Sean has been quoted as saying that the club was not prepared to break our salary cap to sign Shackell. My source at Coventry tells me that Ward is/was on £10k per week, one of the reasons he was not offered a new contract. With Billy Sharp reputedly on similar money at Blades, we will be lucky to sign either let alone both.
O how I hate the close season...almost as much as I hate football agents.

Forget Billy, if we can`t afford to live with the likes of Barnsley, and we can`t afford a 32 year old LB thats in the twilight of his career, what chance have we got of getting Billy!

What if billy is higher up SOD/JR's target list than Shackell and Robbo? What if they were to offer a massive bonus scheme for goals? What if Billy wanted to stay at the Rovers more than we give him credit for? What if they were prepared to offer a longer contract with more incentives to Billy?
Might all be b*llshit, but then again it might not....
Don't you just love the close season? :P
