totally agree ,I've been saying this for years .Tonteg Bluebird wrote:This is yet another example showing we are bringing good youngsters through. Unfortunately, all our best youngsters are currently getting poached.
Still, it's very unfair to criticise some of the academy scouts/coaching staff when we have had Man City and Man Utd poaching some of our best youngsters within the past 12 months.
There is nothing Darren Purse, Gavin Chesterfield etc can do about that, so they're left with working with the youngsters they have left.

No cannot just take a player from another cat 1 academy like man c done..... but you can sign a youngster from one if it is done for benefit of youngster education and well being but its very strict criteria...

Cheers for that. So even if we were cat 1 we probably lose him anyway. Like some else said why wouldn’t he want to go to Man City?
