    Well if it starts going wrong with Ainsworth, watching Andy Cook going through Haka therapy would be gold.

    Edit- couldn't find a clip without the Brent mix over the top.

    That’s not true. Many employers only offer job from applicants on the basis they are prepared to up sticks? How do you think I ended up in Bishops Stortford and the “ Company” paying for move costs etc etc. ? I accepted the post in the knowledge I’d have to move. That’s why I asked the family BEFORE applying. You might be right ie spin, but it sounds embarrassingly dumb to spin that yarn as the reason. Makes him look like a stupid idiot!

    Yeah I know. I'm saying most of what is said in the media, isn't the literal truth. It usually has a different agenda.

    We'll have to agree to disagree. I think it makes him look discreet, professional and like he's prioritising what he should.

    100% this. Shocker Mr Fake CEO @Kevin1954@Kevin1954 doesn’t understand this! Bloody hell what kind of CEO gets sucked in to bullshite from the media spin… oh Mr I know f all @Kevin1954@Kevin1954.

    The Crowleys clearly thought f this club. Maybe, got told Trueman as to stay or just thought Sparks is bloody clueless and they will be sacked within 2 years. No matter what they didn’t turn down the job due to family reasons.

    Maybe Busby and Ferguson did a Parky and took the plan when they left.

    Well Rowett has experience at this level with Burton so maybe he would be interested, especially with our ground and fan base.

    Gary Rowett appeared in the betting, former Burton Albion and recently sacked at Millwall. I think he’d be really good if we could tempt him.

    Bit worrying that the new names are Ainsworth and Rowett... Can't see either dropping to L2....

    Be impressed if we got either.

    I'm not saying the Journo is lying, or even wrong. The Journo will be saying whatever Cowley or whoever his source is is telling him. And whatever he's being told could be literally true, or spin.

    Definitely worth talking to the pair who saw Hughes dropping to league 2

    It isn't.

    It isn't the only factor. He will have weighed up everything and decided that having to deal with x and y as well as compromising on his family wasn't worth it. If everything was in order then he'd have probably worked around the family impact.

    Everyone always looking for a conspiracy...

    Exactly. I can't believe people are actually falling for this 'family reasons' BS.
