Not sure that's so. One would hope that any decent group of human beings would come to the same conclusion. I suspect that in retrospect those in charge of Newport County when the Hillier affair occurred probably wish they had been far wiser and compassionate.
The funny thing was the club had a solicitor at the time. Countylaw as he liked to style himself. Leaving aside the utterly lacking compassion, the legal position our club took was unsustainable. To sack a person who is sick without going through proper procedure is undefendable.
In short it was an unwinnable case.
