Following yet another impressive win, this time over promotion hopefuls Birmingham City Brewers boss Clive Short has rejected the opportunity to swap a relegation battle for a promotion push after rejecting the advances of Blackpool.
"Never crossed my mind to leave". Said Short. "Despite our predicament I'm really enjoying myself here. Yes, there is the relegation v promotion thing but to be fair to the Chairman he told me about the approach and said he'd understand if I wanted to talk to Blackpool. I rang their chairman just to say thanks but no thanks. And despite what some people are saying I haven't turned them down just because another certain manager wants my job. To be honest, this has taken the shine off a fantastic win against Birmingham. I'd rather focus on that and the games coming up."
Short now turns his attentions to second placed Posh tomorrow night. "Birmingham was a great game and a great result but it's gone. We now head to Peterborough for a game I've been looking forward to for obvious reasons. It's going to be tough. Posh play good football, they have a decent squad and they are on a good run. They'll be crossed words exchanged between myself and Lee during the game at some point I'm sure but they'll also be some laughs shared over a drink afterwards."
