To be honest it has got a lot to do with the parents and what you are saying may not be accurate, as some middle class parents can't afford the time to take their kids to training sesions because they work so many hours and so fourth.

I take my oldest kid to Walsall Academy and hopefully he will go on trials to Villla in a few years time.

And my youngest son will start in two years time hopefully at Walsall too.

But the thing is parents encouraging kids to enjoy more than imposing it.
