Although out of the 14 players gone I don't think any of them should be near the 1st team and righty so they should he gone, which imo tells me we have some serious problems getting decent standard championship players coming through the set up somehow.
Always baffled me seeing other championship clubs with 2 or 3 under 20 or something playing in the champ for different teams weekly yet we can't get ONE not ONE playing every week.
Anything under the 1st team should be scraped imo as it ain't worked for years on end really.
The good old reserve league years ago when men took on boys and gave them a proper experience was the best rather than a bunch of over paid players playing u21 vs u21. I know which one would give them more for the future if they are going to make it of course.
These days we got 22 year olds driving about in 80k cars ffs and will never play 1st team football its madness tbh. If they ain't made it by then f**k them off how I'd see it but people call them kids and youngsters which there not.
Just under par players taking up wages from improving the 1st team imo that's all they are.
Something needs to change within the club as it ain't right clearly or we would have a load playing by now surely.

Not just 80k cars I came across one of our under 21’s a couple of years back who paid £2000 for a pair of bloody shoes Needless to say this player is no longer with us and no sure where he is now but certainly not in any league team i know of

Most of the players gone won’t make it for us and we were once again wasting money on them.
A good saving sending them out as they are also def not good enough.
