Willo South coast - west of Brighton. 07 Apr 23 10.28am
Originally posted by southnorwoodhill Naming other potential young players from elsewhere just adds to the list of youngsters we already have, with a number already out on loan. The point Parish made, if I'm not mistaken, is to have a conveyor belt of up and coming young talent that challenges for places in the senior squad. A few are knocking on the door and I will be surprised if a couple do not make the leap next season, particularly given the club's finances, and a number of senior pros out of contract. Some of these players will have more chance of making the first team next season if we are relegated and this could well assist with their development! Some our our erstwhile players like Sansom, Salako, Zaha, Wright etc all developed in the lower division before establishing themselves at the higher level. Edited by Willo (07 Apr 2023 10.30am)

This may well be the case Willo, but the point is that it is time to switch on the conveyor belt and get things moving. After all, promoting a couple to the squad of 25 for next season shouldn't affect the manager's choice of his first 11 too much.
