Seem to remember the club going after the journalist who wrote that to ask for it to be corrected as was untrue.
It wasn't the journalist, it was Kieran Mcguire who buggered it up from whose work the piece was written. He writes a lot of good stuff, but in what appears to be his haste to be first and sensational makes a lot of errors and seems incapable of checking his own workings or admitting errors.
I don't think it was the club who went after him, but a lot of Town fans on Twitter who pointed out that he was talking unsubstantiated nonsense!
