Hey Phil, I know we don't always agree but I'm with you 100% on this one.
NO MORE 34 YEAR OLDS /MATES OF BD PLEASE!
Our youngsters held their own against, as I understand it, a fairly strong B&HA team on Saturday. Coming in for an almost 1-off game is never easy but they apparently did very well. For them to do this and then be mothballed again would be totally wrong, especially if old uns are brought in and played at their expense.
We NEED energy, drive, and motivated players to mix with the experience we've already got in the squad.
As you say, what's the point of an academy if the players are picked, do well then are basically ignored? Not rocket science is it!
