Pretty sure we’ll have paid his wages , I think we actually paid him off long before but that’s just a reasonably sourced bit of gossip . If it’s a bizzie , a doctor, a footy player or a judge they’ll be suspended and paid I don’t think you can argue because they’re unconvicted so innocent . As regards insurance I can’t imagine what policy would cover that , I’m not being sarcastic but it’s his alleged actions that would cause a situation so how would that work ?
I think a club has take it on the chin and then potentially sue if a conviction occurred
Well insurance covers players not being available, potentially for criminal actions. That would be a fairly standard clause in insurance. I suspect that the insurers would sue in such an instance, if he has been paid.
Re paying him off, I have no idea. Theres a world where we just dont pay him. I would say he is very unlikely to launch a legal campaign against us where we to.
Its highly unlikely we paid anything. As has been noted, there is a reason you pay for insurance for players being unavailable. I suspect the immediate suspension cane after this would have ben cleared up.
There would likely be some sort of excess on the policy, we we may pursue later down the line.
