Article on the bbc website includes this:
David Regis, brother of Cyril and the head of education at Charlton, had brought down five of his youngsters that had been released. He wanted to make their sure they got there OK and to provide support and encouragement. For Regis, who himself did not enter the professional ranks until his mid-20s, telling young players that they will not be retained is the hardest part of his job and he wanted to do the best he could for those he had let go.
