    Thanks elfideldo.

     

    No doubt Celtic will be having a "crisis meeting" this week.....

     

    And people like Alex Rae will probably still be lamenting the lack of youths that step up to the first team....

     

    I know not everyone finds Mulholland to be their cup of tea - but those youth results are very encouraging.

     

    Do you know if Mackenzie Carse played for Celtic in that U15 game against his former team-mates ?

    Saturday's game clashed with the first team game and I was at another game yesterday morning ( I was asked not to report on that game). So didn't get to any of these CAS fixtures.

     

    Early days but I think the setup is a big improvement, havent seen any talented players released because of their size (interesting piece in Sunday Times about Greg Taylor). Players that are brought in is for their football ability and not because they are "athletes".

     

    U15's game is very interesting and would like to know the  lineups, I believe this is the first time this group has beaten Celtic over a 90 minute game (They did beat them in short game at the Youdan tournament a couple of years ago).

     

    Celtic have four U15's that regularly play up at 16's, three of whom are Rangers fans but when it came to a choice chose them, Mackenzie Carse isn't one of them. Three of the four are in Scotland's Victory Shield squad. It would be interesting to find out if they played on Saturday. I know Rangers fielded three players from Northern Ireland, they could also have played Leon King, but I don't think they would have.

     

    Mackenzie Carse was trying to get out of Celtic not that long ago, Rangers opted not to take him back (pretty sure it wasn't down to his ability).  I would assume he was playing on Saturday.

     

    Celtic requested four overage players in the U16's game, Rangers agreed to two, Celtic said they couldn't field a team.

    Couple of good results for the young Bears today.

     

    Both the U15’s (3-1) and U13’s (5-2) beat their Celtic counterparts.  Not sure of the others

    Didn't get to any of these games. I believe the U14's also won 3-1. The U16's game was cancelled.

    Superb achievement elf , love reading your blog .

     

    We question , how good is Robbie Ure , does he have a chance 

    I try to keep the blog as a vehicle for match reports and keep my opinions on players out of it.

     

    Obviously players in each group are at different levels, but as I have a kinda relationship with the players and parents I keep my opinions on individuals to myself.

     

    So forgive me for not discussing any of the younger youth players on an open forum.
