Well run teams do indeed give kids a chance but only when the main body of the team are good enough to protect and carry them so that the performance of the team as a whole doesn't suffer. The balance of a successful team should always be 2 or 3 very experienced older players, 7 who are at the peak of their careers and a couple of enthusiastic "kids". Given the fact that Latics don't have a reserve side, delight in buying players who are past it and get rid (for peanuts) of players who show promise, therein lies the problem resulting in years of decline. Anyway let's get set for the familiar and annual end of season discussion (i.e. change of manager, clear out of squad, signing of "prolific" goalscorers blah blah). Good luck for next season.
