    I know but the percentage of kids who actually turn pro and are 'made financially' compared to the percentage of kids who are eligible, through grades, scholarships etc, to go to uni is like night and day.

     

    How many pro clubs are there in Scotland? 20 odd? And 80% of those won't be offering more than a couple of grand a week.

    Back in my day lads that went to Highbury got a first class football education but in case they didn’t make the grade they were give a job either in the city or they learned a trade like electrician or plumbing to fall back on I don’t know what happens to them today do we just discard them if so then that’s shameful.

  2. One thing I did notice recently in Glasgow was the amount of unused football pitches in and around the city which suggests to me young lads are not as keen to be footballers these days maybe it’s a lifestyle thing they all seem to want to go to university/college but we all know if your a good player you’re made financially I just don’t understand the youngsters of today .

    We live in the best of times, we live in the worst of times. It is an age of wisdom, it is an age of foolishness. It is an epoch of belief, it is an epoch of incredulity. It is the season of light, it is the season of darkness. It is the spring of hope, it is the winter of despair. 

     

    Whatever your preferred prejudice, we must acknowledge these are woke times. ViaPlay are to be congratulated in covering the entire spectrum of inclusivity and diversity. Yesterday's panel for the Scottish League Cup semi-final between Hearts and Rangers had it all. The panel assembled for broadcast covered all the bases, it was :

     

    Marvin Bartley - black.

    Alan Hutton -white.

    Emma Dodds - Lesbian.

    Michael Stewart - complete and utter ginger cnut.

     

    It is the way ahead.
