Hey Don,

When you say you "don't buy the fact it was necessary at the time" that intrigues me , what do you base that statement on? Had you seen the books or know someone who had seen the balance sheets during that time?

I have no knowledge of the annual cost of running the youth academy nor the grants received back then but I was told first hand from someone who knew the details of Notts finances just how dire the situation was and why such a drastic cost cutting decision was taken to end the programme.

I didn't agree with it, I still don't but desperate times means desperate measures.
