Fantastic for the academy for a player to play 100 matches for the first team, that's a massive success.

yeah - appreciate that. I meant that we’ve had or only had 8 since the PL begun. No idea if that’s great or not.

I can, he was first choice between Thorstvedt & Sullivan which is quite a long time.

My unsung hero David Howells in there.

Looks pretty ropey to me, dating back well over 20 years. I suppose knowing how many players have made the grade at premier league level regardless of club would give us a better idea of how effective the academy has been. Gut feel is that it’s pretty poor though.
