Facts don't seem to add up that way but I'd guess it's hard to prove either Sam or his agent had been talking to them

Yes after official approach he was entitled to talk with them.Good riddance as he preferred them. But are we expected to believe that all the approachs and talks happened on Friday?

depends on how you interpret - Shrewsbury Town triggered elements in Sam’s contract enabling them to approach him.

Does it matter? If he wanted to go and they’ve met the release clause I don’t think there’s much point dwelling on it any further.

But it happens all the time and I don't get why this is different. I'm not trying to excuse SR by the way but we all know tapping up happens all the time especially with managers.

The use of 'elements' is quite interesting rather than clauses, suggests dodgy approach to me at least. When keates left we had a full and frank explanation, this time we dont.
