Grass roots in England don't produce good enough players and haven't for years. I know it isn't an exact science but how many 'next big things' make it? How many don't and end up playing for Colchester?
We had Manchester Uniteds youth and reserve team captain on loan, he was some what rated there. A few months after being on loan here he was in non league.
We had a few good loan players of course but the very good to average to shit ratio is firmly lopsided to shit.
Whilst its obviously a much higher standard but England's performances in the Under XXs tournaments shows we don't produce top class players.
We'll see when the season starts, call me whatever the fuck you like, I really don't care but I think we will struggle and the majority of the young players won't be anything special.

McCrory quotes from yesterday
"We have interviewed three"
"We haven’t approached anyone that’s at a football club currently"
"We want a bold, brave British type"
Stuart Pearce possible?

You'd have to assume he's one just as process of elimination from all the names mentioned |

The only thing that says it isn't Pearce is Dr Chang saying ages ago that Pearce would be our new manager before KMac left.

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.
