It appears we have lost an U15/16s goalkeeper to Man City

Kid called Arlo Doherty who I must confess i've not heard of but seems to be very highly rated,

They've also pinched the scums "most talented player Klug has ever seen from their academy this summer.

Football really needs to put some controls in place to stop academy kids being poached and young players hoarded by the big clubs - its clear that they have cottoned on to the fact they can save themselves a shed load of cash by bribing kids to move at a young age rater than have to buy them when they are 19/20/21.

And before anyone makes the comment yes I am sure we do it do to other below us in the pecking order, doesn't make it right though.
