No he didn't. He left for a better, more senior job. Just as you and I would do.

Not sure he's better paid at the Inde and although a more senior role, than at the Telegraph, it happened at the same time as the Telegraph outsourced a lot of the work he used to do. He replaced Ian Hebert when the inde went online and cut costs substantially.

I like him because he didn't toe the Rags/Dipper/Arse/Other-London-club party line to the exclusion of others.

Interestingly Ogden also got the push / jumped (you decide) at the Telegrah as the Telegragh wanted a Manchester football journalist who would do City as well as Utd - but without the angst/hatred against City (far to many complaints from our media team to various editors so I'm told) whilst still pushing the Utd party line.
The new guy, James Ducker, occasionally gets fed exclusive City stories as a result.
The moral of the story being our media team actually does stuff and why I've stopped criticising them.

Not really sure where else to put this, but while we all criticise the papers, sometimes they include articles as utterly wonderful as this:

Saw the article, couldn’t be bothered reading it. I actually thought it would lead to the next great United player or a failed City player.

But, as a result of your post I did read it. That is an example of PROPER journalism.

THANKS,
