Case in point. Saturday's starting 11 had ONE player that has come through our development system - Considine, and another who came off the bench - MacLennan. Two players out of 14 is a helluva indictment on AFC's youth policy, when you compare it to Motherwell's, for example. How the hell can they churn them out, and how also is their scouting policy, both at development and senior level, MILES better than our's?
What was the target - half the team should be home developed? Or was it a third? Either way, we've failed miserably.
With our current midfield injury crisis, will we have development lads champing at the bit to get the shirts v Livvy this weekend? No chance, it will be Vyner shoe horned into midfield, Wilson as holding midfielder, etc etc
How much of that is down to Simmie/Sheerin, or how much of it is down to McInnes simply not being interested?
