Baird of the land

It's the timescales that have killed the joy. 3/4 years of joy of seeing them play for saints would be ok. The new sell them the instant they show promise kill it's completely for me.

You do invest in a training ground if the plan is to repeatedly strip any assets of value coming through the academy. That's renewable asset stripping or harvesting if you like the term better.

Worst fact about asset strip is that they have removed any joy from watching academy players play for us. We know now in 12 months they'll flog reed, jwp and targett if there's any interest.

They get to roll in money like hogs in heaven. They clearly don't care about anything else.

So now we have chance to to take their highly mediocre cast off and help develop them too. Will this joke ever stop giving

Asset stripping, farming. Pick a word not good either way.

I see it as option 2. Pretty dispiriting as a fan to see the talk about ambition was just lies to keep people whilst they sell anything they can get a big fee for.

Strange he normally comes out during nightmares.

Under an owner with ambition we'd keep them for a few years. This new approach, why don't we just rebrand ourselves Liverpool B and be done with it.

Kelly was very promising before his injuries. Don't see logic in selling chambers since we've no financial need though.

Really can't tell if its Les or Kat. If the order from on high is asset strip then what can worker bees do but comply. If Les thinks selling all our players is the route to success then yes he's a deluded madman.

Sold in 2 weeks time probably. Come on he's played in the premier league, you can't expect us to be able to retain him

Yep i so wanted to believe Cortese leaving wasn't the terrible portent of the summer we're experiencing.

Till January at this rate.

Can't Saints offer them a few more players to sweeten the deal. Saints don't need any players anymore as we're entering a 5 a side league.

Chambers pulled a sickie to get his dream move to the Arsenal bench whilst Reed and Co wallowed in a vat of money like hugs in mud.

Preparing Mccarthy for the glorious moment we sell him after he's played 5 games. Woo HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Crettinous comments trying to justify selling a great young player. You'd forget the amount of wonga they ******** had already pocketed.

Tell them to **** *** and stick any bid in the bin. That shouldn't require much discussion.

Getting into Europe via fair play league maybe.

Yeah very worried she sees it as a new little earner selling all these renewable academy products. Hope i'm wrong or if not hope someone buys her out quick before things go down the toilet completely.

I'd really like the words 'not for sale' to be uttered by saints. Apparently they aren't in our vocab.

Disgraceful if true. We shouldn't be considering selling him, let alone for the joke quoted fee.

Really there can't be any truth to stories about us selling our star young right back can there? That's without even bothering about the pittance fees being quoted. Sales have tested my faith in board's ability to say no.

I'd disagree it got us up to 8th in the league and plenty of games we won because we kept hold of the ball. Our failure to take chances was an issue as was our lack of depth and later in season lack of strikers.
