LEAGUE SLUMP …Tapp exits

BY BENJAMIN MASLEN Fans flocked to Modchester’s training ground today to pay homage to arguably one of t h e l e a g u e ’ s g r e a t e s t managers. In a memo leaked exclusively to The Sun, Luke Tapp described the last few months at the helm as ‘a living hell’ which had made his position and manager ‘untenable’. Teenage girls cried as boys as young as 7 laid down shirts at the front gates with Tapps’ name emblazoned on the back. Both the club and manager have not made themselves ava i lab le for comment , though Tapp has lodged an offical complaint to the Press Commission after being chased around his local golf course in Dubai by paparazzi.
