Someone on their message board has said that a guy who works at the club has given an explanation of events from their viewpoint - guess there's always two sides - probably better if Sparks had just kept his mouth shut as it does come across as fairly petty. Ah well, no more Nigel Pepper's then.

Everything was agreed that Donaldson would sign and we announce him when we did with the line of 'upon the completion of his contract at Bradford' which is clearly seen in the website release. Bradford announced him on their released list some weeks before. Nothing was said about naming him as a trialist in pre season games (and why would we... everyone knows who Clayton Donaldson is and he's already announced?!). After we named him and he scored against Whitby, their CEO pursues us for his wages from June and July (why would we pay when as Ryan Sparks says: 'York are playing by the rules'). I was asked to then put him down as a Trialist but I'm not going to communicate this without reason hence the explanation on the tweet and the 'Don Trialist' a mere lighthearted joke to point out how petty Bradford were being - this wasn't off my own back and discussed beforehand. To give context Steve McNulty also signed before his contract ended with Tranmere and still played under his name - Tranmere did not pursue us for his wages. Bradford are in the wrong here, York City are not. Ryan Sparks has spat his dummy out and gone to the press because he couldn't bully us into paying a League Two players wages. It's literally not a big issue - a small minority are making it out to be.

Clearly someone in York claiming to be a Bantam, posting twice in 5 years, knows zero about contracts!
