Gotta hand it to MK Dons Academy staff

[MasterHaynes]

Over the last few years they have spotted and developed a number of players despite not being graded as a top tier academy. Amongst others they have spotted and developed from an early age our own George Williams and have just sold one 18 yr old to Everton and another tipped to go to Liverpool both of whom were playing regularly for the 1st team. It would be a good move to forge closer links with them, maybe loan them some of our better U21's.MKDons get some very good players, Our U21's get 1st team experience and work with some good coaches there.

You've got to hand it to Karl Robinson as well, appointed when he was 29, now 33 he's been overseeing all of this successfully. They even done wonders for Patrick Bamford of Chelsea, imagine what they could do with we handed them the likes of Jack Grimmer.

I would really like to see some sort of relationship with a lower league club where we can hand them a list of players and they can pick 2/3 that they want (obviously we wouldn't include players we have plans to use).

Will Karl Robinson become the new Dario Gradi? Lot of similarities starting coaching so young and having the same immediate success

And one of the best cities, (town officially but we'll continue to call ourselves a city if we want), in the country!

When we got pat, Afc Wimbledon youngsters were all grassroots Sunday league players as they wasn't and academy then or either a centre of excellence which Afc did become
