A news conference, which was expected to confirm an extended deal for
Jackson, who is currently contracted to the club until the end of the season, still has not signed the new deal. Rumours are abound that he may be holding out for an escape clause, but these do appear to be unfounded internet based rumours.
Wright said: "It's a little bit of a sideshow and one that isn't concerning Peter or myself - basically that contract will be signed in time."
"It's very much Peter wanting to sign a new contract under the right conditions when we're winning football matches and that position hasn't changed," he told BBC Radio Lincolnshire.
Several fans have questioned why he didn't sign following his seven match unbeaten run, and feel that perhaps a degree of uncertainty is seeping down to the players on the pitch.
LCM would urge Jacko to sign the contract as soon as possible, and silence the minority who seem to immediately have jumped on the 'John Ward is unemployed' bandwagon.
