I wasn’t disagreeing.

It was a more than average number from that batch of players.

Not many do come through to play for first teams, I’m well aware of that. I was originally thinking though, that it seems that when given chances quite a few do well to start with - Ian Henderson, Ryan Jarvis, Michael Spillane and a few others. Then they fade from here and travel around the lower leagues until they’ve retired from Lowestoft or King’s Lynn. I hope Cantwell and co don’t go that way.
