Good to see Joe gamble doing well at Reading. He started on saturday in the first team and has been called up by the U-21's. He's destined for big things i think

At 19 it looks like he's set for the top.....City couldnt get a sell on clause cause he wasnt even under contract at CCFC

if memory serves.....

I'm not sure how the whole FIFA/UEFA system was supposed to work or if was operational then but i think whether a player in contract or not clubs are entitled to a "development fee" for players under 24 transferred i think.....

i'm sure the club knew what they were doing though
