Football

Err....cos we're talking about the 'Youth System/Academy'...

Rooney, Rodwell....that would be valid as they were great youth players that came through and were sold for MEGA money

Shelvey you bought from Charlton(I think?) when he was 17/18 and Spearing was shit, is shit and you got a family pack of McCoys and a new minibus for the under 9's for him

Are you really that soft in the head? The main reason you've produced that much is down to finance. You lot aint got a fucking pot to piss in. None of those players and you'd be Rymans league.

Turning profits from such shot players sounds like good business to me.
Exactly how many teams are doing mega work in the Prem? United haven't produced anything in recent years miles ahead of us: Evans, One of the fat twins?
Chelsea? Citeh?
Arsenal have done alright as have Southampton (remebering they were relegated and nearly wiped off the map) have done really well. If you turn a slight profit from sales, you're doing it right. We've had the current system in place for about 4 years. Exactly what do you think is going to happen in such a short space of time?
