It's nothing to do with the individuals concerned. But when what are considered to be promising youngsters we've brought the youth system are allowed to leave without having a chance at Swindon but the young shit we've brought in play regularly it makes you wonder where priorities lay.

Our academy is great for young players confidence, they come here, no one ever sees them play a game, the coaching staff see them very day in training and decide they won't make the grade and thus they are allowed to look at other options.
However by that stage to most of our fans are convinced that they are the next Marcus Rashford, whatever you say about Power's system it works in hyping up players, look at Miles 'Vardy' Storey and Ty 'De Gea' Belford as two such examples.......

Have you ever seen Lee Marshall play?
No but they see him every evening he comes home for his tea?  |

Genuine question who are the people considering them exciting talents? |

Who mentioned exciting talents? I'm just questioning why young players not deemed good enough for us are being signed by clubs higher up the food chain, presumably for money. |

They may be doing something ridiculous like signing players for the future? Imagine that, signing players based on potential.

They're not yet considered good enough for our FIRST TEAM, yet. I doubt very much that Marshall will slot straight into Wednesday's first team either. Rather they'll potentially see him as a good enough prospect for the future and take him on to continue his development.
To ask why he's considered good enough for them but not for us is completely missing the point.

Exactly. But shouldn't they be given the opportunity here first. Especially when we regularly play some right old shite instead

Yes. Maybe they are simply too shit right now, but have the potential to improve in the future.

Not once have I read/heard stuff like "we need Lee Marshall in, he could make a difference."
Nomoreheroes has been on a one man Lee Marshall campaign for some time now, to little effect. |

You honestly don't believe that do you?
Those 2 at wingbacks are probably one reason we are where we are

I don't think it can be explained any clearer. I'll pass on the baton to anybody else that wants to pick it up......
