Ludo*1 Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 John Murphy (very briefly) and Roberto Landi managed Livi and Marcio Maximo (just) fits into that 20 year time frame as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When any of our clubs get the transfer fee from a promising player, they tend to spend it on keeping the boat afloat. Our best youth players are pinched by bigger clubs as soon as they show promise. The managers then have to piss with the cock they are given. This is our Gordian knot. I think having less money makes the excuse for not developing youth weaker. Some teams fill their squads with some really average journeymen when they could be throwing some youth in there. Sometimes a player surprises you and performs above expectation. Sometimes you can get a season or 2 out of a player who will ultimately end up down the leagues but can hold a place for a while and that is better than paying an ex Chesterfield/Lincoln squad player twice the wage for the same outcome. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
