AN excellent move for Shay is this, so it is.

[Jel]

What could have happened that made the club withdraw the contract?
BTW well done to the lad!

[Woodleyclaret]

Good luck to him he just needs to get more game time.
I thought he looked a prospect with our youths but refused our contract so fair play if he moves on up.

[DCWat]

Terrible move!

He didn't refuse any contract - it was suddenly withdrawn by the academy manager

[Colburn_Claret]

I hope it clicks for him at Bradford as it did at Stanley.
Always good to see ex Clarets progress, especially the youngsters.

The one thing Shay has is blinding pace

[cricketfieldclarets]

Good for him. Hope it works. Looks like another prospect we let go thats making a name for himself.

[leem5ki]

Good luck to Shay. Worked hard at improving his game and hopefully will prove his worth to Bradford City and score the winner at Ewood.

Shame for Stanley though they'd begun to get the very best out of him. They have however received good remuneration for him.

Maybe that's why the academy manger couldn't see what he offered?

Amongst many other things

There must have been a really good reason why they withdrew the contract offer.

[South West Claret.]

Good luck to him, see how far he can go in the game, never forget that cracker he scored away at WBA in the FA Youth Cup a few years ago among others.

That was Blake, presumably?

[Saxoman]

Not a right back is he? Were after Bradfords first choice pick..

[Bordeauxclaret]

Goalkeeper.

Very funny. I hadn't read the comments, just the headline.
