Message: [QUOTE="1910, post: 2817707, member: 8272"] Walters told a story of how Bennett refused to speak to a reporter for exactly one year because he wasn’t impressed with something he wrote. He rebuffed questions time and time again because he was never going to let the journalist get off his 12-month ban. “I remember (former Courier Mail journalist) Steve Ricketts telling me ... Wayne banned him for something he said about Wayne or about the club,” Walters said on the [I]Big Sports Breakfast[/I]. “Steve to his credit went to every press conference Wayne had and he’d ask a question and Wayne wouldn’t answer it. Then 12 months to the day (since Bennett decided to snub Ricketts) ... Wayne said, ‘Yep Steve, I’ll answer that now, your 12 months is up.’ “It was just incredible, Wayne’s memory with the press.” It was longer Kevvie and bread was broken over lunch before he'd answer.
