With the positive message coming from the youth department it looks like we could be emerging from the dark days of Sinky, although it won't happen over night. I am looking forward to watching all age groups in the season ahead. I would now expect that the suitability of the coaches to this new philosophy be looked at. The record of youth scouts in player recruitment also needs be examined and those that don't bring players of the required standard removed. Maybe sometime soon the Junior Academy will stop losing players to Celtic.

It is a bit early to say and Dumbarton never really provided much of a challenge. It will become clearer when the competitive games start.

Report on tonight's game https://rfcyouths.wordpress.com/2015/04/07/home-win-at-forthbank-for-youths/ Max Ashmore is an Under 17 regular, left footed central midfielder That link to the official site still has six players pictured no longer at the club. Four of whom left before the season's first transfer window had shut.

Now updated the post, for the record the OG was scored by Jack Baird who coincidently was previously with Rangers.

The main reason I started the youth blog all those years ago was the almost non existent coverage on the official site. For sometime the official site have regularly used an edited version of my match reports. Where as I don't really mind anybody using anything I post on the blog, It would be common courtesy to let me know their intentions. Especially when not so long ago I received a threatening e-mail from the official club photographer wrongly accusing me of using one of his copyrighted photographs. Taking in last night's Development League game under the heavy rain and floodlights the numbers on the St.Mirren strips were pretty difficult to make out. So when a Saints defender turned the ball into his own net I wasn't quite sure who had scored the OG. So just to see what would happen I credited the goal not to a Saints defender but to a regular follower of Rangers youths. https://rfcyouths.wordpress.com/2015/03/30/development-league-win-in-paisley/ As you can see the "goalscorer" is not even listed in the St.Mirren squad. So I had a wee chuckle when I read the official match report today. http://www.rangers.co.uk/news/galleries/item/8942-gallery-under-20s-defeat-saints Well at least he now has documentary evidence from the official website that he "scored a goal for Rangers". I have now clarified who actually scored that goal and will update the post later this week.

They were decent enough with no real standouts, Greg Shields son was playing and he came to notice when he cynically took Dylan Patterson out after he skinned him. They were better then most Scottish pro youth teams at U14's, although they did have a few 15's as they work to a similar age profile as the English teams. They will beat Dunfermline and could also beat Hearts but I would expect Celtic's very big 14's side to beat them.
