Youngsters with potential all over the world have always been gobbled up by higher league teams, and always will be. And I wouldn't get your hopes up about enough people moaning for it to be changed, none of the football authorities anywhere give a toss, they never do, or will.

You're joking, the epp thing has made things worse than ever and was so close to being rejected by the football league, clubs there are shutting down academies in protest and a lot of it is to do with the advice young players are given, they might earn 10k a week but it's undeniable that they'd develop better playing competitively against men week in week out instead of getting lost in a big clubs development squad, the pfa should represent kids not agents, they're not old enough to sign a pro contract then they don't need an agent. You don't think west brom paid a fee for lukalu a couple of seasons back for instance?

Another door slams in Winston Reid's face, he'll end up with spuds if he isn't careful
