League Express reports that reserve forward Paul Shaw has been signed up for the 2010 season.

It is also reported in today’s League – Weekly—

Doncaster “Supremo” Carl Hall has told the RFL he needs to know this
week whether his consortium’s takeover bid will be approved.
Red Hall’s Club Support Unit is currently running the rule over Halls’s rescue package.
But whilst Hall insists he understands the unit need to be sure the deal is right for Doncaster,
He says he needs to push forward his plans soon.
“we hope to have a decision in the next week but every week we seem to be saying that”
Hall told the League weekly “We’ve given them a bit of a deadline of Friday we need to get the ball rolling because we’re in danger of falling behind other clubs”
Hall is currently in talks with the players the club wishes to retain for next season,but can’t get players to sign until the takeover is done.

Agree what Carl has done .

I believe Paul Shaw has agreed terms but as stated we cannot sign players on until we know if we have a club !

Interesting that the RFL have been given a deadline.

Whilst I understand the reasoning behind wanting to get things like player recruitment up and running, are we in a position to be giving the RFL deadlines?

Appreciate what you are saying Gary but last seasons pre season was a disaster.

All the recent disasters could lead them to think..."If we've not got the time to investigate properly then we'll have to say no rather than risk it"

I'd rather have a disastorous preseason than no season

Very bold move IMO

Understand the RL are concentrating on sorting out the mess at Celtic Crusaders at the the moment.

paul shaw is unattached so he's yours now, he came from our academy
