    He seems to think that Biancheri is as good as gone, but then again he said Bale had signed so...
    He also seems to believe we developed Sang rather than Bolton and then Man Utd who released him.

      Quite.

      The overall points of the article are interesting though and a little concerning. Charlie Crew going to Leeds as well as the reported interest in several players suggests this is a talented group (they also form the bulk of a good Wales u17 side) so it would be a shame to lose them

        Biancheri was supposed to be off in the summer but he stayed. Flaw with his article, there’s nothing to stop them from leaving if we are at Cat 1 either. We just need to make sure they know they have a path to the first team. If they still leave, that’s disappointing but that’s the best incentive. Us being an average at best Champ club is probably the best thing for these young lads as they’ve only got to be better than people like Harris and Whyte to get minutes.

            Crew has left, he’s not on trial. He’s signed for Leeds

              He was legally poached last summer from our academy.

              The current system stinks. Anyone showing any promise can be enticed away with next to no recompense to the club who spent years developing them.

              The current system needs to change or more clubs will adopt the Brentford model which doesn't benefit youngsters.

              Using Rabbi Matondo's exit as an example a fairer system would have given us at least 50% of the fee Manchester city got for him. The percentage should be set by the number of years between transfer fee and joining their first academy. If say we had spent 5 years developing the player and so had Manchester city then a 50 50 split would be fair.

                Well said, it is a disgrace. If not checked, it could end up with only half a dozen teams having Academy's throughout the English League.
                David Moyes's suggestion of teams being limited on registrations is one of the best I've heard.

                  Think he makes a good point in that we appear to be considered a foreign club when it comes to loans and an “English” one when it comes to bigger clubs taking our best prospects for a pittance - now that would be a court case we would win.

                            Is any of this with the intention to get to cat 1? Even eventually?
