When SWP was transferred to Chelsea it was reported by City insiders that he was in tears but he had to go to save City from bankruptcy. When Allison sold Gary Owen in the 70's he left in tears, his dad himself told me that.
That is the sort of feelings that I want from our graduates, not the first pumping that some ex-players may resort to. I want our players to be with us because the club means so much to them, I don't want them just to use us as a stepping stone to personal glory, something where our development teams and match paying supporters see their work and their money going to waste.
