Robson urged to settle case at tribunal

BOBBY ROBSON has been urged to take his settlement dispute with Newcastle to a managers’ arbitration tribunal - but the matter could still end up in the High Court.

The former England boss was sacked at St James’ Park four matches into the season buthas not reached an agreement over the remainder of his contract.

Most Premiership managers will settle with clubs through an independent mediator, with the case referred to a managers’ arbitration tribunal if there is no settlement in 42 days.
