Any idea why he didn't play last night? Someone told me at the game it was about appearance money. If he surpassed a certain number of first team starts then he would have to be paid extra as part of contract.

They were worried Shakespeare had noticed he looked something similar to Matt Gidley and that eventually, having two of them on the field would result in Shakey gettin overly excited and causing an already empty stadium to clear.

I think he had a slight injury midweek so no point risking him against salford

most probable explanation is he had picked up a knock
