Levein and Cathro developed the idea at Tannadice and Wotte was tasked by Levein to bring them on for the SFA I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JECK Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Aye but Harry Potter/Avril/nae strikers etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tartanmartin Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Wotte was tasked to implement the recommendations from Henry McLeish's review. Suggesting this came from Levein is revisionism but I do totally agree that Cathro's youth development at Dundee Utd was very successful.

"Performance director Mark Wotte says 2020 will determine whether the Scottish FA's regional performance school project is a success. Wotte, who says it is the first of its kind in the world, launched the scheme along with Scotland coach Craig Levein." BBC McLeish suggested the schools in his review, but Levein appointed Wotte and they set the schools up. Without Levein there would've been no Performance Schools.

tartanmartin Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 http://www.scottishfa.co.uk/resources/documents/SFAPublications/ScottishFAPublications2015-16/Scotland United II.pdf suggests all the recommendations were from Henry McLeish. I don't see Levein getting any mention in either the above or it's predecessor which was the "original" vision: http://www.scottishfa.co.uk/resources/documents/SFAPublications/ScottishFApublications2011-12/Scotland United 2011.pdf These would have happened regardless of Levein being in post.
