    Would make FA Cups and League Cups interesting. Would the reserves give the first team a bye, or try to win?

    I'm guessing the B teams wouldnt be allowed to enter any competitions that the Senior team are in, so they wouldnt be in the fa or league cups
    They used to allow it in Spain, then this happened

    An English player in the Madrid squad! First English player in the clubs history, obviously the Spanish National Side went downhill from that moment...
    It's funny, I'm sure Spain will be the example proponents if feeder clubs use however I'd say their ability to produce superior players, and more of them is more down to the much larger numbers of qualified coaches they have working at a grass roots level
