Fire the lot, stealing a good living from the club

Playing staff issues aside - off the pitch that would be my absolute first starting point this summer. Hopefully Congerton does so
I said in a different thread that someone needs to question bally about the academy (nepotism, etc) if he does any more talk ins

Totally agree had too long and their feet are right under the table sack them all ?we have a huge catchment Area so what the hell is going wrong but they make sure they get their sons and ex footballer friends sons in at the academy don't they .the whole thing stinks and needs a complete new start .north east was a hotbed like Liverpool .liverpool still is what's happened to the north east .our shite coaches at the academy I know for a fact write kids off by the time they are 13 how can you do that when all kids grow and develop at vastly various ages .no coaches now look at kids 16 and over why.

I don't know much about the academy, and how well it is operating, but on a superficial it has produced two players in the last 5 years that are better than anything it did in the 10 to 15 years prior...

Who are the two?
 
I mentioned on another thread about academy. My nephew was there (small for his age, but very technical and cracking left foot). He was let go via letter (not face to face with his Mam or Dad). Anyway few months later they now want him back as he has grown a little. He's now very happy training with Middlesborough & C**tcastle, so has gassed SAFC off. Another lad who plays for same team 9Goalkeeper) was invited to AOL and left waiting with his dad for 45 minutes in reception. Both are massive SAFC fans and he now has joined NUFC and just been invited to the elite squad.

Very worrying if you ask me, the whole place needs to be looked at.

Indeed. The bold bit is a disgrace.

Shame that like, was the exact opposite when I was a kid. SAFC were much better at dealing with young lads.

These are 7 & 8 year olds as well mate, imagine it's the same for older ones. I actually got taken around the AOL when I had to take nephew to training by a scout, he was an absolute great bloke. Problem appears to be with the coaching staff

Disheartening to hear that mind.
