Kieran Westwood is at Sunderland, though he hasn't played for them yet.

That team would be relegated by january.

Is it any worse than QPR's team and they're doing well. A lot would depend on how the team is managed but its surprisingly well balanced.

Hennesey wasn't a City graduate.

It'd be left with richards, swp, barton and sturridge trying to carry the team, the rest are championship/bottom 5 of premier league standard, and yes that includes ireland.

Hennessy didn't play for the first team, yes, but I'm pretty sure he spent significant time at the club during his teens, a few years.

Another keeper who never made an appearance but is also on the books of a Prem club is Brian Murphy of QPR, who was on the bench on many occasions for City, but never managed an appearance. This was during the KK years - was on the bench a lot during the 01-02 campaign.

I'd love to see a full list of academy graduates and what's happened to them.

Jamie 'clueless' Redknapp could only name one or two the other day as our new plans were announced, as if our academy wasn't bringing through many quality players...clueless.<br /><br />-- Mon Sep 26, 2011 12:04 am --<br /><br />Oops just found it:

Hennessey (Wolves & Wales)
Mears (Bolton & Jamaica)
Boyata (Bolton & Belgium)
Onuoha (England U21)
Richards (England)
SWP (QPR & England)
Ireland (Villa & Ireland)
Etuhu (Fulham & Nigeria)
Whelan (Stoke & Ireland)
Barton (QPR & England)
Sturridge (Chelsea & England U21)

apart from Tyrone Mears who has a broken leg and Superman who has a broken head, the rest are regular first teamers in the Premier League (Ned should be at Everton) and internationals to boot - mid table or better I'd say.

And that, in a nutshell is why Cassell lost his job.
