Exactly.
It makes you wonder if Ferguson/Bentiez/Moyes had the same situation if they would have got the truth out of them right away.

I feel for Coley, over 10 years Williams was alot more than a squad player - he must have been a personal friend. He has been let down, but maybe in the future he will not let loyalty cloud his judgement.

Coley has had a lot to put up with over the last couple of years, I think keeping his head down and producing the best team he's capable of, given the circumstances, is all he could do.

And he's whet every Stanley fans appetite for the forthcoming season.

So Dave 007, why don't you do one, wouldn't be the first time.

i dont know who you are or what your problem is, but you clearly havent read my post for the past few years.
When a significant proportion of fans have slagged coley and asked for him to go, I have always said he should remain as manager.

Let's not forget that the club was holding an internal enquiry anyway. Presumably the results of that will be announced after the FA verdict on Cav has been announced.

Of course, the internal enquiry is interesting. Who held the enquiry? Were they told the truth? If so, how long has the club known the truth?

I doubt the club wish to disclose publicly any findings from an internel investigation. We can only presume the players lied to coleman/Bell/club official and denied the bets. I doubt Coeleman would have played or involved either Williams or Cavanagh last season if they revealed the truth prior to the FA's verdict.

i can think of 3 possibilitys,
1. Coleman felt Williams wasnt worth another try (lets be honest only an average league 2 player and now aged 29) and released him in some what strange circumstances (no phone call),
2. Stanley got a 'hint' from an FA source prior to the official release that Williams was guilty at the end of the season and no further contact to the player was made,
3. Stanley knew all along and kept quiet as they where short on players/money and where more concerned with staying up, thus kept williams on the staff and kept quiet until it was proven by the fa.

Either way, it would be nice to find out.

regardless of what comes out, we have all lost out of this and we can expect plenty of jibes this coming season.
