Former loan star successful in his efforts to land promotion bonus
Marcel Seip has been awarded more than £70,000 in damages following a bonus dispute with Blackpool.
Seip played seven times for the Seasiders whilst on loan from Plymouth during the 2009/10 campaign, during which they won promotion to the Premier League.
The Dutchman also scored twice during his spell with the club, which ran from September to December 2009, and has now successfully contended that he was entitled to a promotion bonus.
Blackpool were awarded £5.15million following their successful campaign but excluded loan players who had left the club from their bonus distribution after interpreting contracts differently.
Seip has won his case and been awarded £72,206 plus legal costs and interest.
The club were involved in another dispute with captain Charlie Adam last season.
Adam claimed he was not paid a bonus due for avoiding relegation - also in the season they won promotion.
