The one where they get sold before being given a proper chance? or The one where they’re played out of potion? When was the last time we had a player come through the ranks, play his position - and get sold for more money due to first team appearances? Edmundson? Before that? We hardly ever see the academy bear fruit in the way it should, and when we do they’re not trusted/play out of position, or go before we can really bring them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't really have to try that hard to see there's some decent options out there. We can turn this around. Darren Moore favourite for the Huddersfield job. Which does free up Colin...

Did seem to get a reputation of collecting older players by the end at Tranmere though so would that fit with the emphasis on the Academy that we have/had? What emphasis on the Academy?

Wasn't it one of the objectives when the new owners came in, make better use of it, self sustaining etc? Apologies if I've got that wrong.

Apologies if I've got that wrong. You haven’t got it wrong sir but they’ve only had the keys to the club for 12 months. Take comfort that they’ve brought in Muzza and Chuck to oversea the academy. Have patience and stop apologising, you are hardly ever wrong. Edited September 18, 2023 by Lukers1 . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
League one forever Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Just watched Thompson’s presser- didn’t know he was from Oldham. If he does well, I can see the club giving him serious thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tGWB Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Its really simple this We must recruit someone who has done something our club has not done for over 30 years A Manager that has actually won something, preferably a promotion Nothing else will be good enough Getting drawn into the nostalgia of previous players managing or giving someone their first chance in management is one of the reasons why we continue to fail 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
