From elsewhere CG !..
On their decision to speak to the BBC, Holt wrote: 'They went to BBC Lancashire Sport for one or both of these reasons. To use pressure from fans to coerce me into giving new or extended contracts. To flag out publicly they’re available to other clubs.'
He also admitted that he hadn't spoken to the manager and his assistant after yesterday's win, before claiming last season's relegation was down to some 'poor decisions' made by the management and himself.
'They failed. In football getting relegated threatens a club. Last season was about p*** poor decisions and management. Including my decisions,' he wrote.
'I’m not replacing them. I’m replacing me,' he added.
With Andy's middle name being ' intransigent '.. as we all know, my fears are that he will not under any circumstances move from this reported position !.
As for 'The Management '... ???
