    Given where we are it clearly isn't hurting at the moment. Warnock is probably someone who gives players a framework within which to perform, rather a teacher who will develop skills.

    It might hurt us a few years down the line, but in the same breath I'm not aware of any youngsters who are knocking on the doors at the moment.
    Odd, then, that when Slade wasn't playing the youngsters he was being castigated. Isn't it simply the case that Cardiff's Academy is failing? When was the last time that the academy produced a Welsh international and/or a player that moved to a higher division club for a fee of more than £1m? Just as Warnock can't be blamed for not picking non-existent starlets, it's amusing that some use the same issue as a stick to beat his predecessor.

    Perhaps some of the money that is spent on the 1Malaysia project would be better spent closer to home? Just a thought.

    Mark Harris had some game time last season and is in Warnock's radar. Given the start we've made to the season it's probably not a huge surprise that he hasn't been involved, but I reckon he will be at some point.

    Slade had a few young players at his disposal that he chose to ignore regularly. I'm not sure the same applies to Warnock.

    Who were these players?
