Harvey Elliot -Gone

[grandad]

God help him when he has his first shave, learns to drive & is old enough to drink alcohol. He will cut himself to pieces, smash his car in the first week & will end up being in a nightclub brawl.

If we cannot keep a player like Elliot and he walks without the club getting a fee then why do we bother with an expensive academy.

Too true you would think that if clubs manage to do this the club they are taking them from automatically get a 50% buy on clause.May help even things up a bit.

I was talking to a Milwall supporter on Sunday who lives in Epsom (yes we do allow them in!).
We were discussing young players and the dangers of them being poached. He said that he thought two promising Milwall youngsters had gone to large clubs and in each case a sell on clause was allowed.if this is true they have been very shrewd in their dealing and this is something we should be doing.
To be honest I have not checked their ages which could affect the possibility of this being allowed.
