Players out of contract on 12:07 - May 1 with 4409 views | Esox_Lucius | Joe Felix has been unhappy at the club and been looking for another club for a while now. I am surprised about Ali Omar though, I think he is a decent player. Chay Tilt is another I am disappointed is leaving as he showed a lot of promise last season but seems to have lost his way this season. [Post edited 1 May 2019 12:09]

Right midfielder Chay Tilt was excellent in the 2017-2018 season. This season he hasn't impressed . I believe he got into trouble early in the season at an away game when he got into a row/fight with our keeper after we conceded a goal. Both got yellow carded. He missed the next game as he was banned from the training ground apparently. He did rejoin the fold but his performances were not at the standards he'd set the year before. He appeared to be going through the motions for the last 4 months , maybe he knew he was leaving ??? Central defender Charlie Fox was a great prospect when he was in the under 18s. In 2017-18 he played 22 times for the under 23s, this season he has made 6 appearances. That's probably down to what Paul Hall sees on a daily basis at Harlington. We also have a ready made replacement in 18 year old centre back Joe Gubbins who made a few starts for the u23s at the end of the season. Right back Joe Felix had a great season up until Christmas , since then he has hardly played, gone out on loan/work experience whatever....... All three I really rated but it appears it wasn't to be. Good luck to all 3 wherever they end up. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Not many spring to mind at the age group we're talking about. Mepham wasn't signed after a trial but that was at 15. Harvey Elliott at Fulham (very highly rated, made his debut last season at 15) was formerly on our books but I don't know if he was poached or released. I think McIntyre's point - probably a harsh one - is that the club (and the management group we're pinning our hopes on) needs a consistent production line to survive and this number of released suggests there'll be a gap in that now, and possibly indicate that errors have been made. There actually aren't that many clubs that can claim to have new first team contenders every year though. You get good crops that stick in the memory (West Ham, Southampton, Spurs) and provoke envious eyes at the infrastructures that produced them but they never end up maintaining that level year on year. I'm particularly surprised about Felix but there will be plenty released elsewhere to replace them with over the summer. (Spurs have yet to offer contracts to Jack Roles and Marcus Edwards for instance, I wonder if we're looking at them). | ![](/images/avatars/6250.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Isn't he a right sided attacking player? If so, we have too many of them now, so perfectly logical for him to go I would have thought. Of course all those criticising the club and Les and others like myself expressing an opinion, can't really talk with any authority unless they/we watch the U23s regularly, which I for one don't. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

tilt was out of contract at the end of the year, so we wouldnt have been able to sell him anyways its bizarre bc the club has just given shodipo (who was also out of contract) an extension.... yet tilt, who is leaving, got a bench spot over shodipo against blackburn, hardly 10 days ago [Post edited 1 May 2019 16:07]

Unfortunately this sort of thing has been going on for years. After sitting on the bench in a Football Combination game at The Den way back in 1968, I got home to find a letter from the club informing me that my trial period had been terminated. It read as if I had been on trial for a week - but I'd been playing for Millwall in the South -East Counties League for just over eighteen months! | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Yep, U23’s are not effected by FFP, David Mac is a tool, youth players are released every year by clubs, other than Tilt, no surprises, we will have around 7/8 youth players in the first team squad next season at least 4 will feature regularly, that’s progress. Additionally a few will emerge like Gubbins, the polish keeper, Bettache, Domi, Cowley and hopefully DeSilva, Carlyle and a couple of fullbacks who’s names escapes me, too add to the list, the youth set up is the one part of the club that’s running correctly! | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
