Quote ="Cas Till I Die"Does anyone actually take these scores seriously ??? We have brought the current man of steel through as well as the former England u19s captain. We made top 4 last year and went to wembley with a predominantly home grown squad. id rather my club carry on doing this and getting a bad score on a silly assessment.'"
As I said, they give an indication over a period of years scores.
The fact that Clark came through Cas' academy isn't indicative of anything. Neither is one season's results at first team level. (Btw I make it as 14 out of Cas' announced squad of 30 were homegrown and 5/6 would be in the first choice 17 in 2014.)
Consistently training and developing youngsters to a high standard alongside other issues such as player welfare, training facilities etc is.
