In which case they report the fact that they asked the questions and it was confirmed/denied or no comment. It's common in media. It shows they are aware and not afraid to ask on behalf of their readers/listeners.
Clearly didn’t listen to the sport show at 6pm tonight then

So when you said you "spoke to the club" who exactly did you speak to?

They said karma-sutra69 and lowhanger274849 have raised a potential issue on a none official forum, of PW leaving our club, jimbob48372 disputes it, but jef283884 swears it’s true. Dixie nourmess wasn’t available for comment.

On a more serious note, Adam asked PW a couple of questions on RC (iirc) in the season just gone, around social media rumours, and the rumour often never turned out to be true.

That the club was approached and the response was that there is no comment.

20mins in. Basically the club are saying they will say something when there is something to say!

Sorry - must have missed those questions in tonight's programme. Apologies if I did. All I heard was Adam saying that the "club has been approached", but with no further detail about who exactly at the club was approached. Both he and JP were very cagey which probably means they know exactly was is happening/has happened but are not allowed to say.

Maybe the Evening Mail will get it of the "the club". Oh wait a minute - what have I just said? :lol: :lol: :lol:

All the older supporters have seen it happen various times the new supporters will just have to get used to it if it's going well it doesn't last longer than 2 seasons usually just the joys of being a Barrow AFC Supporter.

However, only the most blinkered of home fans would dream that any manager would not consider moving from a club with limited resources and average attendances when doing well for most of the season of less than 4,000 to a club with substantial resources and average attendances when doing badly for most of the season of 17,500!
And added expectation. Nothing less than promotion would be expected there. Evatt feeling the fan wrath now after missing out with Bolton in L1. Bigger clubs have different demands on the manager.
And do you seriously believe that added expectation ever stopped a manager moving to a larger club? It didn't stop Evatt, it wouldn't stop Wild and it wouldn't stop any other manager or player leaving us.

I imagine he is leaving but my guess is the club are happy to let him go but don't want to sack him while on such a long contract. Imagine he's in talks with other clubs and we are chasing a bit of compensation hense the delay. Purely a guess of course

But what job is he going to? Only vacancy is Barnsley off top of my head and I don't think he'll be League 1 bound.
