    Don't let them get too you ESL.

    And thanks for posting that link, Danny Rose seemed to be in everything. Surely he'll be in the first team squad soon.
    and anyone say's he's small, he's not really that small and he's got an amazing leap on him. He's a battler too.

    Why is it a load of rubbish. He has a valid point. Only one maybe two players from recent years at the academy have made a career at championship level.
    The three examples you gave one will be released when his contract expires one is only just getting into the first team and only just getting a chance and buttercup struggles with ninety minutes and for me is only starting due to lack of alternatives.
    As for impressing in reserves and in the junior leagues it means nothing unless you can do it against the misters.

    Beevors is a big guy.
    Just had a look on sheffield united forum and they are quite happy that slews gone.
    all of them are training with the first team.
    I've been slated for my views on rnl and butterfield. Don't care what you say, both have impressed at first team level.
    The other 3 will names for them self too.
    Digby at 16 is impressing the first team players in training. The other 2 have done so already.
    Robert Hassell in a interview with the match day program said that Danny rose as a very bright future.

    AND........REMEMBER.......this is the same club that got £££1 MILLION for............

    ...............Andy Gray to Sunderland.............yes, thats right the same Andy Gray that plays for Barnsley

    Andy Gray = £1Million from Blunts to Sunderland
    Jason Shackell = £1Million
    Adam Hamill = £500k
    Brian Howard = £400k

    There's a trend developing here...........and it needs to stop

    Andy Gray at that time was a lot better player than Shackell is.
