I haven't said that. I do think the process of development takes too long. I was listening to some ex-players on the subject a while ago, their take was that if it takes until 23 it doesn't matter because a player earns so much money now. True at the highest level, but not so if the player in question ends up in L2 or below.ClaretTony wrote:So we've brought a young lad into the club from nowhere, progressed him over three years, seen him develop but because he's 20 and not in the first team you think we should ditch him, not only ditch him but you think it is our duty to find him another club. I think player development might have passed you by.
We have a young player who, it seems, is progressing very well. I imagine he would like a shot at first team football.
