And there was me thinking that one of the academy's purposes - that we as a fanbase constantly criticise for it not doing enough of - is to develop players who can be sold for top money so that it can be reinvested in better players.
Perhaps it's preferable for clubs to buy our crap youth...
I like the idea of the third kit having a different badge and would even go as far as saying that the third kit could become a 'pilot kit' in which designers come up with new and interesting design ideas outside of traditional norms. If the objective of the third kit is to help maximise revenue...
Going back to my stuff - the last guys I produced were a Jamaican duo called Chakademus and Pliers. That gig put me off for life. I literally had to have protection in the studio because of a bit of a flare up about money, rights and credits. The whole thing was surreal and was the straw that...

8 times a week eh. Well done mate, honestly, it sounds tough. Sounds like you made it to the other side ok though!
Nice one. Does sound like a lot of fun. Always come across well on stage.
