LO'N "A feather in the academy's cap" 17:15 - Feb 11 with 511 views | Cheltenham_Blue | "That Premier league clubs are eyeing youngsters". Remember the good old days when we were producing players to improve our own team and then we sold them at huge profits and invested that income in quality players? You know, before Evans? Now we produce players to sell. Where's the hands off warning instead of the girly excitement that our academy is being watched. Our lord and saviours five point plan ladies and gentlemen, a five point plan with no aims, except to sell players. [Post edited 11 Feb 2021 17:18]

Which is why it is important to get them signed up to contracts as soon as possible - something that we are doing pretty diligently to be fair. |  |

Yep, but not much can be done if the big boys come in early for the likes of Knight, Brown and Flores. |  |
