Now that we have retained our premier league position does that now make it harder

for any of the lads that played last night, or any other youth team player to make it all the way through to the 1st team over the next 3 seasons or so?

In the short term we will expect higher quality and players that can hit the ground running to be brought in to the side we already have. We will expect to replace players that leave with better quality ones....Is giving youth a chance too risky in our annual survival campaign?

Its nice to dream that we can field a team with a few of our own but that is not really going to happen.
