• Crewe accused of ‘desperate and dirty’ attempt to fight claims
• Steve Walters tells lawyers to issue high court proceedings
Crewe Alexandra have been accused of a “desperate and dirty tactic” after new revelations about how far they are willing to go to fight claims they should be liable for Barry Bennell’s crimes against boys from the club’s junior set-up.
In the latest development in the Bennell scandal, Crewe’s lawyers have written to one of the victims to say there is “no reasonable explanation or justification” for him having waited until his mid-40s before reporting his former youth-team coach.
