Look, Scotland are royally drunk off, it did not help that he bounced over here and ran around like Kiss 2.0. They have their heels firmly dug in, will they make him wait until the new year, no, but they are playing hardball due to the amateur organisation that D4 and UR are.

I was happy with his appointment (not the way it was done) but now I have a doubt at the back of my mind.

Scotland have appointed a new forwards coach, then they demoted Dan to Video Analyst, which was not in his contract.
So he has told them he has been effectively sacked.
As Baggy said, soon, albeit the 15th has come and gone.

Sound like grounds for potential constructive dismissal claim.

It wouldn't be helpful to his constructive dismissal case.

He has already handed in his notice and his reason for leaving would to be take up a head coaching role.
I have my own tv channel, what have you got?

Being on notice period does not matter when it comes to constructive dismissal.

Starts tomorrow.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

Now that this episode has been put to bed, what about the other vacancies?

Great news, imagine he has been in constant contact anyway, but to get him at training each day is a big boost.

I wonder how much was paid and it looks like nucibolloks and the FIRFU blinked first. The SRU treasurer eyes must've been popping out of his head with the thought of paying Dan another month's wage for doing feck all. Still, good to see Dan here and the nonsense is over.

Also, just looked at Finlay's background. Is it normal for someone to be taken on in a communications role with what looks like no relevant qualification, let alone, experience in Communications? Surely, you'd be wanting a journalism type qualification or PR? No, we'll take a sales exec from Energia, with qualifications in Sports and Sports Admin, thanks. The Ulster Way, eh?
