Shrews boss welcomes Hart money

Last updated : 06 September 2010 By BBC Sport

Shrewsbury boss Graham Turner says he is in no rush to spend the £500,000 the club receives after Joe Hart made his first competitive start for England.Town will get the money from Manchester City as part of the sell-on clause when Hart left Shrewsbury in 2006.

"That money coming in will be set aside for the needs if ever they arise," Turner told BBC Radio Shropshire.

"Having been a chairman myself, I know how difficult it is to run a club at this level and keep it in the black."

He added: "So I've continued the habit of not spending money I don't feel is necessary to spend.

"If there's some good young players out there we feel could be an investment, the chairman, I have no doubts will back us with the finances to buy those players."

Hart made 53 appearances for Shrewsbury before making the move to Manchester City.

The 23-year-old played for England in their 4-0 win against Bulgaria at Wembley.

Turner thinks he will be around for a long time to come.

"I think he could be England's number one for the next ten years," he said.
