		<description>The tribunal basically came down to wording in Keegan&#039;s contract, it saying about him being in charge of training, motivating etc as well as reporting to a DOF is the clubs way of saying that he didn&#039;t have the final say on transfers, as most continental clubs that have a DOF don&#039;t have the manager having final say on transfers.

Keegan&#039;s argument was that in another paragraph in his contract it says he would be expected to carry out duties of what most other Premiership managers do, which he says includes buying players.

That&#039;s basically what it all came down to, wording in his contract.

I&#039;ve got to say I was expecting a major scandal out of all of this, how they had been on each others backs for months, how Keegan wanted the likes of Henry, Lampard etc and how Wise had forced all of the players that came in that Summer on him and he just couldn&#039;t take any more after fighting it for months.

The truth turned out to be it was all over one loan signing that the club didn&#039;t care if he played or not, Keegan may have proven his contract was breached so he could put in a claim for constructive dismissal but where was the fight from him? He&#039;s not the first manager who would have been leaned on by the board to take a player and he won&#039;t be the last, Sir Bobby didn&#039;t walk out when Shepherd brought in Stephen Carr, Souness didn&#039;t walk out when Shepherd brought in Luque instead of Boa Morte, Mourinho didn&#039;t walk when Arnesen brought in Shevchenko and Redknapp didn&#039;t walk at Portsmouth when they brought in Nugent.

Keegan may have proven that he was allowed to walk as they had breached his contract but I would have preferred him to be more flexible and to tough it out like the list of managers I&#039;ve given when they&#039;ve been in the same situation, that list is just off the top of my head too.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s a paltry amount to WIN really, compared to what he wanted, so i&#039;m glad.

If that makes me a knob, boo-hoo, i suppose i expected the typical narrow-minded abuse from people whom are bitter and still feel like that even though their messiah won.</description>

		<description>Yes Clint I was forewarned there were a few nobs on here!!

1 million we paid in wages Tino which probably went to some Greasy South American Agents! 

Personally i&#039;d love to see an official investigation into dealings like that and prosecutions as required.</description>

		<description>Sounds about right, that&#039;s what i thought might be the final outcome.

Now jog on loser.

If kk had properly won he would have got far more than £2m, so it was obviously a very close call &amp; the tribunal thought they had to award something.

kk take your £2m and, bye.</description>
