    Thanks RoKo and big Abdu. Both class acts and real contributors to us getting where we are now. RoKo with his key goals over the years, and Abdu last season when everything that landed on his "big fat head" (SB's term not mine) in the opposing penalty area seemed to go in as well as scaring the **** out of some big strikers. All the best for the future to you both.

    "You could've thrown the KC at him, and he would've headed that away as well"

    -Brucey on Faye, I think after the 3-1 win vs Bolton.

    Dear Robert,

    Our lass is sad you are going. And for the record so am I. Hope you secure another contract with a club and you have some more good times. Thanks for everything and especially that goal against Leicester.

    Both players have been top professionals for the club and great players. Wish them the best of luck for the future.

    There's 15 names mentioned as part of the 'development squad'. **** me. What do they get paid? We must throw away so much money every year in developing these players for other clubs.

    You know that not one of them will ever play, with the exception of Clark maybe.

    I love the almost apologetic way that the article explains Harper's new deal. As if they really didn't want to but "Well our hands were tied."

    Unearth one gem worth £20m and it's all worth it.....

    Let's hope the next Nick Barmby actually comes through our youth set-up.

    But whatever we do, don't give them a chance to prove themselves before they're 49.

    Was up in Durham in January getting my daughters passport renewed. Whilst killing time in the shopping center next to the passport office i was harrased by some kid flogging Sky tv, to cut the story short he had been a city as a trailist, lived in cottingham for a while. I presume he hadn't made any money as a footballer hence he new job selling sky tv

    Faye has been solid whenever called upon for us and had a great season in the Championship, but we're right to let him go as he's not going to play at this level. Koren has been a terrific servant to the club, and I wouldn't have minded if we'd offered him a new deal as I still think he's a useful squad player. Not quite sure why we're giving Jakupovic a new deal though?

    Any half decent championship side looking to have a go at the play offs at least should seriously consider getting in touch with Koren and Faye, both great players for us, sad to see them go but ultimately the right time

    To be fair, you hit the nail on the head at the start of your post. Had you been watching the youths ranks more closely, you'd have soon realised that much of the hype printed about certain players wad just.....hype with substance. It what you do day in day out that counts!
