Shakes is a good player, just don't think he's ready for international yet. Also we need him to be fit for the Copa Ibiza tour.

He does play well, good winger imo. Will be useful for next season.

All he has to do is learn to cross. And Pass. And Shoot. And head.

Some Swindon fans were singing 'he's going to germany' at Ricky Shakes after he left the CG last Saturday, I then shouted out 'he better have a ticket then' I felt harsh at the time...

But totally usless player, I agree Yeovil Red is more of a winger than Shakes....

If he put as much energy into his football as his dancing  :roll:

Yeovil was spot on, a bit of pace doesnt mean he's a good player.

No point in playing a winger that cant cross the ball.

You get a few players like our Ricky who because they were fast and strong as a kid where believed to show promise, despite the lack of any real technical ability, and somehow end up with professional contracts.  Could possibly make a reasonable right-back if he's taught to keep it simple.

Too small for a right back.

I thought Shakes was brilliant as a right wing back at Scunny. Or wherever he was playing, did well in defence.
