If I may please...I tend to think of the old days..LOL and we have to remember that Div1 we play in is actually the third division and I suggest that we should be able to be able to exist in this league season after season and not Div4 and so I cannot see why we cannot have an academy that local youths (Not kids) can come and play games and at the same time have some coming into the first team but perhaps about a third and no more because the ambition of the club was to have the whole first team from the academy and that is not practical although noble...Its no accident that the more players we have had this season from the academy in the team, the worst we have had results because most other teams throughout football actually have wordly wise athletes in them.
