I am privy to some inside information now and again, and I know that next season we are aiming to have a squad of 20/22 players and 4/5 of those are to be players from the youth academy, they are looking to massively cut back next season. I’ve seen a lot of information from training that tbh is very damming if our current midfield and shows why the youth will be played next season instead. Stay up or go down, I think we are going to be in for a very tough year next season.
Not doubting your information. However, I find it very difficult to believe that PW and the club (if/when we are relegated) would risk potentially dropping into non League with such a risky strategy.
We all know that the team has come second or even third in terms of priority for a number of different reasons over the years. But PW is open about the fact he wants to sell up. If he wants to achieve that, then he'll get a lot more interest (or at least some) if we are in L1.
He's going to want/have to plough money into the training ground, but underfunding or making drastic cuts to the playing budget would be suicide for his selling ambition.
I think it’s more because of their belief in the youth players we have, I hope so anyway. But I can assure you that is the plan, they want a smaller squad with the youth acting as the back ups. Fine if it works, Tripp will defo be a saleable asset in a few years, but it doesn’t fill me with much hope.
