Not so long ago I remember the question being raised of whether we should take academies away from the clubs and centralize them as regional academies. The argument was that some big clubs could cherry pick the best whilst other academies acted as a seive. The suggestion was that the likes of Wigan and Leeds benefited at the expense of other clubs. Although a fair point it does not take into account the money and effort put into the game by the more successful clubs. providers
Like the parent club, success at academy level depends on being able to attract and hold onto the best. This often includes being able to offer a good standard of education and life training as well through links with outside providers. That way even players who do not make the grade have something to fall back on. All of this takes time and money. I certainly do not begrudge any club the chance to have first pick because without our best academies the whole system would need complete reorganisation but as others have suggested it is more complex than the original question suggests.
