Why are some people so keen for us to have a good youth academy system

whereby we cultivate our own talent to then sell on for big profits in the future vs. spanking money we don't have on the ready made article,

but those same people unable to do the same with a young manager (youngest in the whole league!)? Isn't that just how we have to do our business given our size etc. If Lambert had stayed and not falling out with the board etc, perhaps he could've gone on to be that manager that helped to establish us in this league like WBA. But he f**ked off.

Unless Neil loses the players, I really don't think anyone should be considering sacking him tbh. He's a keeper for the future imo. He will get better. He's still young, very young (as far as managers go)!!

- Sorry if this is hopelessly negative, but I don't think it (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Mar 6, 23:40:06
  - You may be right Seattle. Which is probably all the more reason for our fans (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Mar 6, 23:51:30
    - *entitled (n/m) (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Mar 6, 23:51:47
      - Being older than most on here I have seen this cycle now (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Mar 7, 00:00:56
        
        If you're so old you might remember us finishing 3rd (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Mar 7, 00:05:07
        
        I believe that is called the exception that proves the rule. (n/m) (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Mar 7, 00:28:15
        
        Once in 23 years. Hardly something to expect annually tbf (n/m) (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Mar 7, 00:08:45
        
        Good analogy. Which is why some of us enjoy supporting our local/boyhood clubs (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Mar 7, 00:03:58
        
        I'm not sure we expect to be in Europe of winning the league, 1 game would be nice... (n/m) (NCFC) - Vivid Data Shark, Mar 7, 00:17:22
  - Not sure why AN is the only man for the future (NCFC) - SCC 28, Mar 6, 23:48:27
    - His work at Hamilton clearly doesn't fit the great bracket (NCFC) - SCC 28, Mar 6, 23:55:56
      - I certainly don't think he's all that special. I'm just more (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Mar 7, 00:35:44
      - Agree. But it demonstrated his potential, as did what he achieved with us last season (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Mar 6, 23:57:53
    - Did you see what he also did at Hamilton? More than just twelve months (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Mar 6, 23:50:10
