Some good and positive news in a sea of cack.

Well done lads.

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

Great result.

[47er]

Venkys will be rubbing their hands with glee. More reasons to hang on, some of them could be worth a bit.

But aren't they supposed to be whacking in millions to fund this academy ?

We retained grade one status this year which lasts for three seasons unless the club voluntarily give it up - as Bolton did last season.

I heard today that the V's refused to rubber stamp a contract for one of the academies better prospects, have you any insight on this or is it merely a rumour?

If it's the player I'm thinking of then this is something that has been on-going since very early in the season. Last I heard he still hadn't got a pro contract but don't know if that has changed recently.

abbey it would be brilliant if the youth team got a bigger gate than the 1st team,i know you say you are boycotting but there are plenty who boycott when they get a freebie,just imagine the shisters if the youth pulled in 9k for a game,

Wouldn't happen. The club would put the 'Sold Out' sign on the JW lower tier - unless it was Burnley.

Is it because he's refused to sign up to thier right agent.

Dunno.

But it begs the question what the academy is for if we don't sign up the better players.
