That could all be utter tosh, but that’s what he said on the night. As for our local newspapers and their coverage of WAFC, they have at least been consistent. It’s never searching, driving, investigative journalism. It’s wishy washy, inoffensive drivel. The sort of reporting that any 12 year old could write. Newspapers are losing circulation fast. Hardly surprising.

If you don't say yes you don't get the job, nothing to do with managers wanting too much pay or any other excuses. Ricketts wanted Darlington out eventually, which forced his hand, no fight put up to keep Ricketts either, just told to go.
Ricketts and Barrow didn't have that argument in front of Spinster either, Ricketts tapped Barrow up, hence why he resigned and joined him at Shrewsbury once his contract allowed.
