Title: Adver News: SWINDON TOWN: Comazzi set to sue club Post by: News Monkey on Friday, July 26, 2013, 06:00:02 SWINDON TOWN: Comazzi set to sue club
ALBERTO Comazzi was employed as a consultant by Swindon Town as part of the severance package he is now taking legal action to recoup. http://www.thisisswindontownfc.co.uk/news/headlines/10573089.SWINDON_TOWN__Comazzi_set_to_sue_club/?ref=rss Title: Re: Adver News: SWINDON TOWN: Comazzi set to sue club Post by: tans on Friday, July 26, 2013, 06:14:58 Consultant of what exactly?
What a fucking joke. Title: Re: Adver News: SWINDON TOWN: Comazzi set to sue club Post by: joteddyred on Friday, July 26, 2013, 06:27:10 Laughable. What on earth was he in a position to advise us on?

I suspect this is the most telling bit: Quote However, Comazzi was not paid any of the monthly amounts after he was named in May 2012 as one of 61 individuals under investigation for match-fixing in his native Italy. I'd imagine the club dispute the compromise agreement is valid from this point on.

Wait, let me read the article for you...

Serving a 4 year ban AFAIK. Yup, banned for 4 years from June 2012. Appeal dismissed Title: Re: Adver News: SWINDON TOWN: Comazzi set to sue club Post by: Dozno9 on Friday, July 26, 2013, 06:53:21 Laughable. What on earth was he in a position to advise us on? The result of a few Italian games. Title: Re: Adver News: SWINDON TOWN: Comazzi set to sue club Post by: Bob's Orange on Friday, July 26, 2013, 06:53:54 The move is believed to have had tax incentives for both the player and the club and meant Town were scheduled to make several payments to Comazzi in a compromise agreement reached between the two parties following the termination of the defender’s contract.
So it was setup as a bit of a tax dodge for club and player. Champion. :doh: Title: Re: Adver News: SWINDON TOWN: Comazzi set to sue club Post by: Reg Smeeton on Friday, July 26, 2013, 07:25:03 Consultant of what exactly? What a fucking joke.
