Maybe it wasn't working its all a bit unclear the announcement doesn't say much - I'm not overly bothered. Sure great to have local lads Like Ashly on board but of the net comes from Pease Pottage or Peterborough or Portugal - does it matter?
Hasn't this sort of thing happened once or twice before? Maybe the schemes have different names but the ethos of encouraging people into the game was the same.
This is so disappointing - given the number of times over the years the club has set up a youth scheme (normally with great fanfare and promising it is permanent) and then scrapped it a short while later, why would any prospective youth player ever want to join such a club in the future when we inevitably set the next one up?
