    The Youth Academy category three.

    Following the youth teams success, the paper let slip that the youth system is now category three.

    Its not long ago that the club were bragging about having a category one rating, and getting paid a million quid by the FA for having a top rating.

    That funding must have been ring fenced rather than just being paid into a bank account, there is no explanation otherwise.

    I had to look up what category three is, oh, its its about saving money and having less staff, coaches. Rochdale have a category three rating, so you can see how poor it is.

    The only reason United exists is for the football.

    As with all socialist movements, movements is the right word, the prime goal, no pun intended, in this case winning games of football, gets the lowest rating of importance.

    And all else gets showers of cash.

    Those people cant see it though, because their madness takes precedent.

    The bottom line is that Paul Barry is deluded, dancing to a tune no one hears. Oh, there is that feel good factor in giving away money, then all else suffers.

    Like the academy. No more Morrisons Gary Rowetts, etc coming through there.

    Who can argue with the above? Money is the viscosity that runs everything, without it your fekkered. Giving it away, are you serious?

    Absolutely barking. And as for those lads, they are low quality, first teamers indeed, for Gorleston, Tiptree and Gothic.

    Maybe not Gothic, remember them? United will go the same way.

    You should be going down to the Abbey Frank and supporting Utd in their time of need after supporting the U's for decades,looking at the table it's not good but it's not over and done with yet,any club from the bottom 17 down could get drawn in the relegation battle,BDB supports Rochdale who are the bottom club in league 2 and refuses to go down until things change,this sounds very much like you,when Carlisle was in the bottom two last season and looked grim I honestly can't remember Griff n co saying that they wasn't going anymore but got behind their team even if they didn't like the owners and look where they are now
