Hearing that Luca Hoole wants to leave and is obviously out of contract, so best wishes always gave 100 %. Off to Newport I reckon. Shame if he does go ..... Think he could play Championship football one day - needs proper coaching as an effective right back.

Said it many times ,I think Rovers record of giving youth/development squad players a decent chance to prosper is appalling, i know some on here shout that if they are good enough they should be setting their loans clubs league alight with MOM performances every week, I maintain that good players need other good players alongside them in order to show their real potential, several have shown up very well in pre season friendlies and that's as near as they get to the first team, but playing devils advocate, how many posters rated the Liverpool lad when he was here ? he had plenty of detractors on here , did Liverpool fans spout 'if he aint good enough for Bristol Rovers then he certainly aint good enough for us? yet here he is in playing in a then title chasing Liverpool team. IT will indeed be very disappointing if Greenslade is not given a chance.

Would keep Luca, but he needs game time. Personally I’d loan him out to L2 or Cambridge/someone lower L1 Ala Gibbons

I may be wrong but I remember pirate saying our conversion rate is actually quite poor, it's been slightly fogged by the fact we've had a few put 100+ appearances in (Lockyer, Clarke, Harrison, Lines, Hoole etc).

A few years ago Training Ground Guru site did a productivity study. The rankings are the only publicly-available resource of their kind and rank Academies from Categories One to Three based on the number of England-qualified graduates who made at least one league appearance in the Premier League, Football League or National League in the 2021/22 season. Bristol Rovers ranked 75th best out of 80 clubs.

It's interesting because that's "at least one appearances", it's a shame it's not aggregate. I surmise we'd actually not be too bad!

IT will indeed be very disappointing if Greenslade is not given a chance. Totally agree with all of this, point in case is Harvey Vale, Chelsea hopeful on ÂŁ27 k a year, how many times was he man of the match and how many goals did he score when playing in advanced positions? he should have been tearing this league up! and yes the same for Jarell Quansah, with good players around him his game is totally different. I follow Greenslade and others on Twitter and the support for him not just at Rovers but from his former Loan Clubs is amazing all saying how hard he works and that they all wish he could stay but it looks like he, along with Jones and Hoole could be on their way. I think its a sad state of affairs when we cant nurture this talent on and yes start moving these players on for a small fee instead of on a free. But when your youngest pros are going I would read that our 21's /23's development side wont be happening time soon!

I’d like us to employ Ukrainian former Russian international Rats in some capacity so that when he inevitably departs Bristol Live can use the headline “Rats leaves Rovers’ sinking ship”.

Any guesses when Isaac Vassell will be announced? I'm so excited.
