Nailed it!
Fabulous post. Thank you
Don’t disagree as such, we are reticent to change and play into the “Pashun” mentality but the whole post can be simplified to Money.
The whole 10 year reset thing is a bit of a red herring tbf - without money it’s a paper exercise.
Youth facilities = money
Scouting Infrastructure = money
Improve football operations = money
Modernise Club = money
Director of Football = money
Ambition = money
Those breaking or broken into the top flight, or on a improving trajectory:
Man City, Bournemouth, Brighton, Birmingham, Wrexham, Forest etc….. Money. Money. Money.
You can have the grandest ambitions and most sound strategic approach, but it’s folly without cold hard cash to back it up.
