    it's nothing new... maybe there was an extra couple this time.... but at the end of the day as long as they can fulfil obligations, playing wise then there is nowt spoiling.

    as has been said this has been long time coming and should have been done years ago
    it should have been done years ago

    and under most clubs it is
    but not on this scale

    if they were gotten rid of as they werent gong to make first team footy
    what makes anyone think under 18s will

    if he is getting rid of them surely he must be bringing in better quality

    players that can make the first team

    mow i might be wrong
    but those type of players usually coem at a price

    do we have money to spend on these plyers

    Well I'm sure our wonderful owner, will make all the funds that the club generates available to our esteemed manager..
    It's just a pity that our turnover apart from Sky money has fallen more than any other prem club in the last ELEVEN years

    a lot of youths dont get pro contracts
    these all had contracts

    i wonder how much it is costing the club to get these of the bpooks
    They didnt have contracts anymore, that is why they have been released.

    u23's do too....... how many do you see in the first team squad ?? very few and far between, those that make the step up are the exception, not the rule... so what happens to the rest of them every year.... they get released/moved on/whatever,
