Sam rescues a point with an injury time equaliser for 10 man Leamington tonight v Fylde. Is that 5 goals in the last 4 games for the lad?

5 in last 3 mate.

Doing well so far like Colby Bishop scoring at Accy too.

Like Ozzy, there has been many talented young players allowed to leave the club, because the
manager(s) haven't had the balls to give them time to develop. We should stop having to rely on over the hill stop gap players and plan for the future with our own home grown players..

A bold statement? No, simply an observation. I've no knowledge of the players there at that time but I strongly suspect that if he hadn't been doing a good job he'd have been replaced much more quickly in the modern game. You may have noticed how quickly results are expected at all levels nowadays. To counter, could you let me know of all the failures he had there? Probably not.

you said he was a success I asked you to qualify it ,
I'm not sure how you would qualify him being successful ,the length of time in a job for the boys isn't really success in my eyes.
The number of quality players produced for his club certainly is .
Where did I say he was a failure ? so why would I need to qualify it ?
you made the statement or observation , I would hope you could back it up when asked about it, which so far you haven't.
All I see is an attempt of diversion.

Ah I'm so sorry you don't understand Pedro dear boy. All I was expressing is that it would be surprising to me if he was against using youth players if he considered them up to the job.

Trust me I don't have the mental investment in this ever more toxic forum to even attempt a diversion. It really isn't worth the effort, it's just a football messageboard - well it used to be anyway.

your original quote was
He held the job for about 5 years successfully. I'd suggest that would at least make him an experienced judge of a young player's ability and potential.

saying he was successful, hence he was able to judge a young players ability.
what if he wasn't successful and has no credibility when it comes to youth team players ?
I don't know if he was or wasn't but you have said he was.
Like I say I only asked you a simple question to qualify your faith in Ardleys ability.
You seem to have gone from nailed on successful to surprising if he wasn't.
yes it is a football message board.

For the sake of us decent posters, can you two take these petty squabbles to the handbags room?

Sorry Swale, I couldn't resist! I really don't envy you your job, but it's not really toxic. It's just that some take it a bit too seriously.
