    I feel like I've been in the trenches so long I'm just laughing at the grenades they keep throwing at me ...

    ... I'm just sitting out the war and waiting to be sent home.

    As much as I hate to say it, he needs to leave for his own development.

    I have no faith in our coaches after spending all last year trying to make him a right back

    The club seems now to be on a course of stripping it down to the bear bones.... I don't blame the kid if he gets a move to Norwich...good luck to him

    You know what gets me is that we keep seeing our players leave for clubs divisions higher. Asoro, Maja, Mumba, Honeyman etc barely get a chance and yet other clubs think the raw materials are there for a good player.

    Even Callum Mcmananan is playing in the Championship. It's amazing how many players people think 'aren't good enough' for us end up playing at a higher level.

    I do not understand the club's working out with Mumba. Kimpioka will be next, and I don't blame him. I also think anyone in our academy will look at this and run a ****ing mile when they get an offer, because you could easily end up like Robson, Embleton etc who get caught in limbo.

    Anyone that is vaguely decent or who may command a fee will be sold. Robson and Embleton will be next

    I don't think we'll get anything for either unfortunately, they've been ruined by the club.

    This lad has had one or two run outs with the first team, shown real promise, then vanishes back into the ether, I listened to Paul Ried in an interview a few months back and my heart just sank, our academy is rudderless. I was hoping to see a midfield with Hume, Robson, Embleton and Mumba playing leading roles, sadly I cant see that happening now, or anything like it.

    I remember putting a post on not long ago asking if they new anybody who wasn’t good enough for us playing in a team lower than us can’t remember how many but only a few I think all the rest in teams above.

    Is it wrong to have thoughts of Donald and his chums getting stuffed in the boot of a car getting drove off never to be seen again. :cheesy:

    To be fair, both Ross and Parkinson wanted to use embleton but he picked up an injury and never recovered. Got I think he’d have bade a massive difference. Robson is an enigma. I’ve seen him play well once and shocking loads! Think he’d have handled the third division and still can’t work out why he wasn’t given a chance.

    Mumba was someone I had high hopes for. Looked good when I saw him play so I’m gutted he’s going. Whatn more gutted about us that Norwich is a massive step up from SAFC!!

    I'm actually gone from being angry at what is happening to our club and just becoming sad at the whole mess. Never ever thought my club would end up like this.

    I haven’t seen anything in Mumba personally, so whilst I’m not offended by the sale, I’m offended by the evidence of yet more asset stripping by the hapless ****ing bandits ‘running’ the club.

    They know little of value about business and even less about football.
