Norville Rodgers Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Can see the boards point though. Irl, i think Rafa would be asked to resign if he applied to join Arsenal. Nice touch though, being asked to resign, rather than just being fired. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan,,, Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I got it when I applied for the Sevilla job. But it was only after the options for the media were rubbish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRJ Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I reckon if you did resign you would of got the job After all, who wants to pay millions(maybe) of compensation when they could get one on a free Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NepentheZ Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I don't know if you'd get the job for sure or not, but you wont always get sacked if you don't resign. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

County Kenny Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I had the same thing when I applied for a job abroad after the Coventry board told me they weren't renewing my contract. I got the impression that I would've gotten away with it if I hadn't spoken to the media about the application. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortress27 Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I applied for the arsenal job too. When the press asked at first i said i was interested. Then i was asked to resign from the team (Juventus) Then i did it again but lied to the press. Juve board never found out and I was safe...when i didnt get the job lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
philly_flyer10 Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I think its daft you cant apply to manage a better team without the team threatening to sack you. How would they know if you applied 100% of the time? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
County Kenny Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 It happens in real life though: Gary Megson was sacked by Stockport because he'd applied for the job at Wigan. The Stockport board were looking for an excuse to sack him, but maybe Liverpool were looking for an excuse to get shot of the OP too! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan,,, Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I think you should get the option to make the application public or private(so no one knows). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
