I hope he isngt going to sign for them, he would definatly be a welcome addition in my book

You'll need a new centre aswell.

Ian Millwards confirmed that Shenton will be at Saints next season. His been told by a few of the Saints lads.

From what I hear, the money Shenton is asking from Cas to stay is astronomical, as much as we'd love to keep him one player is not bigger than the club and for the wages he is apparently asking we could sign practically anyone.

If that's right NT then he can go. Shouldn't be holding the club to ransom. 1 player aint bigger then the club.

confirms what i was told from a club employee,he wants silly money to stay and even saints are struggling to get him and stay within their budget for next year has a direct replacment for gidley it shows what kind of money he his asking.

I do want Shenny to stay, but paying silly money is a big no for me also. The lad has potential for sure but i did expect much more from him this season considering he's an international now. Too many times i see him grabbing at players as opposed to putting the shoulder in. He also has let one or two players run past him far too easily. I think he's been quiet in attack, but i do put much of that down to the way we attack (pretty poorly mostly). His defence though needs to toughen up for me for him to be classed as an international standard player, and one that Saints are prepared to pay big money to replace Gidley.

Too true Marshy. I don't think he has set the world alight this season. He has pretty much been a good quality reliable centre and we can get one of those for a lot less money than he is reputadly asking.
