        Here's the pinkun article at the time... (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Oct 1, 15:36:37
        
        that does not state that a longer contract was rejected (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Oct 1, 15:47:35
        
        Why would he be offered the same terms ... (NCFC) - loz, Oct 1, 16:11:03

        Where is the anti-Todd bandwagon? (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Oct 1, 16:09:42
