Jussi was working here for nothing and as a favour to Ricketts.

Ricketts was undermined, it's as simple as that, when Shrewsbury showed willing to pay the release clause he was simply told he could leave, no fight put up or anything. The board didn't even think Shrewsbury had the money, shows how much research they do.
Didn’t put up a fight but promotion is worth around £600,000 in the short term never mind the long term. How the hell are we going to ever get promotion when we manage the club like a factory hiring Agency staff.
