Jeffers was a gamble that failed, he gave it a go. There weren't many around giving him stick when he brought him here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The money he held out for and insisted on being repaid back in full and even wanting a portion of the proceeds if were are promoted into the EPL at some point. You need to look into the archives of OT. Ask Nigel Shorts and others who suffered due to his relentless hounding. The only thanks that man can get is for running the club so far down that MM was able to step in and do what he was incapable of doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For that go and see Dave Richards and don't waste your time looking elsewhere a quick look and the last 3 years of richards in charge the club made a deficit of 22 million quid, that he then quit and walked away leaving in his wake players on contracts that he had sanctioned costing us another 9 million the following season tells us you could be right ......

If I was to guess, I would go for the reason behind this was more to do with a clash of ego's and the price Bates offered than Mr Allan doing what was best for the club. My own opinion, obviously.
