I quite like the idea of this Band of Brothers routine and yes having a strong academy with a good hit rate of producing SL standard players from within with P&B coursing through their veins is worth striving for.
However. using hindsight and revisit our 2012 squad and tell me about all those players that couldn't give a monkeys.
That's the balance of squad I’d like to see here now and I didn't think any less or more of a player based on where they were from.
Effort and giving all for the cause and your team mates comes from within surely
Yes this thing about having come through our Academy meaning you play with more pride in the shirt than others is just a myth.
I'd be interested to hear everyone's examples of Wire players from the last 30 years who had the most pride in the shirt and wonder what share of them came through our Academy.
