PASE players??

[Guest]

Does anyone know if we are keeping any PASE lads to go full time with us next season? because the scheme has been going for a few years now but not really to any success. We have had players involved mostly Luke Moore and Sam Groombridge since Daish has took charge but also Roberts and Harris (sorry dont know first names)were invovled under Andy Ford. Just wandering if these will go full time aswell??? Reply appreciated.

Would defo like to see more of Groombridge and more next season. Personally ain't seen much of them as I don't go to reserve games but when they have played they've impressed me.

There certainly has been a lack of PASE talent breaking into the first team in recent years. Jamie Coyle springs to mind (correct me, someone, if I'm wrong) but not too many others.

Coyle's Conference ability was questionable. Away at Halifax springs to mind.

Moore and Groombridge appear to be the best of the PASE team for a long while.

I actually think that unless the club makes money from the PASE scheme through subsidies, govt incentives etc etc then we should do away with it simply because the best clubs in london, gillingham always pick up the best players at a young age. We are putting PASE players through the scheme at the moment to play one division above Kent league as thats where they are good enough to play. Its a tall order to find someone who hasnt been already picked up by a club to play Nationwide Conference football.
