I don't think he backtracked at all

It was just that the club wanted to announce it officially themselves (as they did yesterday), so in the meantime he had to try and pretend his tweet wasn't true. He was already committed to resigning when he made the tweet.

        Yeah. although that basket case of a club can't seem appealing, surely? (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:11:00

        Ref Lerner selling (NCFC) - CWC, May 10, 12:23:07
        
        Yes, that's true. We wouldn't have looked appealing. (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:17:32
        
        If it was a simple headhunting/fancy a change whatever (NCFC) - harry boulders, May 10, 12:35:47
        
        well they might not appoint him officially until the end of the season (NCFC) - mr carra, May 10, 13:29:02
        
        Why? would it not suit his new club to be sooner? (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:41:31
      - More like he was backed into a corner after drunk in charge of his twatter account. (NCFC) - harry boulders, May 10, 12:07:27
        
        board wouldn't have got rid of him just for that (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:10:04
        
        Well, he said he'd resign caused a minor shit storm... (NCFC) - harry boulders, May 10, 12:26:55
        
        I don't think he backtracked at all (NCFC) - mr carra, May 10, 13:22:46
        
        I agree. Would be a tad hypocritical of Delia to sack someone for being publicly drunk (NCFC) - Old Man, May 10, 12:12:06
        
        A more innocent time then though, wasn't it (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, May 10, 12:16:17
        
        You don't sack someone you want to keep, just for that (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:18:25
        
        then we ultimately didn't want to keep him did we, and he simply hastened his exit. (n/m) (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, May 10, 12:22:05
        
        We don't know (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:24:01
        
        Yes really. They accepted his resignation. (NCFC) - harry boulders, May 10, 12:30:23
        
        You're assuming he resigned over the twitter stuff (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 12:40:05
        
        So you think if Twittergate didn't happen, he still would've walked Monday? (n/m) (NCFC) - harry boulders, May 10, 12:54:59
        
        surely Twittergate happened precisely because he intended to resign? (NCFC) - mr carra, May 10, 13:03:50
        
        That's what I thought (NCFC) - KentonCanary, May 10, 13:15:02
        
        surely the only reason for the 'storm'... (NCFC) - mr carra, May 10, 13:19:24
        
        Too much sensible thought. (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, May 10, 13:05:21
        
        Exactly. (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 13:05:18
        
        I don't know the reason (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, May 10, 13:02:56
    - The politician in him (n/m) (NCFC) - CB41, May 10, 11:58:54
      - Yes... (NCFC) - Brom, May 10, 12:00:12
