Another article here. https://www.google.c...claim-best/amp/

Good article, although little mention of the owners multi million pound investment in the club.
The idea of scrapping the academy for a B team is perhaps one to consider.

Which clubs aren't 'great'? You seem to describe every club that isn't CFC that way....

I have said for a while that we should look at not running an academy and look at running a real development squad,get cast offs from other clubs 16-19 year olds and give them a second chance.

Can remember when they went through their lean years and a guy,Martin Mad dog Allen kept them afloat on a shoestring.Thought they might have been tempted with a greater capacity on the new ground plans.
Many a good tune

A new hope.
