Prolific Goalscorer?

[smudgie]

Better when he was loan?!?!

No chance for me, Terry was one of our best players last season.

Just look what he has done at Shrewsbury this season, guided them into a promotion place, playing a similar role to what he did here.

Smashed in another two great goals on Saturday.

Shrews fans are saying Championship clubs are in for him, that's how good he has been this year.

I had him down as a 10 attempts to score 1 goal player. I didn't realise he'd been scoring a lot at Shrewsbury. I might wear my last season's away shirt with Gornell on the back on Saturday. In memory of what might have been if he and others had stayed after last season.

I'd forfeit Saturday's game if Shrewsbury winning meant stopping Crawley winning automatic promotion. I'm hoping that come the 5th of may their destiny is in our hands, and we can force them into the play offs then......

Shrewsbury is a lot nearer than Crawley, for that reason I'd rather see Crawley promoted. No disrespect to Shrewsbury, but the less southern teams in our league next season the better. (for the away support, our travellers and club economics).

[smudgie]

I agree Redash.

The league has been a nightmare this season for that.

I have missed too many away games, as I simply cannot afford the constant long distance away trips.

If we lose Swindon, Crawley, Torquay and maybe Southend or Cheltenham, Hereford & Barnet and gain Fleetwood, Wrexham, Rochdale, Chesterfield, Exeter (To replace Torquay ) & Wycombe............. it suddenly looks ALOT better

[fc:stanley]

Wycombes still a fair treck smudge ha. Weve benefited anyway with a tasty game against blackpool reserves.

[smudgie]

Agreed Wycombe is a drag, as is Exeter (though i'll be staying in Torquay if its a good time of year, August or Easter weekend please )

As for the rest....... its looks decent, not forgetting Bradford, Morecambe, Port Vale, Burton & Rotherham (with their new stadium).

Izzy McLeod at this level is a cracking player and perhaps may become available?

[Alvin the chipmunk]

The Heed army are only 1 divison below us Cashy. They are a decent Conference outfit who will probably push for the playoffs next season with an increasing fanbase and a planned new stadium in the town centre so may have a bit of brass. So it's doubtful whether the carrot of league football will draw Mr Shaw from "The Heed Army" but would be a good signing.

Was he not transferred for 1 million a couple of seasons ago?

Doubt very much he would come this far north, if it came to it, Don't disagree though.

He's certainly bagged a few goals for Gateshead in his short time there but do we know how old the lad is....If he's over 24 then we'd get him for nowt (assuming a deal could be done regarding his wages) but if under 24 (and Gateshead have offered an improved contract) then we'd have to pay a fee..which unless the two clubs agree goes to a tribunal ( and let's face it we haven't had much luck in those )

But if he's good enough, maybe he'd be worth a look...I've said in the past that we've missed out on some quality young talent for the lack of investment / ambition ( Carl Baker is one that springs to mind ) and it's all a big IF but if we can find the money & the lad proves his worth then maybe we'd gain in the long term when it comes to selling him on ????

Would certainly be a cracking signing but I really doubt that we could afford his wages

28, according the the Encyclopedia Wikipedia


"Jon Steven Shaw (born 10 November 1983) is an English footballer who plays for Gateshead as a striker"

At 28 he is past it then
