I read this last night, thing is how far will they go? Again our youth policy comes into play...We will keep buying and loaning...would be nice to see a few players actually come through

don't worry ALL 3 will be in our starting 11 in 5 years time,

The youth policy is primarily propaganda, a window dressing and veneer -to give the impression of 'growth, academy, nurturing' etc. Yes one or two might make it, be loaned out, hell one or two might even get a first team game or two. But the majority are a second string -which do make a profit however when farmed and sold on. An expensive megastore product. But it really is time to stop this romantic nonsense about 'why dont da yoof get a chance ? '.

The reality is football isnt how it was 20-30 years ago when first team players usually came within a small geographical radius of the club. It is now a cut throat business -what investment bank or global franchise hires apprentices in its local area to be chief executives ?

No, they head hunt the best globally, to return the maximum profit

That means these kids will have to move to London with their family?

If so, why do the parents agree on such a stupid move?! The kids could have played for Luton till they're 15 or so, then see if they can make it to the professionals and move on to another club, if they are good enough.

Luton aint far from London at all. Also Luton is a complete and utter dump (Sorry to any members that live there), they would most likely have to move down to Cobham area which is far nicer.

Still, the kids will have to move away from all their friends and kids their age have to be living in an incact surroundings, containing a true home. Don't know if moving to another city is that good for them... even it isn't far away from their old home town.

Not "big" news but disgusting behaviour which is absolutly needless because of our youth-system. If they progress well they will be loaned out to 6 clubs in 5 countrys and will be sold in the end back to Luton
