RE: you know what? I think so, it may sound two faced but a manager/player are there tobe shot at, you can see thier failings and good points but backroom staff for me are a differant matter, I mean dont the Acadamy have to pass an annual test or summat ( used toget it in the army FFR fitness for role ) and that should tell us if the Acadamy is sticking to the rules whatever they are this week
RE: Jedi one Check my postings which list the FA's own mandatory requirements for an Academy and then work out how we meet them. For starters we should have 3 full-time directors. It's not unusual for the FA to give a special dispensation to a club until it can put things in order. It wouldn't look good if one of the FA flagship Academies was demoted to a Centre of Excellence. You will then understand our concerns. (pint) (pint) (pint) (pint) (pint) (pint) (pint) (pint) (pint) (pint) (puke) (puke)
