i agree with what your saying about not taking the chance on the quality like Ashton (it was thought he had weight problems when he was coming through) Bent, Sharp.
but with letting the players go, since moyes has come in, the players that have been let go havent done much at our level. i stil honestly believe that if the players are good enough they will make it here at EFC. alot of people say about Hughes being let go (well, sold for pennies) i cant say i rated him.even for the reserves he didnt look fantastic. i still dont think Vic will make a top half of the prem type player. but Vaughan has more about him, and JPK has been showing signs of making the grade for about 2 years. when he steps up a level im sure we'll see another one of our youth system blowing up.
hopefully finch farm will help with development too
