Kyle's right, we should have kept him and released Jack Smith :-))(

Lapham doesn't sound too bitter does he  If he's so good he would have found a League/Conference team. But, alas, the football scrapheap is not easy to get out of! |

To be honest Lapham looked alright when he played Under Kingy a couple seasons back, but hey. Atleast his buddy Matty Bulman is playing in the Conference South (Salisbury City)

I don't think the youths get given enough of a chance. Rather than an endless stream of loan players to fill gaps, I'd prefer to see our youth players involved instead of a Premiership youngster.

I think he has a point sadly the main reason lots of these lads are released is because they simply aren't considered big enough.
The current Youth lads seem to be doing well inspite of the fact that they have a different Gaffer every week it rankles a bit with me when they call it David Byrnes side though obviously it is now his side.Any sucsess these lads gets is first and foremost down to themselves,a Scouting policy introduced by Kingy to get "big old units" and a bit from each of a long long list of managers they have had over the last few years.

should have kept Lapham.
He could have done a job as back up right back to Jack Smith, and as a really make shift centre half.
I know I only saw him the once! but I thought he played well and took to pro football like a duck to water.
Just my opinion like....
We seem to give youth one or two games but not a run in the team...Garrard, Lapham, Stroud, Henry, Caton, Holgate, Taylor etc!

Not sure Rich, he's released Henry and Stroud and sent Holgate out to Macclesfield.
Personally I thought Stroud would have been perfectly capable at this level, the number of left-wingers we had only hindered him - shame he didn't come through a little earlier.
I'd like to see more of Wells really, he's looked decent enough when I've seen him in the yoofs/reserves/friendlies.

I think he's aiming concentrate and the Cup run kids and educate them the way he wants too. Perhaps, he felt it was too late for the likes Henry and Stroud. I am only speculating here. Holgate isn't finished yet (?) and Wells has been kept for a good reason I'm sure. It's a case of having to wait and see but he put alot of faith in his youths at Sheffield Wednesday. |

Didn't he used to blow chunks at half time during every game. And he actually threw up on the pitch at Sheffield Wednesday.
