If the England national football team isn't a compelling argument for limiting the number of non-England qualified players in
every Premier League team....what could be?

The only way it will happen is if we pull out of the EU. Anyone know how we can do that?


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

It's not just the players that want to fk off but the foreign owners,foreign managers and foreign experts on TV but it will never happen because all anybody thinks about is how much they get out of it-not love of the game

Millions of reasons why we arent good enough.....grass root to the top.  

Kids at the youngest of ages are programmed into a winning mentality at junior level, managers of kids at 5/6/7 yr old are obsessed with winning, which usually means the bigger, stronger, faster kids prevail and subsequently stand out. Winning takes preference over development of ability.

At the top...Premiership and Champions League prevail, clubs are money driven, petrified to drop out of those two competitions so chancing bringing in younger players to develop and bring on is seen as too risky.

The selling off of school playing fields for development has lost us at least 2 generations of potential players . How many kids with a natural talent never even realised it ?

The only way you’ll limit the foreigners is to stop pimping the TV rights across the world.

If the TV money is coming in the Carlos Kickabouts wil follow.

Listen  

If Town can not even bring a youth through the ranks and become a regular in the 1st team,


What chance  have any young lad got at bigger clubs who just go out and spend silly money on a player when they want one today !!!!!  not in 3 or 4 years time.

Oh for the days of Wainman,Boylen, K+ D Moore, B Cumming, P. Wilkinson, K Drinkell, G Lund
T Ford ect ect

It would be nice if one could make it now and again maybe Clifton and Wright might make it.

Well if you can't chuck some youth in when you're a bang average league 2 side, then you never will.  Blood a couple  of young lads and build for the future.
