Can this be included in the thread? 😂😂😂

Patience is not something our club can afford Satan. If our directors and managers are happy then so be it but it is only prudent to review every part of our business regularly considering our financial situation.

I would just go it alone OCG and push hard to get our reserves in the SHFL. We don't have dozens of quality kids so let's concentrate on the ones with potential.

I think we would all prefer to see our home grown talent get a game but they have to be good enough to get into the squad in the first place and get the experience to help them stay there. That's where a Reserve team helps.

from what I hear PB costs are in the 6 figure bracket so 3 years is certainly long enough for the club to review everything and take the required action if it is not producing a return.

I agree. It has been running for years now and there is no evidence that it is any more successful in developing young players than what preceded it. If anything, the contrary seems to be the case.

Project Brave just created more jobs for the boys running it and doesn't improve the quality of the coaching the youngsters get.

I’m guessing it’s an age thing, but I love that sort of ground.

Sorry Satan I don't agree with you. Every kid needs a level up from playing in youth football before having a chance in the first team. We need a reserve team where they play with and against men, not an U18/U19 squad where there are kids ,who have no chance of making it. We seem to think numbers is a success but it's not, quality with potential is the answer. I don't blame our management for not giving some a chance but maybe next season he will have no option.

Jaggie . Its pretty simple. Did Charlie Christie get the transfer money or the club? Do we want to take football away from the poorest and give it to those who can afford it. Read a little about andy maclarens football charity and think about it.
