Is the club that wouldn't play ball the rumoured £50k bid for Danny Rowe? If so I would bet that Fylde laughed that out of the door.
January was a catastrophic failure. Simple as that.

This is wrong, as was explained at a Trust meeting not long after he left:
1. He told the board he didn't want the job
2. They began the search for another manager
3. He approached the Club board and said he'd changed his mind, he wanted the job
4. We'd just had 2 of the best performances of the season against Newport & Salford
5. The players backed him
6. The Club board appointed him
7. Weeks later he approached the board and said he had to resign as manager for personal reasons
As much as people want to beat the club board up, almost everyone would have done the same things in the same situation. If people are saying they should have said no to him when he said he wanted the job then frankly, that's just someone with 20/20 hindsight!
