| 2006 was a good vintage wasn't it?
6 years till we next got some good players through though, but since 2012 i'd argue we potentially have had a player a year who may end up a first team regular, Currie, Ben Evans, Tony King, Jack Johnson. I'd say it's too early to judge whether the youth system is successful right now.
What I'm probably more interested in right now, is the participation in the amateur scene in warrington, how is the club engaging with that, how are we tracking participation in amateur clubs, schools etc. Do the club track the amount of players registered at each age group? How are they influencing participation? I played for Woolston Rovers when I was a kid. We were the only club with a side at each age group, every year, in Warrington. We now have Rylands, Latchford Albion, Crossfields & Burtonwood to go at - is that enough?
Our problem right now is that we are trying to tempt Wigan, Saints, Yorkshire club fans to sign with us - which to be fair we seem to be doing a pretty good job at. But, as I touched on in an earlier thread today - we will have more luck tempting the next Chris Hill to the club if he is a Wire fan in the first place, and we will get him cheaper than paying a big transfer fee and inflated salary to tempt them over.
We have made great strides in the last 6 - 7 years, but we are still at the beginning of this investment - take note Marwan Koukash!!!
Good thread as per Winslade.

74166_1608576718.jpeg Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_74166.jpeg |

| Honestly RD if your opinion is based on "gut feeling" rather than fact why not just say so rather than obfuscate, it does you no favours.

| You said it was an opinion and you were correct. As for favours. I'm an old soldier.
