[Washington]

Dave's just confirming what we already knew about Coco Wash. Picked his favourites, square pegs, round holes etc   That's why we've lost young George amongst others  

Agree about the first team favourites Maddix but not sure the Hirst thing is all down to CC.
By all accounts he's been offered the best money deal ever by SWFC for a young player, a loan plan opportunity to toughen up etc. But, when he's been mixing it with the PL members of the England U18/19s who probably have a new Porsche and he's in a used Mini you know how (we were one's once) easy teenage boys can be swayed along with an agent who wants a cut and a dad who's burned bridges with the owner.

Fortunately some of the other lads seem to have more loyalty to the club and their U 18/23 coaching staff. With first team injuries they have seen the opportunity to step up and have not done too badly under the guidance of Jos and the senior players. Hopefully that will help us with FFP too as we build to our next promotion challenge.

All we can hope for is that our hard work with GH is rewarded by suitable sell on fee share clause if and when he becomes the star that a lot of us believe he might become.
