    Good luck to all three, it’s a tough profession with a high rejection rate

    And I think that the Manager’s son has to work twice as hard to prove himself.

    I don’t believe it’s nepotism. I don’t think Warney is like that.

    Some believe Sir Alex Ferguson to be the best manager ever and he made sure his son played just enough games to get a premier league medal and recalled all his loanees when Peterborough sacked their Darren.

    Think Warney would have took a bit of a back seat and let others look into first, definitely no favouritism imo but some will think that so yes Mack will certainly have to work harder, might a good thing though.

    I took Flour’s comment has a bit of a joke tbh but it’s the other coaches that might favourite him because he’s Warney’s son

    My comment was indeed light hearted
    I read somewhere that PW leaves the decisions regarding academy sides to his staff and he said he hadn't seen him play much at all due to workload. I think it was around the time he came on vs Man City U23

    It's very rarely that I criticise PW largely due to if he does make an error he corrects it almost immediately so I don't see the point. The PJ T was a prime example
