Excellent post and agree almost with everything. Except the effort put in by the kids. My own sons team,which is a 2004 age group,has a number of boys training with clubs,and my own boy is up at Murray Park academy with the 2005's.I can tell you the commitment and effort shown by these wee lads is astonishing.Albeit there are some "superstars",but the grafters who practise everyday really do stand out. I genuinely believe in ten years we will see a real special bunch of kids coming through all over Scotland. The pro youth thing I agree with you 100%. Our culture must also change as well.
