| I still wouldn't be surprised to see them go. I mean, the club aren't going to come out mid-season and say the coaching staff are getting upheaved at the end of the season. One would still expect some truth in the story yesterday.

The original story was in the early edition of the hard copy yesterday though.'"
there was no retraction in today t&a, at least in copy I picked up at dinnertime - didint notice if it was final edition or not.

| Clawson and St.Hilaire will be going at the end of the season. Richards will be staying.

Is this a prediction or a rumour you've heard?

Is that so he can assist Nobby when he returns next season?

I expect he will be staying for another year, and if so will need an assistant of merit and authority.
IF Nobby leaves Wigan, which by all accounts he is out of favour with the owner, it may be that Phil Veivers is available.

| Quote ="Adeybull"Indeed. And having slept on it (sad I know...
) another line of thought occurred to me. Two stories now in the T&A where someone or other has refuted. What did they both have in common?
First one said that (in short) that Cummings had rung Macca and "apologised" for the officials' mistakes. Subsequent "clarification" said he had not "apologised" but acknowledged the mistakes and did not refute that a phone call took place.
Second one said that Macca "Ruthlessly sacked" his assistants. Subsequent "rebuttal" by the club said they had not been "ruthlessly sacked" and were still contracted till end 2010 but did not state that the latter was likely to remain the case.
The common denominator in both cases, the person that both stories could be seen as reflecting reasonably well on, is of course Macca?. Both were things that (as reported) involved him personally. He is reported as "refusing to confirm the news" on Mon night, which means the T&A must have spoken to him? And note that he is not reported as denying it.
The obvious deduction (to me at least) from all this is that someone within the club has been talking to the T&A. But no doubt we'll not get the whole tale. The T&A story is still up as I write this, but will be interesting to see what gets printed by way of clarification or retraction today. Whatever else, its a hell of a way to run a railroad.
EDIT: And on further reflection, given that this "story" first broke in League Weekly (that paragon of accuracy and objectivity) is it conceivable that Craven read it, rang the club (Macca you assume from what Craven said) and then (maybe with half a tale) ran with this sensationalist story? As I said, hell of a way to run a Railroad, but if the T&A what to run it without decent QA in place guess there is little the club can do about that?'"
Crickey, it's like murder she wrote this....
....in fact you are Jessica Fletcher and I claim my £5

Most people on here seemed to be more than a little curious about how this report arose, and for that matter why it was still there. I thought that trying to apply a bit of logic to see if that might provide some clues might help. Sorry if you did not find it of any value.

Of course it was of value!
