I quite agree maybe marshalls should have asked what the guys working for them would take instead of trying to recuperate what it was going to cost them in redundancies!
Marshalls were/are employed at Coventry as an ATC Contractor to provide ATC staff and ATC Engineers, nothing more, nothing less.
In that respect they're no different from any other Service Provider, if the customer changes their terms of conditions than Marshalls have to cut their cloth accordingly.
It would be no different if it were NATS, Serco, Safeskys or Billy Smarts Circus were running that facility on behalf of the airport owners, they're only in it to make money.
as for the privious post of numbers of controllers I here that they were only looking at 10 or maybe 12 so makes you think that they were milking the system with WMIAL!

Bit of a naughty thing to put in a public forum, especially when you have no facts to back it up.
No doubt the Marshalls Directors will be along for a chat with you.
