And in any business, you want to keep your best customers happy. Discarding 90% of his products and replacing them with the ones that his customer tells him to have? What if his customer wins the lottery and goes from Sainsbury's to Marks and Spencer's next week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure that the manager and first team coach will have input into playing style etc, but surely the Academy head will have say on who will make it and who not?

The academy needs to produce the goods at the right cost and quality to satisfy the customer, or else customer will source supplies elsewhere.

Rab a dab doo Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 The player must have a say in this as well. If he cannot see a way forward and is being offer playing time with decent club, why should he want to go himself ? If we can get a decent fee then its a win win all round.

Boycie Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 The policy was outlined before. If any club wants to loan our players cheap that’s fine, but they’ll do well and impress then the cost will not be as cheap. Good luck to the lad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
