Having battled his way back from a cruciate ligament injury he sustained in March Jim Gannon was just weeks away from resuming his Stockport County career, 10 years after joining the club. But? The club decided to terminate his contract last week with the breakdown in relations between the former Dundalk player and the chairman attributed to the club's decision to . . . charge him £10,000 for the use of the ground for his testimonial against Manchester City back in August. Lovely. And there were we thinking English football was all glamour, £50,000-a-week pay cheques and prawn sandwiches.
