Who was the last Motherwell manager to work in such a non-contractual manner who understands a gentlemans agreement?
And Mr Gannon was sacked, he didn't walk away. So what is your comparison? That we'll sack Brown for not signing a contract? Don't get it.
He said he's agreed a deal, it's not written down anywhere but that doesn't matter. A gentlemans agreement is just as good with guys like Brown and Knox.
