Apparently Bo$tock got alot of grief from the Arsenal fans last night - they were singing "You money grabbing b@$£@rd" to him and his reputation is now set in stone. Time to put that light back under the bushel Johnny boy!

Are there other examples of thing this of thing where a youngster gets snapped up elsewhere? Defoe was at Charlton was he not? |

Taiwo and Woods both went to Chelsea and Rose ended up at Tottenham. Leeds got around 4 mil in total for them which is no-where near what they were worth. The injustice is because these players haven't furfilled their potential (it's hard to when you're rotting in the Chelsea/Spuds reserves,) you could say the 4 mil Leeds got was a good deal, when infact, it's Chelsea and Spuds who have f*cked up these players careers, yet Leeds have to pay the price for the bigger club's incompetance. And what was the outcome of the compaint Leeds made to the FA of the illegal tapping up of their players? It ended in an FA tribunal that judged that 2 financially affluent clubs should pay Leeds pittance for three players worth millions each. Chelsea and Spurs must be laughing. And yes, I believe Defoe was originally at Charlton. Last edited by Dingle; 07-03-2009 at 01:10 PM. |

Reading the Arsenal website, have they forgotten how they went about acquiring Jermaine Pennant. They have short memories.

After years of buying kids from abroad Wenger has finally started to produce what should be good English talent.....Lansbury, Wiltshere etc to add to the European team they have. As much as I don't agree with how they have gone about it, you can understand that getting Fabregas for around a million can't be bad business as if and when he goes, it will be for a massive profit. I think more criticism is aimed at Spuds and also Chavski as they are managing to ruin a lot of young English players' careers. |

Jacob Mellis went to Chelsea from Sheff Utd as well and has amouned to nothing.
As for Bostock if he wanted to come back, id welcome him without a shadow of doubt. Give someone a second chance if they realised they made a mistake....plus he is an awesome player |

This was obviously a very high profile case, but doesn't this sort of thing happen all the time?
I can't think of many off the top of my head, but Micah Richards was one who was 'plucked' from Oldham at about age 13 for just a 20% sell on clause or something.

I find Dingle's signature with the quotes embedded in it more annoying than Johnny Bostock.
