Talking around a 2-3 mill loan fee for the season, or more than 2 and half what they gave us. Not even magic beans. Cat 1 academy = huge waste of money .

How after a season where we had to heavily rely on young players from our academy stepping up, could you conclude that a Cat 1 academy is a waste of money? It's the only positive part of Mel's legacy. It's our single most valuable asset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the only positive part of Mel's legacy. It's our single most valuable asset. Its 6 million a year and growing. We made more from youngsters prior to the academy. Hughes/ Hendrick. Barnes would have been 10 if we sold him at the right time . It just gives the better youngsters exposure on a weekly basis to vultures. Best to bring players along away from that level and we'll keep more . Youngsters will still come as they have access to the first team within 24 months at championship level . As long as we are in this league, we won't attract decent academy players anyway. Revisit when times are better and rules on vultures are stricter regarding sell ons and loan fee percentages to the selling club. Example loan fee 3 million for delap - derby get 50%.

Yes, but it's special circumstances that prevented us from making money on these players and you well know it. They come for the facilities that Derby's academy brings. They could join other clubs for the option of first team football, what sells is it the brilliant facilities we have in being Cat 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I think as long as we’re scratching around for bargains and are willing to play youngsters I think we certainly do have a chance of attracting the top academy plays released from the big clubs. We’ll never get the cream first dibs as the top Prem clubs are a massive draw for parents and youngsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best youngsters have jumped for minimum compensation is what I know. Admin is irrelevant in those circumstances. It's rules set out that need to be improved . Until then, players will come to Derby - in the championship- if they have a clear path to the first team . Cat 1 or not. Makes no odds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
