I know CCFC have very high hopes for Willis and Lobjoit

And obviously, Christie, Thomas, Cameron (ish) who have broke into the 1st team

Fleck, Barton count as youngsters, high hopes for them as well.

Is there anyone in the U21's who is worth a mention as 'one for the future', Garner?

Future's looking decent.

Garner looks decent from what I saw of him in pre season.

How many of tis crop have been sold? Bigi, for 1m, to a team who came 5th last year and fill a 52k stadium, and is making appearances... Was always going to, wasn't a case of SISU flogging him off!

It was far too little. I'm really surprised Thorn didn't intervene, his talent and potential were worth way more than that and as a scout you'd have thought he'd have realised. When you see Oxlade-Chamberlain going for £12million, it does show that the bigger clubs are prepared to spend the money in the lower leagues.

But then again if we'd got a decent amount for him, I doubt it would have been reinvested in the club.

Oxlade Chamberlain is a bit better than Bigi (I mean a LOT better!) He may make a good player in the future, but not on Ox's level.

I see you point, 1m was low, but, we're poor, just got relegated, lot of debt etc. whereas S'hampton just got promoted and had healthy finances.

I think 2.5m would be fair.

Yeah I thought Oxlade-Chamberlain was still in League 1 when they got him. I'm not saying he's as talented (yet!), but considering Bigi was on a long term contract and I do think we could've got 3/4 million with appearances etc.
