Shays fee is one million according to the Beeb.

Where did you see that? Sounds like it is actually going to happen if that's the case.

I'd guess on the Beeb?

To be fair to paulie on the beeb in the gossip link means little, on an actual article written by them is significant.

It's strange how a million pounds is now effectively a nominal fee.

Interesting - he was in our carriage on the train back from Wigan to Euston last week. He still had his Villa tracksuit on - looked like he'd left in a hurry. He acknowledged us when we said hello but made it pretty clear that he didn't want to be disturbed ( headphones on, staring down constantly at his phone...)

We were wondering why he wasn't travelling back with the team. Maybe something happened?

Shay is too good to be a number 2 keeper and at this stage of his career he needs to be playing - he would be an excellent signing for hull and I wish him well if he goes there.

He needs to play first team football and we need to not have a second choice keeper as one of our highest paid players.

Snap their hands off, 1 million and the loss of his wages would be great.

Not in the BBC, but it has been reported elsewhere that it might be that much

From that Mirror article: "Keeper-hungry [Steve] Bruce..."

The tabloids really are an abomination. Keeper-hungry? Jesus. Keeper hungry is what Ariel Castro did and look where he is.
