There are plenty of employment roles that prohibit people with certain criminal records for instance. There are also already care roles that require staff to be vaccinated or lose their jobs. Whilst I'm not suggesting professional footballers in an outdoor sport should be the same, it's not exactly a massive reach. If the Govt decide to make it a requirement employment laws won't stop it, particularly now we're not required to comply with European Law. From a quick google search. if you are in employment, it is unlikely to be in your contract that you require to have a vaccine, so it would have to be added, which you could refuse to sign if you don’t agree if you are seeking employment, they can stipulate that you have a vaccine as long as they are not discriminating against someone who has a disability that means they can’t take the vaccine. the health/care sector is an example of somewhere where vaccinations can be mandatory as there is a health and safety risk. So clubs could force players if they wanted to, but if a player really didn’t want to for whatever reason, it would be an issue that would require legal mediation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at most job adverts and it states the same things , job role , responsibilities and salary ( majority of companies state salary negotiable) depending on experience, the job is not a football related job , it is a commercial manager which is more sales related generating income than football , it just happens to be at a football club I thought the advert was fine - it's concise at least and covers the key responsibilities. It could perhaps have done a bit more to outline the overall vision and expected trajectory that the board has for the club though - a job advert is about sparking interest in people who may or may not be aware of what is happening at an organisation. You are right that a great candidate for the role may actually be ambivalent about football - and certainly may not support Ayr United! I hope they manage to find someone who is stronger on leveraging and driving the digital channel. I don't know the previous incumbent but I think it's fair to assume that aspect wasn't his strength. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You also can't exclude them for choosing not to be vaccinated. There's no definition of "can't" here which holds water. Look, there is absolutely no excuse here. They're full-time, on good wages. Everyone else in the country has had to turn their houses into offices, or else struggle to pay bills on precarious furlough rules. Footballers should have been first in line to get vaccinated. It's telling that most of the teams having difficulties are the ones at the bottom end of the table. I suppose if you can't be fucked listening to what you were told to do on Saturday that's going to apply to the rest of the week as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rules were also bent and pushed to the limits to allow them back playing again when much of society was closed down.

Got to agree with that, I'm pro Vax followed every rule will do the Vax passport if need be, but it should not be forced on folk if they don't want to do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know the previous incumbent but I think it's fair to assume that aspect wasn't his strength. To be fair to the previous incumbent, my impression is that responsibility for the whole "online presence"-thing at the club has been shuffled around between different directors and employees for years. I have quite a lot of sympathy with the club on this despite having been repeatedly frustrated over the years. Did any of it (beyond the club shop) actually generate income vs. "a nice thing to have but..." Lockdown etc. obviously changed the potential for income and we have been found wanting. A new broom would be welcome and if it sweeps me away there will be no hard feelings on my part. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your highlights packages over the years have been top notch. I'd be happier if you were brought into the club as I'm sure you'd deliver a quality product. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
