I don't think we've made a mistake. Can only base our decision on what he's done during his time with us and quite honestly I can't remember a single game where he's had any real impact. It's down to a number of factors but we have to start being more brutal with our academy "prospects" if we want to compete at the top end on an ongoing basis. That's professional sport.
And the fact is he's going to Coventry - not a Prem side. Good for him, as he can hopefully get a run of games as Fursty mentions and maybe get himself another Prem contract in the future. And, selfishly, good for us too - if it does turn out to be a mistake then he won't be playing against us! And we get the (small amount of) cap space to spend on someone who it is deemed by Gussy can make more impact for us now in our push to become more of a force. Good business all round.
