In a wide-ranging interview which covers everything from the new Main Stand to work on the squad, Parish reflected on the Academy's significance both to its aspiring players and the wider club.
He said: "Outside of family and with everything that’s going on, it’s just the best thing in my life. It’s fantastic. It’s fantastic for everybody inside the club to see that progress. I hope it’s fantastic for the supporters; this is something that will stand the club in good stead for the next 100 years.
