Will be saying much the same as here:
https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/3904699/david-gold-admits-the-days-of-west-ham-being-footballs-academy-may-be-over/?utm_source=TWITTER&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=SprnklrSUNOrganic&UTMX=Editorial:TheSunFootball:TwImageandlink:Statement:Sport
TBH I think his original twitter posts were a bit misinterpreted, much of what he says there is true. Something that many on here have mentioned a LOT is that managers often have a short shelf life at each club, so need to deliver results, and often they don't trust inexperienced youth players over experienced top flight and international players. I can see his point.

oh dear, I think the reason for the interview is nothing to do with youth players being held back and all about lowering expectations. cunt talking about balancing the books but anyone who looked at our dealings last season knows we were in profit. says they're looking at ONE striker signing, next level my fat hairy arse

"Easier to bring Paul Allen in to the 1980 cup final as Brooking was the only international in the side. Nowadays a cup final would involve 30 odd internationals"
He knows his history!!!!!!!

Concentrating exclusively on bringing in new strikers but as ringing players in from Europe failed last year they must have premier experience. Not interested in the likes of Tammy Abraham as not experienced enough.
Cutting down the options a bit. Seems like the eggs are in the Giroud basket.

Setting it up for us not signing anyone by narrowing their options to almost impossibility I see.
What a surprise.

What a load of bullshit.
Who's putting pressure on the manager not to buy or play young players? It's not the fans.
It's the owners.

I love a bit of pedanticism as much as the next whoer, but none of these were internationals at the time, Parkes only played for England once and that was 6 years earlier!

Really Trev? Why do you think I said "not forgetting the likes of" as they went on to become internationals. Does everything always need to be spelt out for some people?

The question should have been why have you sold the club down the river for absolutely fuck all reason you beardy old cunt?

So a cup final would involve 30 internationals - 15 players a side then
If he is including subs, there was only one a side in 1980, Bobby Gould was ours
Oh and that Arsenal side was loaded with internationals
On the subject of youth - Spurs do all right with them, Everton too
Gold was talking rot
