Sloshed Joe Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I reckon Keith Curle would’ve been a good manager for Tom Hamer. Would’ve got him playing to his strengths and improved him defensively. Agreed he had a big dip in form coping with Kewell’s all out attack style, but a young home grown leader shouldn’t be sold off for peanuts like he was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In an ideal world, we'd have far more local lads in the team, atleast you'd be assured of them playing for the shirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latics22 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I struggle with the obsession with youth, it would be nice to role one off a season and make millions. But we're lucky to have one average one every ten years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShireBlue Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 The lack of reserve grade football means the gap between youth team and first team is too big. It’s a lot harder for the kids to break through without getting blooded against experienced pros in reserve games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't help that a lot of the non-league clubs we'd usually loan them to aren't playing at the moment, either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamer, Tarky, Emmerson, Edmndson all far better than average and didn't take 40 years to come through. lf l could be arsed l'd remember loads more, but you don't actually mean it and proving you wrong has become repetetively tedious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allegedly we got a wedge for him, though I'm doubtful it was as much as it says here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paweł_Żuk_(footballer,_born_2001) There's been a few other youth products who went on to Premier League clubs for fees but then didn't make it.

Stop fishing please Over the years there’s been several players the club has cashed in on whom have never even got to first team level but have made the club money.A 12 yr old was sold to Liverpool just a couple of months ago which has paid for running the new development group.Emmerson has just been selected for England u17,hardly doing nothing considering he’s 16 and tipped for a bright future.A decent sell on could potentially be a God send for a club in our position. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
