Berk in ead or mere scousers? Tranmere (A) 17.8.19 3pm

Where fellow sufferers gather to share the pain, longing and unrequited transfer requests that make being a Wanderer what it is...

Seriously gents is no one concerned with the welfare of our young players, I'm really disappointed in the general sod the kids welfare by some posters & its not FV's fault - does anyone seriously support FV on this ?

16,17 & 18 year old lads playing 3 games a week against bigger pro footballers, I'm losing faith in BWFC if this is now acceptable whilst a group who have previous. continue to string everyone along.
We're all very concerned. However, it's out of our hands and its kids playing or no club. The EFL presumably have the power to suspend our games a la bury, but theres not many other options left on the table

Some of us aren't that concerned about the kids playing. Me for one. I'm concerned that if they keep getting a thumping from the likes of Tranmere they'll develop a negative attitude. I'm concerned that Parkinson will try and impose his usual tactics on them in training and mentally defeat them even further. But actually concerned about them playing football? They're not eight year old chimneysweeps, or fourteen year old coal miners, or doing voluntary mine clearance in Iraq. They're playing football for a living and are above the age of consent.

I'm not saying it won't. I'm not saying it's sustainable. I'm not even saying it's the only way forward.
I'm merely saying I'm not concerned about safeguarding issues just because a bunch of young footballers are playing first team football. I'm saying some people are going a bit over the top, almost hysterical, about it...

I know we're getting beat but we aren't getting -3 every game.

If by some miracle we sort this in the next 2 weeks and get a modicum of a team, there is the chance we could turn the deficite around and fight to stay in the league.

I dread to think what the point deduction Bury are going to receive for the 5 games they've missed should they sort out the mess they are in.

I don't think we've got much chance this season (if we survive) and hopefully we can start to rebuild next year, but I reckon Bury are gonners - can't see them not being thrown out on the 23rd.

"Safeguarding" might seem an overly strong word, but there's a significant difference between first-team football and development football, and not just in terms of physicality. It's standard practice to phase the youngest players into the senior set-up because they're particularly susceptible to injuries which can hinder their development/cause further injury problems later in their careers/lives.

I'd like to think it's possible to think that's worthy of consideration without being hysterical.

So would I.
However when you have two senior players at your disposal how would you propose to phase the kids in?

I'm not proposing that we can. A number of people are thinking it's better to just postpone the fixtures rather than attempt to fulfil them by potentially putting seventeen-year-olds' development at risk. I'm not quite yet one of them, but I don't think it's hysterical to think it.

And I said that it's not hysterical to think it. However if you go back through some of the posts on here over the last 48 hours I think you might find some that were fairly hysterical in tone.
I'll also stand by my opinion that it's OK to play the kids, and for a while yet to come, even.

What, and these multiple 'definitely interested parties' have EFL fit & proper persons test already passed and £10 million in the bank to pay off the debts, and will be so ready to be up and running that no more games will be 'postponed'?
If all that happens, then what the fxck have we got to worry about? If all that happens then FV, Bassini, KA, and the administrators can all fxck off tomorrow and we'll still be alright. Because if all that happens anyfxcker can takeover a desperately struggling football club at the drop of a hat!!!!

Not saying that happens but I guess with Bury having a CVA agreed it’s easier for someone to come in quickly and pay that off plus commit to future funding plans with EFL.

Given CVA is signed off the amount is known.

It’s also a far lower amount than buying Bolton. And much less complicated.

Was one option to back out of the league cup rather than play midweek? I can’t recall when tickets went on sale but at least it wouldn’t have costed us league points. I suppose that was post Coventry ‘high’...
