I know we always praise Brentford but they certainly deserve all that praise, their recruitment and scouting is fantastic and they have a business model that we can be envious of. They’ve got the best front 3 in the division in my opinion, if they were to sell them, I’d bet they’d get around 50 million for them and they wouldn’t waste that money either.

Mel will feel like he won the pools with tonight's win. Lose that and people wouldn't have been signing his name so much. Funny old game football.

They've had to, having scrapped their academy due to too much competition for youth players. People don't seem to consider the possibility that to emulate them would mean diverting funds away from other areas of the club. It works very well for them, but there'll be a reason not many clubs follow their model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wignall12 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Develop your own or buy in there is the conundrum. Do you develop your own and see the likes of Lowe, Bogle, Knight Bird et al break into the first team and do well or buy to sell and keep the club running ? I'd sooner not be the market stall holder and actually develop our kids. Man Utd did well with it , then started bringing in outsiders .....how has that worked for them ?

We could spend twice as much as Brentford, run our academy exactly as we currently are and still turn a profit at the end of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
