You're absolutely right, Cashy, but forgetting that this is just another example of political tokenism.
One sage observer (Thomas Sowell) suggested that the last few decades have seen all decisions by organisations move from what works best to what sounds best.
Unless that one player IS good enough to play in the first team, all it means is that there is going to be one less person on the team sheet who should be there.
