Of course it is not exactly what we had before as things change over time but the concept certainly is

Do you suffer from dyslexia by any chance?

Not being an active Church person I suppose I should not have any views on the subject. But I find it bizarre that there are going to be women Bishops perhaps Women Football managers next

She seems a very stupid person posting on Facebook for the whole world to see. My wife's schoool has a no Facebook Teacher Policy

I agree with you but at the moment we are League 1 and I am not sure that we are getting the best youngsters only time will tell

The problem I have is that loads of clubs are doing virtually the same thing so although I totally agree with the approach I dont see why we should automatically become successful and other teams do not. The approach is the the same as Lowe's but without top class players coming through it will not work but hopefully it will Cortese is doing a very good job at the moment but we will have to wait and see how successful he will be in the long term

Enjoy the game

Which is where we were with Lowe but did not have enough Premiership standard players coming through Now we are in League 1 do we have enough League 1 standard players coming through?

What time is todays game?

I take your point but I dont think it is not very realistic In the next ten years we are not going to be able to compete with the top Premier League clubs as they are investing all the time and as I said above I doubt whether a top clas youngster in say Nuneaton is dreaming about playing for SFC But as I dont have a Crystal Ball I dont know what will happen after that

Although I totally agree in the Strategy it is not a foregone conclusion that it will actually work It works at teams like Ajax and Barcelona because the best young footballers want to go to their Acadamies I doubt whether a top clas youngster in say Nuneaton is dreaming about playing for SFC.

I agree with your comment but without financial contraints there will not be the same pressure to sell to balance the books. But I think players will still leave when their contracts end

Mentioned in Havant Thread below

I dont see much difference between this strategy and Lowe's We will have to wait and see what happens when we produce a Walcott a Bale or a Bridge in the future but I would be surprised that they did not eventually move to a top club

Yes sounds very much like the Dutch way too which the previous regime wanted to adopt which I fully supported. I was very impressed with an interview Martin Jol Manager of Ajax gave on Sunday his team has 8 or 9 players who have come through his Academy Playing together for a number of years must be a good thing

Is this player from Bishops Stortford in the Squad http://nln24.com/news/story/stortford-star-hoping-for-dream-saints-switch

I Wonder if Stern stayed would we have bought Rickie Lambert

I know there will be some Mickey Mouse Friendlies for the Reserves. I do however agree with your analysis about the goal Keeping Situation but I cannot blame Bart if he wants to leave Seems to be a slight mess unless they think Forecast is going to improve

I think Bart may want to play for a First Team with no reserve fixtures this year what is he to do at SFC

The club spokesman has and he is in Switzerland

Yes we should be in the top two but who knows

Totally agree is the person posting the information new just like to know next who is in the squad

Unfortunately it does not seem to be working it at the moment with very few coming through to the First team. Apart from Oxlade and possibly Gobern which Academy players are going to make it into the First Team this season. We are a League 1 side so standards are not as high as they were previously

Any idea who is in the Squad

I am sorry if this has already been posted but there has been talk of Rooney joining us from Maccessfield He is currently training with a League 1 side Could it be us? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/macclesfield_town/8802154.stm
