So the club could have said no?
Of course, but if the manager wants to leave anyway whats the point refusing

But surely as none, I think, of our prospective managers is currently employed by another club we can speak to who we want when we want. The delay to the announcement was down to compo so the club knew he was going way before that.

I also think what he means is that we were probably contractually not obliged/allowed to go through our managerial recruitment process until the SL to Crawley deal had been officially ratified. Hence why it 'seems' that it's taken ages for us to appoint a manager whereas 8 or 9 days is probably fairly reasonable.
Exactly this. It's frustrating but just the way it is really

Whilst our manager is still contracted to us we can't speak to another manager without risk of legal action being taken by him

Imagine this was us
‘ Portsmouth FC are considering the possibility of appointing current Oxford United defender and PFA chairman John Mousinho as the clubs new manager, according to journalist Chris Wise.
The 36-year-old gained his UEFA Pro License qualification in Early 2022, meaning he is now eligible to manage a professional football club in England and his appointment would definitely be one of a kind.’

Saw Foster was reported as a done deal for them. I've lost count of the amount of done deals that have turned out to be false recently.

Indeed constructive dismissal 101. What I don't get with the whole SL thing was why the club didn't/couldn't just release a statement saying something along the lines of 'Crawley have asked permission to speak to SL re their vacancy and whilst we would like him to stay as he has expressed interest we have agreed to allow them to speak', the complete silence just seemed odd and just let all manner of rumour and disquiet occupy the void.

Exactly the same as Garner. Delays all blamed on compo.
Piss up and brewery spring to mind.

I’m sure if they were so inclined SDM/Clem/RAngus could have had off the record discussions with interested parties before Lindsey had signed his contract with Crawley without it causing any bother

What I don’t get is this. If we do eventually go for Artell, for example, who as far as we know has been interviewed, why have we continued to interview others? You’d think that once you have interviewed somebody and thought ‘he’s the one for us’ you’d actually appoint him instead of carrying on interviewing others.

Is it possible they've just slightly misread John Mousinho?
