Bin it. Not interested in maybe 1 player every 5 years. Let’s invest in the first team. Maybe someone who knows what the white netted thing is in between those two white thins are.

The purpose of the academy is for the Germans to make money off any future players, that is their priority not the first team.

Again and I stated this when they took over but yet again .nets finest dish out the cards etc. These investors have money but their long term investment is players going through the academy and selling on for ££.

It must be a very long-term plan then because the club has about £10m of accumulated losses which would have to be wiped out before any dividends could be paid.

I think us fans if being honest couldn’t give a fook about 10 years time. We want to win on a Saturday or a Friday this week.

which is why the plan/idea will never work, that goes back to when Johnston got the sack when this started in a way.

We`re not struggling because we`re developing an academy. It`s two separate issues.

STOP CALLING IT AN ACADEMY, ITS A TRAINING FACILITY!!!!!

We’ve developed plenty of young players over the last couple of years without a designated training facilities, so can only be seen as a good thing in the long run.

But immediate success should always come first…

I’m not sure about that, Rigger. It’s mainly about money ?

How? The Germans always said they didn`t come to the club to throw money at the current playing squad. It was more about investing in the future. So if the club weren`t interested in that they wouldn`t have invested at all.

Not asking them to throw money at the first team though. A wee bit investment on a player who knows where the net is would be a start. For what it’s worth we are more than sufficient up to and including the midfield. Up front is woefully inadequate.
