Apparently they're doing a feature about us at 7:30 just before the game, featuring Carlos: https://twitter.com/RussTaylorSky/statu ... 1402821635

Look forward to seeing that, seems Carlos stock is rising in all departments
If his development continues at the rate it's going, doors will be flung open and who knows just how far his talent might take him?
Just happy I've been able to see a star in the making.

As and when, as he surely will, leave to go to a higher league club then I hope that we do not 'give him away' for a ridiculously low price.

Anything less than a figure approaching a million in todays inflated prices would be selling us short but such a raw talent is worth that kind of money despite the current crisis in football. Clubs in both the Premiership and Championship are more than able to afford a figure close to £million so lets not do ourselves out of a potential wind fall like we did with a couple of players of late.

Let’s just hope Carlos doesn’t win our player of the season, with that curse we always have!

Let’s just hope we can tie him down to a couple more years under contract because at the moment, he’s set to run out of contract this summer and if he joins another club, we’ll only be entitled to minor compensation.

Let's be thankful that we've at last got a manager who rates him otherwise he could have left and gone to another club who could benefit from his inevitable sale.

With the current financial situation, let's just hope that we are not in the same position as when we had to sell Tom Barky ! !

You don't have to spell that one out to me or the importance of a fair sell on clause,
One player immediately springs to mind and that's James Tarkowski,
Brentford played a blinder in getting him for peanuts, pocketing a massive profit from his 5 million pound sale to Burnley and having a good sell on fee as part of the deal, for when he leaves for 20 odd million or more.

everyone we sell seems to be for a undisclosed fee - WHY ?
