| 21. Author: wee eck Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 20:37 We tried to sign Brophy and Rudden apparently. Who else were you thinking of? Contrary to what some fans think there aren`t many prolific scorers clubs are prepared to release in the January window. Reply |
| 22. Author: Parfect69 Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 21:02 wee eck, Sat 09 Mar 20:37 Agreed. Maybe we could have went that wee bit more in terms of of money. However if they don’t want to play for us then fair enough. Reply |

| 25. Author: Alter Ego Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 21:36 3/4 years ago I told every singe pars fan on here these directors are not looking for the club to be in the top flight.. but make us a middle club that can sell young players to top teams. Imo we are ok in a championship division. Tbh Mr Cook and the owners can do one…. But who have we got now? Mon the Pars! Reply |

| 27. Author: Alter Ego Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 22:01 Offfft that’s not a nice reaction but we are going to be a championship club for a good few years. Mon the Pars! Reply |
| 28. Author: wee eck Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 22:04 That`s reassuring. Some on here think we`re going to be a League 1 club! Reply |
| 29. Author: Berkey Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 22:10 Where will the budget to run the training complex come from? Given our excellent record in attracting local players who then go on to good things how will this facility help them come to us? Hope you got the sarcasm. Not sure realistically how much money we’ll make from selling players on, we’ll likely make more room sell on clauses inserted rather than initial fees, this just reduces the probability of it covering its costs even les.

| 30. Author: saltonsgonagetu Date: Sat 9th Mar 2024. 23:45 A complete waste of money, on attracting youngsters we are behind, at least 6 clubs , add on English clubs picking up scottish youngsters ,we are left with what? What is our track record of producing youngsters to sell on in the last 30 years ?  Reply |
| 31. Author: wee eck Date: Sun 10th Mar 2024. 00:08 Isn`t one of the purposes of the Academy to improve on that record? Reply |
| 32. Author: AveragePar Date: Sun 10th Mar 2024. 00:52 wee eck, Sun 10 Mar 00:08 Exactly, feels as though the academy is just another thing the .net has decided needs a bashing because the teams not playing well. Reply |
| 33. Author: Berkey Date: Sun 10th Mar 2024. 07:58 Do rovers have an academy? They have a much better record at bringing players through in the last 20 years. We talk about local lads like for example Scott brown, how is this complex going to mean he chooses us over the Edinburgh or Glasgow teams who will have a wider network to identify good youngsters at all age groups. Football has changed, as we saw with nisbet we can’t command decent upfront fees as we’re so skint. So we need these youngsters to sign for teams with cash who also then sell them on for big money which is much rarer. I just hope it’s self sufficient.

| 34. Author: Indiapar Date: Sun 10th Mar 2024. 19:37 The academy will be more than just the facilities. It will be about introducing good coaching methods and standards. The facilities are one part of the equation Reply |
| 35. Author: cammypar 1995 Date: Sun 10th Mar 2024. 19:39 Will it be worth it if we are in league 1 with a run down stadium? c'mon the pars Reply |
| 36. Author: Indiapar Date: Sun 10th Mar 2024. 19:55 From what I have read, football academies are common in Germany. They see academies as a sustainable way to run the club. The top clubs attract not only local talent but international talent. They also run programmes for international players to spend 3 -12 months at the academy. The various age groups play against other academy teams in competitive leagues but also against local men`s teams. If successfully operated, I see it as a big opportunity for the club. It is seen as a very positive thing for young players to get a professional level of coaching at a young age and develop through a structured educational system Reply |
| 37. Author: Andrew283 Date: Sun 10th Mar 2024. 20:13 Indiapar, Sun 10 Mar 19:55 Tbf, German clubs are not having to run said academies with League 1/Championship funds Reply |
| 38. Author: jake89 Date: Sun 10th Mar 2024. 21:14 Andrew283, Sun 10 Mar 20:13 I believe there are quite a few Bundesliga 2 clubs with well thought of academies. If nothing else, it creates a decent training facility for the club that we have first dibs on and can rent out to the community. Reply |
| 39. Author: Andrew283 Date: Sun 10th Mar 2024. 21:45 jake89, Sun 10 Mar 21:14 Tbf, I`d imagine Bendesliga 2 teams to be taking in far greater funds than most in Scotland. Reply |
| 40. Author: eastendalloapar Date: Sun 10th Mar 2024. 22:26 I`ve said elsewhere that Falkirk had one but had to bin it because of the cost. Will we be any better / different. matt forsyth Reply |
