This may have already been explained/answered but anyways - can someone explain the following (and yes I am aware the following is more of a statement than a question):
KC has previously stated he won't just hand out first team places to our own youth team players and clearly favours 'experienced' pros who in his opinion need the opportunity to earn another contract somewhere else, yet he seems very happy to throw our youth players under the bus:
Without Turnbull the midfield was never going to be as strong or robust so the defence was going to be under more pressure than normal & we have seen several times that Ash does not set a good example or support younger players (Odoffin first game of the season) and is not capable of guiding a young player through 90 mins, so why include 2 youth team players one making his first league two appearance.
But also he goes on about experienced pros yet leaves Facey on the bench - surely it would have made more sense to slide Goode inside to CB and play Facey at right back? or maybe Facey doesn't deserve the opportunity to earn a new contract unlike Bowditch?! And since Bridge played his best game for us vs Carlisle in his most preferred position we have barely seem him since.
I am very supportive of introducing our youth players but we need to ensure they have the right players around them to thrive, this weekend or cambridge away are prime examples of how not to introduce youth players into the first team.
Was the recent good run just very lucky in the fact that we were relatively solid at the back (although still gave away chances (newport at home) and managed to sneak a goal similar to Boothroyd although even under Boothroyd we seemed to have a plan of how we would score.
