No. As if the other players wouldn't have known. They do talk to each you know!

Both have been in the game a long time. They would know of the ramifications if announced and players became p****d off. It is plausible they both kept quiet

Players contract renewals are announced all the time, Pearson's was announced too. This isn't a valid reason I'm afraid.

My guess is that they were waiting till he recovered. Then when he relapsed and was out for the rest of the season they didn't want to announce a contract extension for a player who has a career threatening injury.

It's been bungled but at the time the contract was renewed it was what most people, if not all, wanted. Just shows that honesty is the best policy.

I hope Manny does recover and is fully fit for next season. Again reading in between the lines but I suspect that if he was going to be OK we wouldn't have offered contracts to both Tharme and Kennedy.

I expect the contract to be mutually terminated tbh.

The board have said it so. We must believe the board, we are part of the collective. Assimilation is needed and we must think from the 1 mind and cannot upset the harmony

What a load of crap. The possibilities I have given are my thoughts, the board being secretive are others opinions.

I don't know the actual but as others say this is a message board for fans to express their views. OR is it a message board on which we have to agree with the few who continually have a go at the Wrexham FC board, the WST board and fans who do see good in a lot of what is being done.

The board keeping secrets isn't up for debate, its fact. This isn't the only thing they kept from fans as has been pointed out on this thread.

A player signing a new deal isn't going to be a secret from their team mates. That's ridiculous. I think you are desperate to try and excuse the board for this and it shows when you get all defensive as you have done above. NO ONE has said you have to agree with anything. No one.
