Who said we want rid? Apparently - and nobody from either club has confirmed this - Shenton has been given permission to talk to other clubs. Assuming that is true, and not just gossip, that could be because he requested permission. He may be unhappy at Saints. Or it may be that being a Dad and trecking in on the M62 almost every day, on his tod, is too much and he prefers to be closer to home. Who knows?
Quite - fact is that we don't know definitively why he wants out, or whether he does actually want out or is being pushed, or what his contract demands are, or what everyone else's salary cap situation is etc. etc. It's all speculation, What isn't speculation is the fact that a pre-Saints form Shenton would be a guaranteed starter at virtually every team in the country (and certainly at Wigan). Maybe he'll never recover that form and maybe a lot of teams don't want to take a risk that he will. As you say, we don't know. But, let's let the clueless numpties make stuff up and fantasize away - it keeps them happy, bless their deluded little minds.
