Correct Gazza and I would think most of the premier league sides will link in with foreign clubs to develop younger players (or steal?)

No CIFC are looking at a different approach which could be a positive alternative

The more money the top sides get the less they are prepared to allow to trickle down

Peersonally I think that is wrong (then again I think the inflated wages these people earn for kicking the damn thing around is wrong...come on, it's a game).

 

If we wanna be World beaters as nation then surely a radical change to how we develop young players (and the game) has to go through a radical change.

 

Wot harm is there in a league side linking up with the top Non League sides and helping them develop local talent. Yes it would take organising on a national level but don't we wanna be top nation? Oh, this involves all those so called "top" teams to move away from self interest and look at the game on a wider scale...Sorry, I forgot, they can't do that...

 

I think that our new manager's (if the newspapers are right and he delivers) idea to develop local talent and put in a youth policy is defenately a step in the right direction for the long term future for the club, as long as no one at the club "mugs" off the people that run the teams, like wot was reported to happen a couple of season ago.
