Unfortunately, Sheens is in a position of strength here. We've all been told that Sheens did not have KPI's to meet so effectively he can't be dismissed for doing his job poorly evidence-wise.
In industry if you are asked to take a lesser role in a company then obviously they are looking to get rid of you because you failed to meet your KPI's. Most people would refuse this option because of less pay offered and would probably accept a "redundancy". In Sheens case, there's no way of proving a redundancy as we need a football coach.
Either way, he wins. Pay out the full amount or accept that he has a strong case of unfair dismissal and pay further penalties.
Don't forget, it's not his fault that they offered him another long term contract. Which he duly signed.

Well said that man.
We should've said that season 2013 would be Tim Sheens last at the club and conducted a proper search and transition with a new coach. Like Souths did with Johnny Lang. The way it went down was too acrimonious for a coach that won us our first comp. As always with wests tigers there must be blood when we don't like something.
Not perfect but better than the situation we are finding ourselves in now.
