Carr and Carver. That's how it worked with Pardew, that's how it'll work now and that's how it'll work going forward. The head coach WILL have a say, maybe not the biggest say, but he'll have a say on who comes in, who goes out and who is retained.

This club.  I think most clubs would have sat down with them, explained their decision and thanked them for their efforts.

I doubt many players have been at a club for 7 years and been told their contract isn't being renewed by having a phone passed to them by their mate like :lol:

 

At the very least - if they absolutely had to tell them over the phone - try and catch them in private.

No way Alan Pardew wanted rid of Nolan & Barton. No way Carver wanted rid of these two either.

Only debate is whether phone call is adequate. Probably not- but wouldn't be surprised if it's common practice.

 

Carver completely to blame for the nonsense with the phone being passed to Jonas. What an absolute imbecile.

 

Probably only gets free calls to Ryan Taylor's network.
