Wxm youth have lost a lot of players that would be in this team - Towards the end of last season Charlie Caton - Shrewsbury, Phil ... and Max Roberts to Salford, Scott Butler to Swansea. This season (so far) Pat Jones to Huddersfield, Osian Hughes has left and now Cian Williams is having trials at Swansea. I've no idea if any money came into the Club for any of these players. They are a small squad now and recruiting new players would probably be very difficult (no money and education element at college or school).

Exactly, by moving to the Welsh youth system we can get more compensation control compo more and have youth players untiln19 instead of 18 thus narrowing the gap between the academy and the first team
For the education element we could offer courses from the college surely and give them their money by offering them coaching jobs for the u8s
