Big surprise to me that, I thought he would do well for them. If money were no object I'd love to see him join Alty - we would have strength in depth in every department. Picture it:

Young picks up a 5th yellow card of the season just before our crucial FA Cup tie at Macc in November. Not to worry though because we still have McGregor/Shotton who can fill in for him.

Crazy talk I know but the very thought of it excites me.

[The Fan]

Surely worth GH picking up the phone isn't it? Even though many gaps have been filled, his versatility as much as his quality have got to be worth an enquiry.

I am surprised though as Bournemouth are expected to struggle big time in League Two this year.

[markecky]

I think the budget will be well and truly spent now!

I think our cover is OK...

RB - Lane, Batts
CB - Lane, Young, McGregor
LB - Doughty, Peyton

If we got Shotts all three of our centre halves would be first team material, and that could cause an issue for the one that doesnt get in.

[The Red Baron]

Can't believe that! Shotton is a fantasic player, at least Championship level in my opinion.

Love to see him back at Moss lane, but I can't see it ever happening.

[Saughall Robin]

If we had been able to get him on a season-long loan two weeks ago, it would have been fantastic but we should keep with what we've got now.
Besides he'll get fixed up with another L2 side before long, I'm sure.

[Jacko]

I cant believe people think we should'nt try and get him, he could be worth an extra 5 points a season playing consistantly for us, pace at the back is needed

Agreed. He would be our best Defender. Of course, it could be that Stoke have already told GH that they want him to play league football. However, if that is looking unlikely ......    

[AFC56]

Its a no-brainer as far as im concerned. If Ryan is a genuine possibility then we should snap him up, move McGregor to right back (where he has played a number of games in the past) and release either Laney or Battersby.

I think people are gettign a bit giddy about how much we have to spend...that what I mean.

If people can suggest not starting the leagues third top scorer I sure can suggest not being able to afford Ryan Shotton.

[Alty365]

Releasing Chris Lane is not an option.

[Saughall Robin]

Releasing Chris Lane is not an option.

Agreed. For me, he should be one of the first names on the teamsheet.

Surely we can't do Shotton justice, he should be playing in the league.

Besides, i'd rather take what we've got and come out with a 500 quid profit in a years time.

Little should be released. FACT!

[altrincham]

"Little should be released. FACT!"


On the Glue again!

[Jacko]

 i know we havent got an endless thread of cash ecky, i just believe that gh would take him on loan if available again, we might have some room for a loan player,

last season we had plenty of them, its just shotton would really be the icing on the cake

[gazwarrington]

Chris Lane is one of if, if not the best r\b I have seen at Alty.
