I believe he's only ever said that once. You must try harder. You used to be a pretty good troll. What happened?

| The last few pages are a sad reflection on both clubs youth policies in the not too distant past. Fortunately, both clubs seem to be on a road to recovery.
Hull have suffered from years of under-investment in their youth and the board not really giving a damn. We only did 'well' prior to that due to Rovers not in direct competition, and us reaping the benefits of the city being a hot-bed without us having to do much.
The last real crop to come through was the Houghton, Washbrook, Wheeldon, Hall, Lee etc crop - who some, despite maybe coming through after 2007 when Rovers were promoted, were still a legacy of our monopoly in the city.
Rovers may as well write off pre-2007. It's pretty much irrelevant to this 'debate' as the funds simply wouldn;t have been there, and prmotion was the ultimate goal. Like Hull, in those years following promotion, youth wasn't at the top of the priorities list.
Things are changing though. Both sides seem to have a sprinkling of players that have come through their youth setups established in their first team, as well as a number of promising yougsters getting the odd game with a view to bringing them on slowly.

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

I presume being a gold member is based on the number of posts not on their quality.
