I think PV has the right to decide how he wants to manage his players. If Sean wasn't talking to players the way Vieira wants, then that is his prerogative

Furthermore, had Vieira not followed the club's disciplinary code, then Derry may have a case for wrongful dismissal. But this is further speculation, excuse me...

Yes, you are probably right, soon they will have their lawyers for team talks

Correct.

The thing is we don't know whether this is Derry's first offence? It is entirely possible that he had been warned previously about his behaviour.

It is also unclear what the offence is yelling at someone may earn you a written warning, using racist or threatening language will get you fired.

It is also possible that Derry was offered a way out as the simplest way for both him and the club to save face e.g. you resign and we will pay you X.

I can imagine that Parish would prefer someone to go quietly rather than a messy PR scandal like Ian Mooney.

All speculation until someone talks.

One more point

Well he wasn't competing against squads worth 2 billion was he. Dumb reply.
