It hasn't worked with four successive managers and countless player attempts.


    I don't see a way ahead unless we go back to Wee Jim's early days at the Club. Bringing on our own young players alongside some seasoned pros. It will take a few years to bring about, so meantime get used to where we are and what we are. Oh' and ST must go to before we can kick start our Club again!
    Bang on about our recent signing policy but unfortunately we really need a big investment in youth to do that as we’ve proved in recent years when there’s the First sign of a real player showing through you barely get half a season before the kids heads are turned by the money on the table elsewhere and they are off.

    If the chairman’s business plan aligns with that we’re double goosed.

    It needs to be a big conveyor belt of talent coming through to keep it going......ours ran dry .......see previous many posts re S Campbell esq. for when.
