Jacob Butterfield: Out of contract in the summer
NO RUSH FOR BUTTERFIELD

Barnsley skipper Jacob Butterfield is "not in any rush" to sign the new deal offered to him at Oakwell.
The 21-year-old midfielder's current deal expires in the summer and he has been offered a fresh two-and-a-half-year contract.
But Butterfield, linked with npower Championship leaders Southampton following a string of impressive displays this season, told the Sheffield Star: "It's still very early days, I've got to make a big decision on my future."
Bradford-born Butterfield, released by Manchester United as a 15-year-old, added: "I've worked hard in my career and hard to get where I am now, so I've got a lot of things to consider for my future.
"I'm happy where I am at the minute. I owe a lot to Barnsley for the chance they've given me because when I was 15 I was really close to quitting football.
"It's great to have been offered a new deal, but I'm not in any rush to make a decision because this is a very big point in my career."

David Beckham: Linked with PSG move
ZIDANE BACKS BECKS' PSG MOVE

Zinedine Zidane has thrown his weight behind Paris St Germain's reported quest to sign LA Galaxy midfielder David Beckham on a free transfer in November.
Beckham, 36, has been linked with a move to the French giants in recent weeks as his contract with Galaxy is coming to an end.
Zidane, who played alongside the former Manchester United star at Spanish giants Real Madrid between 2003 and 2006, believes that he would be a good addition to PSG but has concern over his age.
"It could be good," the Frenchman told RTL.
"Of course, the concern over his age is always there, but he is a great professional who gives everything for his team and always fight. That is important, the main thing.
"We will have to see if he maintains that necessary capacity, but if both sides are keen, then why should he not sign for PSG?"
"I love football, although I would not celebrate if he did go to PSG because I am a fan of Marseille," added Zidane.
The 39-year-old, who is currently working as Madrid's sporting director, also reflected on his time spent with Beckham at the Bernabeu.
"Before getting to know him I had the same impression as everyone else, the one that you see through the media," said Zidane.
"But after that, during our three years together in the same team, I found out what a great person he is, who does not look to blame others for his mistakes."

Rovers fans have called for Kean to be sacked
FANS PLAN ANOTHER KEAN PROTEST

Blackburn supporters are to stage another protest calling for manager Steve Kean to be sacked at Sunday's Barclays Premier League clash with Tottenham at Ewood Park.
It will be the third consecutive home match featuring an organised demonstration against the Scot, who has won only six of his 29 Premier League matches in charge and whose team currently sit bottom of the table.
Fans will march outside Ewood Park prior to kick-off on Sunday afternoon and at the end of the match there will be a sit-in protest in the Ronnie Clayton Stand.
Kean has so far received backing from the club's Indian owners, although banners calling for his dismissal were also displayed at a friendly between Rovers and Pune FC in India last week.
Striker Aiyegbeni Yakubu, meanwhile, insists the players are fully behind Kean and believes the fans can be won around.
He told the BBC: "We just have to stick together and do our job. In the end, those fans will be with us again.
"The protests do affect some players but I just concentrate on doing my job. There is always pressure when the team is not doing well.
"But the pressure isn't on the team when you're losing, it is always going to be put on the manager.
"All the players are behind Steve Kean. When he talks to us in training, we are impressed. It's our job to go out there and win - and that's all we focus on."
