Ummm hate to be picky but technically Tozer is new to STFC, we got him from Plymouth about 6 months ago so is a very bad example to use really as has very little to do with our youth set-up.
As for Allen I agree with sonic youths assessment to be honest.

one in ten will probably be good enough to break into the first team/be able to sell on...
i think our CofE has probably paid for itself in recent years, combined with the excellent funding provided by the supporters club

I just think whats the point in having young players at the club if we wont play them We do though Jukebox, Mildenhall, Pook, Sol Davis etc are fairly recent examples. But there is absolutely no point in playing players if they are not good enough, it would be detrimental to the club. Would you be happy to get relegated if it meant we had a lot of youth players in the team, it would be a job loser for any manager. The fact that none of our released youngsters go onto achieve anything at league level IMO justifies them not getting much of a look in here, they just aren't upto scratch.

if they aint good enough then they shouldn't play. agree with sonic about allen too. and fatbury was spot on with regard to the subs imo.

allen is very good technically, that fact alone I think he'll make it.
he does need to bulk up abit and his size is an issue but I think he range of passing and technically ability is better than Pooks was when he first broke into the team, infact his skill is probably better than Pook now

He'll be at Plymouth within a month. I think that actually living there at the moment might come into it.

Ace....if true, Sturrock always recognised the the decent job :king: did here. Having experienced first hand the sort of mayhem you have to put up with our Board, he has prorbably gone up in his estimation.

Despite all the things people say about Kingy, it can't be disputed he would make a fucking good chief scout.
