I saw an article with quotes from their manager at the time and he says Bradley is a brilliant footballer and McAllister has a good attitude and tries hard. I'm paraphrasing but that was the gist of it and I just think it goes a long way to explaining things that we just don't get the better players in at those younger ages people focus on what we're producing for the top level but if the players aren't there to begin with its hard.

Let’s face it , in the past 10 years we’ve only had 3 players come through our Academy from 16 and play 50 games for us , Kenny, Davies, Gordon . Roughly 100 players , so a 3% success rate. Sadly for this thread it’s easier to say “ they’re all crap , none will make it” , you’ll be right 97 % of the time.
