Title: Alty old boy

ALTY OLD BOY
The NPL reports that former Alty loanee Ryan Shotton has signed forms for Leek Town. (John Laidlar)

Surely he can do better than that, especially as Mullarkey will be out for a while!

He must either be injured or just regaining fitness to have dropped that far You’d assume.

We should have looked into this. Some player to drop that quickly.

He could always do a Clayton/Potter at Leek

It's not explicit in this article from the Stoke Sentinel, but it's implied that he is doing Neil Baker a favour while Leek have an injury crisis. He  would have to fit football in with his interest in the pub mentioned in the article in Cheddleton, near Leek, although, thanks to Boris Johnson, that might not be so much of an issue right now.

It would be a shame if he became a loss to football.
I am sure a part time club at tthe highest possible level could be good for him to see out his career.

It says he's signed forms which I understand to mean just a registration rather than a contract.

I’d provide his transport up here. I’d pick him up in a shotton me bike.
