poor Ollie Shenton finally released after 15 years at the club, that"s loyalty did he ever make a 1st team appearence ? Yeah, MH brought him on at the very end of a Prem match just after he lost his mum. Such a shame for the lad.

We don't half go through a shed load of players at the sub 23 level. Many are barely ever heard of. It's a shame our conversion rate isn't greater. We don't really. We've had this group for a couple of seasons now. It's like most clubs. I hope a few of them stick with it as they'll make league players with the right attitude. Any on that list you’re disappointed to see leave?

I think theý were heard about often and they did well enough in their team and in pre season outings. McJannet and Dunwoody often were part of the extended matchday squad, but with 37 older men in front of them for the team itself, they were never really able to change the poor "conversion rate". Dunwoody is the biggest surprise. He's a leader and was spoken about more than once by O'Neill.

Any on that list you’re disappointed to see leave? Not in the sense that I thought they’d make it here now. Ollie Shenton is the obvious one though. Refused loans, kept and then not played. Has to be a lesson to everyone at the club on how not to do it. I hope Dunwoody, Pemberton and Jennings get decent clubs at Legaue 2/Conference level though. All could be decent players for someone. I expect McJannett to be there or there abouts too.

One in a League Cup match vs Portsmouth. One vs a big club (I can't remember which one) in a PL fixture we had already lost. 22 now and has spent the last two seasons on loan at non-league sides.

Was Man City, I looked it up. I presume the confusion comes from the fact Lampard played and swapped shirts with Ollie. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/31124657

Black Kieran is that racist ? ? no it isn't are you 12? Off a thread on the EE board posted by Orbs and I shit you not.
"Just back from a trip to the local Co-op. Couple in front of me in the queue. Conversation with staff member and female member of the couple goes like this:
Staff:'Hi, how are you doing?'
Woman from couple: 'I'm good thanks. Is Simon in today?'
Staff: 'Which one?'
Woman from couple: 'Black Simon'
Interested to hear thoughts on this. "

My thoughts are that there is clearly more than one person called Simon.

This retained list we've announced,
Does it mean that we are actually holding out for other clubs to come in for our stars and actually offer us money for them ?
