It is lovely to be right! All those who doubt my source - being a certain player lol!

Shenton if he comes then, as he should, no real Westerman like aliegence to Cas and dislike of us.

Not for the 1st time tonight i watched Cas with an eye on Shenton and found myself underwhelmed but far more impressed with Owen.

I assume Cas moved Shenton to left centre to make him their main strike weapon this year? If so, he wasn't exactly an outlet.

Whilst i don't doubt your source(at least until proved otherwise) i'd say yer wide of the mark re-shentons loyalty to cas he stayed when they were relegated and could of left for nothing having a choice of a few clubs.

I agree but to be fair cas had to do a lot of defending especially in the second half and if we were to get shenton or atkins i'd expect them to be better playing in a better squad.

Atkins has nothing on Shenton, wouldn't even be an improvement on Senior or Watkins if he signed for Leeds.

Dont think Shenton or Atkins will be coming your way

The finances at Leeds with the Uni pulling out means who is next to leave

heard a whisper that Sinfield maybe unsettled and looking over the penines

Without the uni Leeds are still way under the cap with the biggest support, if Leeds are skint where does that leave most other clubs.
