If we can nurture a player to become first team level then of course we need one less player, Robson being the current example of this.

i agree with TAs now deleted response having robson as our LB means we do need another LB

I'd argue we NEED another player to take Robsons place.😂

What I mean is, if we run with for example, a 26 man first team squad and a kid comes through the ranks, we wouldn't then run with a 25 man squad. We'd fill a position elsewhere that was required. We're always going to be paying the same amount of players. Not necessarily saving a wage because we've developed our own.

Yeah, I can't edit unless I change to Chrome and use that in desktop mode so I just delete and start again. Pain in the f*cking arse, especially when someone replies before I put up the new post. 😂😂😂

Jamie Robson is a very good player & I'm glad the manager agrees. And he'll get better yet too, Barry Douglas anyone?

Jamie has worked his ar5e off this season, left everything out there. He's had a few shaky games but he's had some good ones too. It disappoints me when I see the stick he gets when there are players in our midfield who can barely pass a football. Butcher Harkes Pawlett and Clark just to name 4, but no it's all Jamie Robsons fault.

Canny edit as it always deletes the post, but just to add that I'm not saying he's the long term solution at LB but there are plenty others who've done less well this season.
