Just watching the championship just wondering how Reading with their links with Irish clubs can produce players like Doyle whilst our special relationships with other worldwide clubs Valencia, Inter, etc... has produced zilch. One word springs to mind Junket !!

yawn .......... give it a rest ffs!
Excuse me, did you get out of bed on the wrong side this morning?
If just one of these promising players comes through and makes it into the first team then it'll make a massive difference.
I accept that the results of this will take a while to see!
Like last season, you mean.
So 'types' that put a clause in their contact saying that they can leave for no fee if they help participate in a relegation. No thanks.
As my previous response to your post was deleted Weegie I will elaborate.
Do you really, I mean REALLY think that AP makes his selection of players based on YouTube clips? Seriously?
And who says that youngsters at other Championship clubs are good or are any better than ours - you? What qualifications do you have? Perhaps fans of other clubs may be looking at some of our youngsters, e.g. Shelvey, and wondering why they can't produce such exciting English prospects. Ever considered that?
But hey, don't let me get in the way of you bitching on about AP. You have got your agenda to fulfill after all.
As for my "getting out of the wrong side of bed", well today is Rememberence Sunday, in case you didn't know. Just for one day of the year it would be nice not to have to read complete drivel, but then - unfortunately as it is - I already know the only real way to achieve that.
But most of these 'experienced' players from the Premiership aren't commited - that's my point. They don't care about us - they just come to get a bit of match fitness. The last thing they want to do is get stuck in because they might get injured.
We're better off getting players with Championship experience.
Yeah hopefully we're only a year or two away from the first few Ivory Coast players coming here. We've done very well to link up with them ahead of any of the big clubs.
We've got Christensen and Jensen from the Danish club we linked up with, not sure whats going on with Christensen, but Jensen is behind Shelvey, Wright, probably Arter at the moment.
Anyway at the moment, the last thing we need is more promising young players. We've seen several make their debuts in the last year and a half, then we've got slightly older players like Racon, Yassin, Youga and Semedo who aren't yet at their peak.
Think the Valencia thing was more about community work and stuff, its hardly at a time when some young Valencia player would want to come here anyway.
What I will say is please don't get personal about Remembrance Day - my Dad was a PoW for nearly five years, so I suggest you watch what insults you throw around in ignorance.
(And by the way, that never stopped my Dad having an opinion about Charlton, the manager or where we scouted players from. After all, he gave up a chunk of his life to protect such freedom of speech...)
lets all get along for a while folks eh
You are. I'm chilled. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!
