Its a shame that premiership clubs could not contribute to the cost of the running of academy's from the lower leagues as they will be the ones to benefit eventually from the top players are produced.I also agree that if a top club wants to loan out a player to a lower league club they should contribute to most of the wage of that player. What reason do the top clubs loan out for. They cannot offer first team football and want to see the player develop through league games which they cannot offer. They source clubs that will offer the right kind of coaching and play football the way there club want it played .The lower league club will take a player on who should be more advanced than players they have but this then restricts there own youth players development. The loanee may improve the performance of the team he plays for but he can be recalled at short notice to his home club subject to the loan agreement
