I note that Chester's Chairman, Stephen Vaughan, has now insulted you guys as well. He did the same to us regarding Phil Jevons. I also note he tells the media before any of the clubs! What a t*****. Text below is taken from TeamTalk.
Shrews reject Tolley bid
Shrewsbury have rejected a "ridiculous" attempt by Chester to lure Welsh Under-21 midfielder Jamie
Tolley away from Gay Meadow.
The Shrews board immediately responded by dismissing the bid from their League Two rivals - a
maximum of £10,000 - branded as "ridiculous" by manager Gary Peters.
He said: "There's no bid been in from Chester, they sent a fax stating that they would pay £5,000
now and £5,000 in a year's time. They tried to make out it was a five-figure fee; £10,000 is a
five-figure fee but I think they were trying to make it look in their local paper that they had
offered 90-100 grand.
"If you are going to do something you may as well do it legitimately and properly, but to send a fax
with something as stupid as that and then to tell your local paper about it makes me wonder what
they are trying to achieve. It's ridiculous and even if they had offered that sort of money Jamie
wouldn't be available," he told the club's official website.
