If O’Driscoll was going to put out a whitewash statement to satisfy some sort of confidentiality clause, surely it would not be as long as that one?
It would have been something like ‘I’ve resigned because I can’t dedicate the time required by the job due to personal reasons’.
As I said, I don’t know which version is correct but I would lean towards that of O’Driscoll. Journalists will always go with the sensational rather than the mundane, for obvious reasons. Similarly, those with a blind animosity towards the club owners will always believe the sensational, since it furthers their agenda.
We are not playing well at the moment but that doesn’t mean that everything about the club is bad ffs.
The club owns its own training ground within the city limits, the club is carrying out improvements to the ground, we have a reasonable, if somewhat midfield heavy squad.
It’s not all bad ffs.
