Shentons agent David Howes tried to arrange talks with Leeds before Shenton resigned with Cas. Leeds rejected the advance so Shenton took the only option open to him.

You look really silly now but you'd be used to that.

Shock horror agent tries getting player a better deal!

No that doesn't make me look silly because we all know that he had offers from other clubs.

The original quote also said at the end of last season, which was AFTER he signed his new contract.

slow week again i see

LMAO

no realy!!!!!!

But i thought it was within our CEO's powers to simply click his fingers and get any right centre our fan based dreams of?

I haven't seen too much of him but he was no great shakes Friday and the previous time I watched Cas to see how he went I was far more impressed with Owen.

Clearly a well regarded player but I am not yet convinced he's the answer to the problem I am not convinced we have.

Where have you heard that?

As I explained in my earlier post I see plenty of reasons why a player who has shown tremendous loyalty to Castleford through two relegation seasons in the past would remain loyal to Castleford now.

The question is would posters like to see Shenton play for Leeds? This poster says yes while acknowledging it's highly unlikely to happen anytime soon.



Right centre is a problem area, has been since Toopi's departure, but it's not the only issue facing Leeds.

To have a better chance winning silverware.

Which other issues do you think there are?

Is that a given anymore? With a level salary cap in place it shouldn't be the case. Leeds' time at the top won't last forever and that adds to the frustration when players are allowed to leave but are not adequately replaced.



Lack of recruitment generally resulting in an understrength squad, with cap money left unspent and quota places left unfilled, Academy players not ready for the step up, raising question marks about the quality of the Leeds coaching set-up.

is that your opinion or the man nobody will employ?

I can't see Cas winning the GF for a number of years if ever.Clubs can spend up to the cap whether they all choose to is another matter.
You seem pretty disillusioned with Leeds?

i think he means, and i agree, why are we miles under the cap when the squad is in need of a couple of players. i think what with the world cup players not having an off season and having to play long spells each week,we can't rest people.

If Eastwood had signed would we have been that far under the cap?
For mine there is no point in spending up to limit for the sake of it.Other than Gleeson which other players were available mid season?
