I don't think we can do the Crewe model. It will take too long to establish and cost to much investment. It took Crewe  20 years plus millions of pounds from players sales over the years to establish and maintain where they are. They now have such a great reputation they pick up the best young prospects around outside of Man U & Liverpool because they have the academy status and a proven clear pathway to the 1st team. 

What we need to do is establish are proper scouting network at home and abroad to pick up young players from big teams who drop out at 18/19/20 years old plus gambles like Hurst to show them a 1st team pathway with a U21 team for development.

Its a huge challenge for the club to get it right.

 

I agree, which is why I am very grateful the owners are up for the challenge, in terms of money, time and effort. By switching to a longer term strategy, they are creating work for themselves, but then again, I suspect they knew that as well when they bought the club from the previous owner.  The only area where I perhaps disagree is the time it might take us - I would hope we can cherry pick the best practices (and maybe personnel) from other clubs using Flitcroft's insight, and not take 2 decades over it.

Something like this sounds really good mate but like u say we need to change the squad age a bit 

is this another reason why we won’t play legge 

To be fair we were a circus I trust carol to sort it out 

I didn't say we were a circus i was quoting a crewe fan who said no way would Morris join the Vale circus

Flitcroft's interview with the Sentinel is very good.

Reading between the lines I'm expecting a manager to be appointed end of this week.

Appears for the first time in a very longtime we are going to have a proper plan for the 1st team. Its going to be a massive summer of upheaval for the 1st team squad.

 

I also think we will have someone in place for this weekends game,maybe not to take charge of that game but i do believe we will have a manager

Thats the thing now, we are perceived a circus, a crises every other week, but due to Carol & Co we are changing our identity bit by bit, and I can see us being an attractive proposition in the very near future, anyone in the game will know that the culture and the running of the club has changed dramatically, a real challenge for the right candidate.

I think if everything she wants to achieve at the club are achieved then this will be a fantastic club in every aspect,i think there are a lot more plans to come from Carol and it can only be a good thing.

I think now this has all sunk in with fans and they have listened to what David and Carol had to say then the initial confusion has gone and i honestly cant see many people moaning about this now... so forward thinking imo

I wasn't sure if a Director in name only. It's just that he has a few successful businesses and so that type of background would be useful too, I reckon

Reading the interview Carol gave to the Sentinel that is one of the reason they wanted him.

Also felt they needed a voice on football matters to link the board room other than football operations by Garlick.
