Ryan Shotton Part II

Mean while.......http://vimeo.com/104303506

That was rather cold

Good man Big Sam

Decent signing this - centre back competition, right back cover and midfield cover all in one.






The poor man's Greg Halfords but still... beggars can't be choosers.

Milf

I'm quite happy with this signing. No, he's not as good as GT (but then none of us knew how good GT was before he arrived.)
I think what Shotton offers is solidity and versatility. He's played a fair few prem games and not embarrassed himself, so should cope with our level comfortably.
Loan with a view to perm makes total sense - trial him first and, as he's out of contract at the end of season, sign him up IF he proves good enough.

A Stoke fan told me he rates him... Meant to be very solid. Just fell out of favour with Hughes.
He can deliver a better throw in than Ward's set pieces!

Delap 2.0?

Did Delap EVER deliver one of his missiles when he was with us? I dont recall it.

Sadly not.. maybe this time we can utilise such powers!
