Graham Westley was told during the match fromt he opposite dugout that four Preston players had leaked team information to Sheffield Wednesday on the eve of thematch.
Risdale then appears to have conducted a swift investigation over the weekend as if the allegations were proven then the players and the club could havce been in hot water.
It has now come to light that four players were talking with a third party who was not employed by Sheffield Wednesday on a Friday night. Quite unbeknown tot he players they had trust in this third party who then deliberately went to a contact at Sheffield Wednesday to tell them of the information they had gained.
Risdale is satisfied that no one at the club deliberately went to the opposition and leaked information. He hopes this now draws a line in the sand over the hwole affair.
