Quoted from ginnywings
A few people have commented that we don't have many players coming through from youth level but you could say that about any team.Very very few make it to pro and i believe we are second only to Leicester in producing players that go on to have a pro career,so i wouldn't be too hasty in dismissing our club.


I think we're second only to Leicester for giving youth players debuts in our first team but not for them having a professional career. A lot are given a handful of appearances before being released (Andy Taylor for one).

Can anyone back this claim up? Not saying it's untrue just that my quick google search drew a blank.

That's quite surprising really, I'd have thought Crewe would have been up there. Their academy since the Dario Gradi era has been outstanding for such a small club.

Lads who I have taught have had trials with Grimsby and ended up leaving having been scouted by Scunny. Talking to parents they say it is an excellent setup.  Might be worth knocking on their door as well.

Yeah that's been widely reported over the last few years by the club. Don't forget alongside Pettinger and Croudson there was Andy Love who came through from the youth team, so three GK' s in say 15 years, I bet that's better than a lot of clubs.

In case the Derby fan is still checking back on this thread. Note the call up to the England under 21s squad today of Peterborough defender Ryan Bennett.

He was at Ipswich as a young lad but they released him at age 15/16. We signed him to our youth system, he signed a YT deal then a pro deal after breaking into our first team at 17. A £400,000 transfer to Peterborough followed and now he's in the England u21 set-up.
