thats pretty much what I was thinking. shame to see him go but he's never really lived up to hype when we signed him.

how are we going for homegrown players next - we need to have 7 in squad.

so far can think of

halley
langley
burgess
deacon
kopczak
sykes if retained
james if retained
cook if retained

plus academy lads promoted to first team.
If we dont retain at least one of last three we may struggle a bit. Is their any rule about how many first team games players have to play to count towards homegrown quota? or can we just name a few academy players in 1st team squad and not use them?

Elliott Whitehed, James Donaldson, Tom Oblinson, kieren Hyde, Steve Crossley and Andy Tate are already classed as first team

I know but do they have to make a minimum number of appearances to count towards quota? If not whats to stop every club naming 7 academy kids in 1st team squad with no intention of them actually playing.

The fact that if you leave your first team squad 7 men short you'll just end up being decimated by injuries?

You probably thought you couldn't see us trouble you at all last time we played each other, remind me again what the score was though?

I would swap that result without doubt,but i'd bet that you would swap league places and attendances etc

Definatley would, league places and attendance doesn't mean sh*t on derby though, as you well found out last time.
