Exactly. He stood out in a team shockingly low on confidence. That"s not hard to do. He blows hot and cold.

Good website fullcontactlaw which gives examples of likely compensation if Brad does sign for Crewe. Could get upwards of £100,000 provided he was offered similar contract as previous. Now see why talking up length of time at Pools, number of appearances and interest from other clubs all help increase it if cannot agree fee.

Could that result in a young player not having a club as no one wants to pay the compensation?

Compensation will be peanuts won't it due to the categories in youth systems?

If Crewe is the best he could get it doesn't say that much for him. Let's be honest Crewe are little better than Pools if any better.

It'll be interesting to see how it turns out.

I genuinely wish the lad well and hope he does well.

Sad to see him leave but clearly needs the change.

I agree with the above basically.
