Leigh Mills?

Yeah, can't remember the name of the 'striker' we eventually got on loan from them but he was hopeless.

Maybe we're getting money and players?
That in the circumstances would make sense and is exactly what I think we should do, assuming the right players are available for the deal.

remember the last time we did a deal with Spurs? Weren't we supposed to get a couple of players in on a season long loan and we got nobody? Can't even remember who we sold to them as part of that deal, a young kid I think,

It was Slabber and Mark Yeates that came as part of the deal.

Reading his Wiki page an example of the fact that getting to a big club early doesn't mean a successful career!

I agree with you 100% but the club has to get the fans back somehow otherwise the playing budget becomes lower and lower and our position will likely follow. It may not need the money spent on players but somehow the town needs to be engaged in the long term.

Based on what?

Our budget was slashed significantly and we finished 4 positions higher.

if you dont want the budget to be slashed then fucking show up.

What JJ said makes perfect sense. I can't see Power being fooled like we were before.

Was that really 11 years ago? Jeez!

Lots and lots of examples of young kids going to big clubs and having a crap career.

He had a big "Billy big balls" attitude apparently, refused to play for Brentford after a loan as he thought he was too good for them.

He is still only 27 and playing at a very low level. Should have stayed with us longer. Still we got around £150k for him in total.

Nobody seems to have mentioned Miles Storey lately.....

Another one who's gone nowhere since leaving us is Alex Henshall.....I guess he'd have gone nowhere if he'd stayed with us and just been poorer in the pocket.

Henshall was a dick. He tweeted saying L Thompson cant be compared to him as Henshall was so much better than him a while back.

Erm....

Storey and Hylton up front next season with Barker as number 10.

Dreamy!

Erm....

Was he the lad who went to Manchester City - actually checking myself he was now made a monster 10 appearances in his career including 1 last year. Twitter detail suggests he is an England International although doesn't appear to have played for 4 years since the under 17's. Which would suggest remains a bit of a dick!
