AA, we have been told, it’s over, there’s no point raking over the coals. The Academy, and under 18’s was just a pointless gravy train for those people working in it. There is no value in it, any half decent lads will make it to professional level somewhere if they are good enough. There is no point producing our own we can just pick up ones who haven’t made it at other clubs. Local players will still have local grassroots teams they can play for and there are development places like Bottesford where they may even get signed up for Lincoln City in the actual football league, such places may even do some of the school stuff so local kids can meet actual pro footballers from their nearest league team. Anyway, if we get back to the league we can start taking the FA money again and dust down those old portacabins, mow that school field and start again. What’s the problem ?
