Ask anyone who has participated in sports, be it golf, tennis, rock climbing, skiing or whatever and they’ll tell you they learnt from playing/participating alongside better players.
Our youngsters are not learning because those they are playing with are no better than they are.
As a result our squad will not develop as well as previous outfits that had the likes of Joe Murphy, Andy Crosby and Ian Baraclough in them.
We are actually stifling our home grown talent, not developing it.
