Yes Roger you are probably right but he did make his debut 19years ago Hard to recall anybody else so their must be hundreds of youngsters had their ambitions ruined

It all boils down to cash, you got the cash you get the players. I love Derby, hate Forest but if I was a footy player and Derby offered me £30,000 a week and Forest offered me £90,000 a week I'd be wearing a red shirt!

Actually it not always down to cash, you can offer a player as much cash as he wants but you got to give him the playing role he wants in the squad plus bonus he requires if he scores a number of amount of goals, number of appearances and number of clean sheets. If you don’t meet the demands of the player’s requirements he will not sign for the club and look elsewhere who will offer him the deal that he wants.

The point is, whatever else is said and done, he won't sign for the Rams!!!!!!!!!!

I've had that discussion with people many times. If Derby offered 3,000 a week and Forest 9,000 maybe I'd consider it for my childrens' sake, but 30,000 versus 90,000, no chance.

They get fined for attracting too much young talent and Real & Barcelona have recieved a transfer embargo because of it.

Good point ddd. Transfer embargo would hurt these rich clubs more than any fine

I wonder if players like Rodwell, Scott Sinclair, and many others look back and regret spending their best years warming a bench of a big club..suppose the wage packet helps

Fabian Delph, Rodwell and Scott Sinclair was never a big club player more of a mid-table side players at best, always bemused me why City ever decided to buy them in the first place. Since Scott Sinclair went to Celtic he became Messi overnight, shows you the type of league and club he’s more suited to when he’s banging in tons of goals for Celtic in the SPL and making assists and he couldn’t even create that in the PL with Man City.
