Joe Day , Dan Butler, Andrew Hughes ,Conor Washington, Aaron Collins, Lee Evans , Regan Poole , Padraig Amond , Mark Byrne, Danny McNamara and Alex Gilbey.
That is actually a very good team and does not include Dale Gordon , Lewis Collins or Tristan Abrahams, but let’s concentrate on the couple that have not come off .
You do realise that many of the players you list came through the youth ranks don't you and didn't sign up to the Agency until the clubs offered them a pro deal ??
A Hughes , A Collins , L Evans , R Poole and L Collins were at the club before joining Elite Management as far as I am aware.Wasnt it about the time when MF was involved in the youth set up...Did any of them consider another Agency or did they sign because of his recommendation ? Was he on commission for every one that joined them ???
J Day , A Gilbey , D Gordon and D McNamara were short term loans from other clubs trying to lighten their wage bills or send a youth team player out for experience.
Amond and Byrne were looking for a club when Hartlepool and Barnet were relegated as they wanted to stay in the league . we offered them two year deals which were probably the best deals they were offered at the time
Washington was a punt on a parks player by J E that worked.
Not really a sound argument when you look into how good the deal we had with Elite
