I'm with Nobby, players don't dictate to the coach where they play, they play where they are told to.
However, there's no doubting Pryce is a HB, and we produced him.
Deacs played 4 pocsi games for Oldham, and developed his talents in the Bulls academy, therefore he's a Bulls product according to the rules of the game. |

what a load of tosh.
The analogy between our inability to fund good quality signings, and Arsenals supposed operating model is frankly ridiculous.
[iIf[/i we had the money, [iif[/i we could attract star players , we would. To suggest otherwise is disingenuous at the very best.
In RL for many different reasons you can on longer buy teams in the way football teams can.
This feels like someone is dressing up a poo sandwich and telling me it's steak.
If our current state of affairs is a result of a strategic plan, then those responsible should be sacked for incompetence.

When you're a Bradford fan there's always a light at the end of the tunnel.

We weren't going to be as crass as to mention that point. But as you have raised it. Under UEFA rules I believe that almost all of Arsenal's 1st team counts as homegrown. |

Oh ye of short memories...
In 2004 L. Pryce was named 15 times at starting No 6. He didn't really stand out in any of them, which is possibly why the club sought the services of one Mr I. Harris who was No 6 for the 19th game of the season. |

I think TM was referring to proven, quality half-backs, who have established themself in SL. |

I actually thought that Pryce was just starting to get to grips with the role when we signed Iestyn.
Pryce's problem was that, when other budding half backs were learning the role in academy and reserve teams, he was playing for the first team on the wing. It would be interesting to know the total number of games (at all levels) that he had played as a half back when we signed Iestyn, compared to say Danny Maguire. |

If Stan Kronke, who I believe is Arsenals leading shareholder, was to take the Bulls into the KSE group, our prayers would be answered.
