Because of the idiots who are running the club that's why.

   Nothing to do with the "idiots" as you put it. It's the regulations that every club in the land have to abide by. FIFA ruling is that young players can move abroad for a maximum of £235,000 and that's it. If they move within their own country the fee will be set by a tribunal ala' Morgan Rogers to Man City last year, where the "undisclosed fee" was reported to be around £4m.

While I share your worries about our form at the moment, don't blame the "idiots" for things that they can have absolutely no control over. At the moment - if it snowed - it'd be down to our board and chairman

I'm sorry but I believe it's exactly because of the people running the club.
You have misunderstood where I am coming from - the club has not convinced the leavers this is the place to be, the making DM manager and sacking him had a massive effect on everything the club stands for. Academy staff jumping ship, etc, etc This is why we are loosing our youngters. They don't see us as a family club - the regulations just let them leave IF THEY WANT TO, but it's the "why they are leaving" it's not simply money - hence I hold the people running the club responsible. It's certainly not the rules.

We'll have to agree to disagree, in my opinion it is simply the money. We'll never compete with the Chelsea's, Man City's or Barcelona's of this world when it comes to wages, bonuses or lucrative contracts they give to the likes of Brown, Rogers or Barry. Nathan Ferguson will be the next, he can earn more money in one move than some players make in a career. Most of these players will barely play a competitive game for their "big" clubs but would rather fester there in the under 23's or sit on the bench in cup games than play regular football at clubs like the Albion. Sadly that's an indictment of modern days younger players, nothing to do with being a "family club". Greedy players, agents and more alarmingly the parents of these players love money more than any club
