Main points are
£3.5 million raised by sales in the last two transfer windows and the price tribunal put on Ampadu was a joke
6 academy players In the last match day squad - 4 started

Their own state of the art 4G pitch - we still use the rediculously hard Saltmill which argyles own physios advise some of the lads not to train on when recovering from injuries
I’ve taken some stick on here before for my views on our academy but these facts speak for them selves
