    Another player through the ranks at oakwell to a top club well done to the coaches in the academy must be doing summat right. Bree and templeton the next ones in a few years to go to a premiership club?

    Deserve tremendous praise for the job they do.

    A shame Holgate and his agent didn't treat them and the club with the respect they deserved

    Hope not. We have to take a stand at some point of retaining our star products from the Academy to help ensure we get out of this division. It must be dispiriting for Burton & Heckky to see their best work just turned into dosh, rather than their products playing and ensuring success for their home town club.

    How do you anticipate doing that? We can't force them to sign contracts.

    True no loyalty what so ever been at oakwell scince been 9 years old and cant even repay us with a full season or to sign a new contract so we have the upper hand on a transfer. I hope he does well but only so bfc profit from.future incentives.

    Disagree a club like us have to sell to the big fish It like the football food chain. With real and barca been at the top. Burton and hecky will be proud as to see holgate play in the prem and stones put a england shirt on.

    The whole idea at the club is to get young players in to improve then profit from.... Or am I missing something?

    I would hope the academy keep bringing these players through as well as the young players we are signing from elsewhere. In an ideal world we could keep them all but a club like ours are relying on player sales just to keep afloat.

    By selling them we'll have more money to buy quality players to get out of the division and hopefully be more successful if we get to the championship

    Look at Southampton. They couldn't get Lallana, Shaw, Chambers to stay but have got loads of money to improve their squad. We can do the same just on a smaller scale

    Difficult to do, yes.

    How to get round this? Try to enthuse them with a passion for their club, that they'll be part of a potential promotion winning team which will result in increased wages at a higher level.

    The alternative is to just become a conveyor belt for Premiership clubs, and stay where we are.

    Sky and BT have a lot to answer for here, with their huge bids for television rights, allowing clubs to pay massive wages.
