Quote: rhinos21 "Is that a serious question.
A production line of young players, allows a sustainable development of a club over a number of years.'"
Providing you have quality youngsters. Without them it wouldn't work.
They is also no rule stating that every member of your squad must come through your own academy. If that was the case, we would have a very boring league which would eventually die a death.
Every team in every sport in the world would rather take a proven player as opposed to giving a youngster a shot. With attendances really poor these days people won't pay £20 to see a youngster trying his hardest, people want quality and a winning team.
