Unfortunately football now is a game of money but I always felt clubs who have a distinct idea of what they want as a club have done better. Look at Brentford and Brighton, their models have been to look at obtaining young talented players and growing them to look to sell on as they develop as a club.

We need to decide what our goals are and align our management appointments with that goal. Personally I like Bulut he's done a job off the back of the last 2 woeful seasons, however as a club what direction are we going?

If Cooper is still available I'd go for him.
Nowhere until money is invested seriously, or as you say we focus on developing talent quickly combined with a spread out scouting network.

I'd be all for us getting rid of the academy if none are brought through next season. I've said a few times, the costs associated with running it must be astronomical. Use it or lose it quite literally.
