He's from Wigan so Potter had done a great job at Saints so far

To quote Ainscough from this mornings press release.

"It's a fresh start for me."

"Everybody's going to be fighting for their places and starting with a clean slate. It's a big chance for me to impress."

This was exactly the same case at Wigan at the start of this season. He had a fresh slate and was on an equal footing with everyone else. Yet he didn't impress and was unable to show he was worthy of a starting spot.

Now he'll have an easier job of impressing and pushing for a starting spot at the Bull's because of their poor squad. But in Wigan's case when he was coming up against people such as Charnley who at a younger age is able to put in better performances than Shaun, it's no real wonder he's been shown the door.

The best of luck to Shaun, I really do hope he makes a go of it seeing as he now has a family to look after. But the fact that he's only been given a one year deal, suggests's to me Potter doesn't have the greatest of confidence of turning him into a better player.

Not a lot of faith shown with just a 1 year deal.

Chev Walker made a similar quote during the week too. Can't seem to find it now, but he said in a paper Mick is one of the main reasons for him choosing Bradford. He's a great coach, and several players who he's spoken too that have worked with him have all had good things to say. He's the type of coach he likes to work with.

When I saw that, after all the rumours about players not getting on with Potter I thought it was a bit of a surprise.

Finch and Richards are going to have a field day next season

Good luck to him. I hope he makes it at Bradford

It may well of been Shaun's choice to choose a 1 year deal. He won't be commanding a massive wage right now and perhaps has backed himself to earn an improved contract in 12 months.

I cant belive he didnt play every week , a very dangerous player, sort of player who can turn a game . I think in a few years he will be in the long/Briscoe category of wated talent

I would say that it is his attitude that is the problem and not his ability, judging by his ramblings on the internet.

McGuire obviously thought that he didn't deserve a chance, otherwise he would have had some at some point.

Good deal for all parties involved. Simple as that.

I tend to agree with the quote above

Please tell me your joking when you say 'I Cant believe he didnt play every week'? Who out of Roberts, Richards & Goulding would you have played him before?

certainly Goulding and at the begning of the season he would have been infront of Roberts too.

Well im glad your not our coach

We very rarely had all three of those available. Personally, I think he deserved as many chances as Pryce was given.
