Further investment in Weir Academy

Great news. 

I won't be able to attend the Q & A after the Open Day. There is a couple of questions I would've liked to ask Archie/Gerry. Was this further investment anticipated? If it wasn't anticipated would it have affected a number of younger players being released? Players like McLaughlin, Granger & Lamont. Perhaps these lads were outside the ring fence?

I'd expect they were not good enough.  The churn rate for any youth system is huge.

Probably correct. Just a chance tho' they went in a cost cutting exercise or at least there was an element of finance involved in the decision. Lamont for instance was sent out on loan where he did very well and we are dropping down a division where the younger players should in theory have a better chance to be involved. Admittedly scrapping the U20s of course doesn't help.
