Ps I dont believe they are meant to be squad fillers. They are youngsters that have been identified to have the potential to become very good first team players with the correct coaching and time invested in them.Good enough to become not only first teamers but match winners that would be desired by others if their gamble and investment comes to fruition...x
Boom and bust isn't the only alternative outcome, you could boom and reap the rewards. That's the gamble.

The current owners are basically the equivalent of keeping possession and playing for the penalty shoot out, rather than trying to win in normal time. Yes, that might deliver the desired outcome, but you can't really blame sections of the crowd for getting frustrated and kicking off if they end up conceding a late goal to lose, or suffering the heartbreak of losing the shoot-out.

We have gone for it in the past and got knocked out, so I can see why many are favouring and accepting caution, but if that approach fails and keeps on failing then there will be an inevitable loss of patience and backlash. Going up under Williams wouldn't have entirely erased the memory of just how frustrating things got under Burch and Ardley.
