Been told he can leave but has also got a clause which triggered a extra year.

we are going to end up lumbered with players we dont want taking up our budget next year at this rate.

at least we know we have a winger coming in

No other team is stupid enough to sign him a winger that cant cross a ball.
We will be stuck with him.

I think living in London will rule him out a move up north.

I guess with him and Weston its a case of whether they want to play football or not.

The difference is, I can see teams coming in for Weston  :?

someone will come in for Shakes, if only on the premise that they might be able to improve him...

Exactly Sonic - pacy players will always be in demand - he has a good work ethic too - just lacks quality.  I suspect someone will see him as a challenge and take a gamble that they can coach some quality into him IMHO.

i cannot see anyone coming in for him that will pay similar money or offer the level of football swindon are at.think we will be stuck with him for another year.
but like dv said i think weston will get a club easily enough.

He'll go out on trials, and hopefully someone will be fooled like King was by his pace - remember pre-season at Cirencester...i wasn't there but people reporting back were sayig what a quality signing he was.

Saying that, no grudge against him - he's got a good work rate. Hope he finds a decent club....like Grays Athletic

Might be time to cut a deal, pay up the contract, get him off the books.

Someone will take him, the problem with offering players incentives in their contract is that it could have worked the opposite way and he could hacve been a revelation and people would ask why he didn't have a clause or signed up sooner when he moved to a bigger club.

To be fair though if he is in a team that is not going for promotion in L2 he will probably do a good job and get a good run, although his crossing isn't the best he does cause problems for pooosition when he decides to run at them.

Good luck to him..but I don't want to see him stay as there is no chance of his displacing Roberts - what we need is someone to challenge Roberts for that position.

If Shakes' agent can't find him a league 2 team to play for Ricky should sack him.  Get his name out there, mention the Trinidad and Tobago international is available and some team will take him on trial and offer him a deal.

Good luck to the lad, I think he always tried, just lacked a little class.
