What that outcome will be is anybody's guess" That's brilliant. You could make a case for the exact opposite analysis. For example if D-day was the end of June as seems to have been suggested the fact that judgment was not delivered before then could've put Rovers in a position whereby performing the sainsburys contract was no longer viable - arguably preventing natural justice. Personally I wouldn't make any prediction about what the timeframe means or make any inferences from, but if you were going to surely the logic would be the longer this takes the less likely a positive outcome...? Especially as I'm sure someone reported Watola said damages would be inadequate, they want the stadium whilst giving evidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen another fan on their forum criticising the 'madness of the contract law system'. I'm not sure what he wants from a contract law regime but the one we have where it's very light touch, barely any legislation and the principle is largely 'you are free to contract on the terms which you agree upon' seems anything but mad. Not sure if his gripe is really with the system which allows parties to agree upon things like cut off dates, or with the contracting parties who seemingly didn't appreciate what they were agreeing to be bound to, or not, in certain circumstances.

There'll be no compo to appease nor will there be a slap on Sainsburys over conduct - although they may get reprimanded if they haven't acted bona fide.

I can't recall the term used but, it referred to a party deliberately dragging their feet to make sure the contract could not be completed satisfactorily by the other party. I believe this is what Rovers claimed. If that were the case, perhaps the judge might be persuaded to award some compensation to the wronged party.

BTRFTG Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Whilst Sainsbury's appear to have been 'prevarication personified' in discharging aspects of their obligation I wonder how much emphasis will be placed by the judge on what appears to be the first attempt to unilaterally vary the 'terms of the deal', namely Higgs seeking to amend in Rovers' favour liability in respect of the CIL? I've been involved in deals whereby first 'loss of trust' has been key if it establishes the party seeking variation weren't as honourable or committed as their outward intentions appeared. If Higgs was to be taken at his word and the deal fallen through should Sainsbury's not uprate their CIL contribution then reasonably one might ask whether, at that point, the intent to conclude the contract (a key component in contract law) had dissipated?

But it wasn't completely sainsburys fault Not getting the conditions they wanted then losing the appeal, Rovers won the appeal but I think that may be dodgy on the councils part (something sainsburys brought up in court) The verious jr involved again not sainsburys fault Rovers trying to shaft them on some money issues (which the gas admitted in court) again not sainsburys fault Listening to the reaction from the case it came across as rovers trying to play the victim of the evil sainsburys which the judge saw through, The the main telling thing about it was the fact it was sainsburys that took rovers to court not the other way round as pigs and co would of had us believe I think that is one of the reasons dunceford left because he knew it's going tits up and wanted out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was picking up on the 'done nothing wrong legally' comment in relation to dragging their heels. I suppose the point there is again it turns on the contract and really what it required of Sainsburys. Their delays could in the circumstances be reasonable, so no compo even if they were heel-dragging. That's why predictions aren't really worth making, I'd say even of those who went along to watch. Simply because you really need to have the contract, read it cover to cover and get the themes and the essence of 'ok what did the parties actually agree to here' because the Courts will rarely infer or imply terms. Largely, it is what it is. Explains why it's such a laborious task making judgment. If complex it's not a case of listening to what's presented in Court and getting a feeling. She may be painstakingly going through the contract, evidence of negotiations leading there, correspondence after etc. To a Rovers fan it might feel like it's taken ages but there's an unthinkable amount of work to do... And then write the damn thing, all the meanwhile juggling other cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
