So I haven’t criticised Biamou or Kelly then?

At the minute yes, so would I. But long term as we know he won’t cut it.

So on that basis then we stand still or go backwards like last season when we had half a team made up of Academy players-and, oh yes, they were not good enough and we ended up getting relegated. Not just them though.

I couldn’t care less if they are on loan, from the Academy or from Mars as long as they do the business on the pitch.

But as a consequence the thing that matters-results on the pitch-deteriorate and the slide goes on.

Correct-I have said it’s not the Academy players fault it’s the owners that is the reason we are where we are.

Burge and Willis if we go up as was proved last season in L1. Vincenti,Kelly,Shipley and Biamou aswell not good enough.

If we are relying on it (which it seems we are) to take us forward as a club and aim higher then yes. We need more of a balance and not let the first team be “an experiment” for academy players to sink or swim.

No my gripe is putting them in too frequently and in numbers and the results on the pitch then suffer.

Isn’t that what I said previously? Young players having to step up but are not good enough to make that step?

So having a good academy is the be all and end all? Let's forget about results on the pitch then.

Tried to explain it. But we throw too many in at the same time-as a consequence results on the pitch suffer and we find ourselves where we are now.

Correct. Now can you please explain why we find ourselves in the bottom tier?

So you agree then that they are not up to the job if we want to progress and this being the point. Some people it seems are happy with not progressing by all accounts?

Yes. Do we want to progress though? If we do we know the likes of Burge/Haynes etc are not good enough at a higher level.

Who knows? Probably not. I'm not sure people understand my point really ref academy players etc. Let me explain. The reason we are in the bottom tier is a combination of 2 things, 1-The owners who are not interested in a speculate to accumulate policy and budget wise leads to an inferior team on...

Which is why I keep banging the drum. Why did we persist with him (and lots of others) when they were obviously not up to the job in previous seasons/higher levels? The “experiment” to see if players can make the step up is a major factor why we are now in the bottom tier. This is not the...
