Subject: Youth Squad Updates

wish i had some money

spending all on crappy youth school not giving me any return

i know that feeling mate lol . all my "top" talented players are coming out awful . aint got a clue about how to rectify it tho

funny how i predicted exactly what i would get tho lol :)

ps , my brilliant yp is listed now for 50k

6 in today and i sacked 5

im riddled with hopless and tragics just now - how did the rest of you do ??

3 in today a good 33 one sacked and this guy (who should be sacked but will be kept) .............

.........

Steve McBeckenbauer hopeless 24 lol

high hopes mate ! lol

i kept this one - simply because one of my work mates is called jimmy baxter

Jimmy MacBaxter poor 31

2 in today a poor 18 and a unsat 22

with the other sackings i am down to 10 in my YS

6 of whom make it to first team on thursday

i give up

yup mine is dying a death as well. Hmmmm are we being punished? Has something changed?

im beginning to wonder mate

ive had total and utter dross for a very long time now , maybe im just a little unlucky lol

I only got one in today

Elliot McCulloch weak 16

Looking at my Juniors it will be the end of next season before I get anything worthwhile.

i signed up in my youth academy as a trainee today:

Jimmy Suttie hopeless 16

(me being a James Suttie, aka Jamie.... Jimmy still works though ;) )

The skill level is about right ;)
