Categorically this As things stand i dont know who to believe and the only real detail i am interested in if did he / did he not sign a contract. Im a certified happy clapper and think in general IL has transformed this club. Seems however that he is starting to run things like Whelan did in the last years of his tenure. If they have lied to us in order to extract money from season ticket holders then that is more disgusting than any breach of salary cap. I agree that IL needs to walk and KR too assuming he is complicit. What an appalling situation whereby 3 club legends look to have tarnished their reputations in the town with little scope for redemption. Even if SE comes then the comical handling of the last 9 months has undermined everything before it even starts.

stupid comment for edwards who,s showing he doesn't want the job

Are you for real? He says he was ready to sign a contract last year but was refused. Yet its Edwards fault? Unless the club have some genuine excuse or Edwards is lying then the blame lies solely with the club. I for one cant think of any genuine reason why the club would announce he'd signed a 3 year contract if he hadnt can you? And i very much doubt Edwards is lying as when the truth came out he would look like a massive idiot as well as a liar.

No, Edwards is doing what anybody would do. After 9 months of being left in no mans land, hes saying enough is enough.

Not his fault if pen hadn’t been put to paper. Edwards strikes me as a loyal sort of guy, very grounded and a family man. Had he penned a contract back in August I’m convinced we wouldn’t be here now.

you telling he can't pick a phone up or he hasn't even got a contact number to the club that and has to go to the press to talk to them,

now the club is saying he's not answering his phone and now they've gone to press,

what a set of childish actions

I'm a huge Lenegan fan and what he's done for the club, turning it around after the mess Mo left us in. However IF it's proved the club have lied to the fans, I don't see anyway back for either him or Radlinski.
