Certified Legendary Thread Brett Burton has been sacked and other great things

Remove this Banner Ad

Paywalled article on Adelaide Now, we’ve reached settlement with Burton after he threatened legal action.

What a ******* joke.

The blokes who got it to this have to go, how could they possibly have given him positive feedback and reviews.

Fagan, Chapman, Roo, the lot of useless numpties.
Short tibits from the Article. gives the general Picture add to the end from the Crows “It would be inappropriate for us to discuss these confidential matters involving those who no longer work at the club.”

Adelaide has this week closed the book on its post-season clean-out by settling with outgoing football manager Brett Burton after he argued unfair dismissal and reputational damage over his sacking.

Burton took legal action and was prepare to go further before the two parties agreed on his payout .

It is understood that Pyke and Camporeale’s contracts were paid out in part but Burton, who was on staff at West Lakes, was angered at the reasons for his sacking and the way it was communicated and challenged the club’s initial payout offer.

Clearly if the review didn’t happen Burton would still be in the job.

Doesn’t give much confidence in our internal decision makers.

Can we have an external review every year, just to check there isn’t a hidden cancer growing?

When a club refuses to put their Head of Football in front of the media .... of course there’s a problem

I’m actually a supporter of Fagan & co .... can’t fault the decision making in the last 2 months ..... and no Manager in business hasn’t made an error of judgement .... as long as there’s not a pattern of behaviour

Interesting .... i gather you’re correct re Burton ... and also Management haven’t criticised his performance .... but instead saying the decks needed to be cleared

IMO surely you would have known this prior to the review ..... but think you were correct in holding Burton .. which would have resulted in yet another year of discontent

Recruitment, promotion, defending, incorrectly evaluating performance, there’s more than problem here

I can imagine the first bit of evidence Burtons team would have produced, Chapman one week prior to the review stating how awesome Burton was.

Good to put that guys behind us and move forward.

There are now no lingering issues with Brett Burton's tenure

They kept pushing the "in time" narrative with him. Looked like they knew he wasn't doing very well, but they'd backed him in so long they just kept hoping he'd eventually get his act together so they wouldn't have to do what they did.

Still haven't been asked by the media how the heck can they spend so long hyping and promoting a guy, only for an outside review to find he's a significant problem. They're spinning it as "the external review matched up with our internal one", but if that was the case and they had any inkling they were going to move Burton on (and Campo) they'd have already started sounding out people to replace him and it wouldn't have taken 3 months to find a new HoF.

What I heard 4th hand was that he did have good performance reviews and was being supported.

I look forward to seeing where he ends up.

It won't be in SA!
 
How can you preform on the field when off it is a shambles, I feel for the one chasing the pigskin being asked for maximum effort by people that are so incompetent, our head of football has a big job ahead and if things turn around this would be the first person to look at

Often think that he was promoted to role that was far above his current skill set
 
Those who appointed Burton need to fall on their swords. fu** Chapman, Fagan, Roo and anyone else involved in hiring this douchebag.

Especially Chapman. So many ****ing disasters under this dud.
