Tbf I wouldn’t mind him back definitely has improved since leaving us, wouldn’t mind being in 2 new half’s
Most of the young players you either release or allow to go that are signed by other SL clubs do develop into better players. We have benefited and so have Wakey. I think you should be acknowledged as a feeder club.

I love you to name some names, in SL I can only think of maybe young players we have released that where mistakes, all 3 where to Rovers and 2 had circumstances.
I reckon only Litten was the wrong decision at the time

Whether they were the right decision at the time from FC’s point of view is irrelevant. The point is that other clubs were able to take your cast offs or releases and develop them into better players.

I’m not sure Jordan, Jez, and Dean have developed into better players, they look the same as when we had them, I suppose it depends on the perceived aspirations of the club they are at, for whatever reasons they were released or left, I wish all our ex players all the best, regardless who they play for, tough decisions need to be made regarding playing personal.
You’ve just been asked to name these players, let’s hear it.
In my opinion Reece Lynne has been one that has definitely improved into a fine centre, and good luck to the lad,

You could say that about most young kids who get released from all SL clubs.
Off the top of my head we improved: Raynor, Carvell, Dowes, Tickle, Shaun Briscoe, Tom Briscoe, Cator, Watts, Connor. Plus more
For every Josh Hodgson there are ten Callum Lancasters but the ones who don't make the grade after being released by definition rarely get mentioned more than the few that do.

Are you really that stupid, surely every player who get released at a young age will get better, Reece Dean is a better pllayer now than at Hull, but it doesnt make it a mistake.
The fact remains that only 3/4 players who will have released have gone onto to be decent SL players the rest (100's) havent made the grade.
As it stands only Hodgson, Litten and Abdul look like mistakes.

Sometimes players fit at a certain time when they come through at a club and sometimes they’re better going elsewhere to progress.
Joe Cator was much better going to Leigh than hanging around on the fringes at Rovers. If Rovers had tried to hold on to him just out of FOMO, that’d have done nobody any good. Maybe if both the city’s clubs produced more good SL players we wouldn’t have this miserly attitude (in some quarters) of being relieved that they don’t kick-on somewhere else. I’d be delighted to see some of the lads that have spent a year or two in the Championship get a second bite at SL. I hope George Lawler goes well for Cas, to the degree that I care about players that have gone at all.
