Im a touch concerned that the leadership had agreed a contract extension for CC to then turn around and sack him..

Well, "leadership" and chezzy had been working together for a few years, I would be surprised if they couldn't say their relationship was quite a bit more than a purely commercial enterprise.
Through thick and thin, not burning any bridges, sweetening a bitter pill, golden handshake, however you want to justify it I don't begrudge that kind of termination tbh.
Better to part on good terms and all that.

Which others have slipped through the net?

I think he means in general not specifically Trinity or not in recent years.

All clubs let players slip through, Reece Lyne a perfect example, it happens.

However it doesn’t happen very often. I’m a huge fan of bringing young players through and have been genuinely upset in the past when we’ve let some go. Yet in all that time the grand total of those who proved the coaching staff wrong is from memory, zero. I can’t think of one player we let go who’s made there way back.

There are a few who made it after leaving us but all under unusual circumstances. Brough got himself sacked whilst players like Eden basically played the feel.

Sad though it is the coaching staff, whoever they are, rarely get it wrong with youngsters. My only gripe is some of the crud we have taken in from Oz who were no better but seemed to get treated with kid gloves, that has to stop and I think at Trinity it has.

I agree with you. However the poster said 'slip through the net AGAIN?'

In the last 6/7 years I can only think of one player who has left us and gone on to better things - Paul macShane

Personally I wouldn't call Paul McShane move to Cas as slipping through the net.

Not really the same though. McShane is one that Leeds let slip through the net.

Not saying he’s coming to us but he’s apparently had to move back to Yorkshire as his lease on a house (Rented off Joel Tomkins ) has come to an end. He’s apparently struggling with the M62 travel.
