Im sure we all feel that way at the moment, but it doesnt mean that we can't be positive about things the club are achieving in the background, especially something that should hopefully be a great benefit to us in the future.

I'm not doubting about it being good. I'm just in pre-match mode and desperate for 3 points tonight 👍

Re: UNITED ACADEMY AWARDED ELITE STATUS

Does anybody know what getting the elite status means in real terms? From project Braves roll out, I remember that it would mean increased funding (which is likely to be used up completely by the extra staff.)

Obviously, it will help to entice young players to join us rather than dundee/st johnstone as a youth. Is that it?

Also I thought it was being punted out as we would be the only east coast team to have this level? A quick squiz of the SFA website shows aberdeen hearts n hibs all have it already.... maybe I've picked it up wrongly?

If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

Re: UNITED ACADEMY AWARDED ELITE STATUS

This achievement is important but will have a delay to get really appreciated if it works well.

Had to be done/achieved for a club like ours with a need for the best youth to be attracted and come through for the teams benefit and the club's financial gain and long term plan.

Falling behind in this respect could be a right kick in the scroat all fkn round.
