Yes you can, but I don't know if there will be many there this season. Under 20 games are being played at Dumbarton and Ibrox. Youth Cup games may be played there.

17′s Edge Out Queen’s Park Report from today's game http://rfcyouths.wordpress.com/2013/08/24/17s-edge-out-queens-park/

From what I can gather it was one of the French Regional Academies but I haven't been able to find out which one, I assume they are using the facility at Largs and that is why the game was there and not Murray Park. I don't know As I said in the report the Rangers team looked to be older and bullied them a bit first half and probably should have been more than two goals ahead. The French coaches changed things a bit second half and they were the dominant team. Rangers still tend to use Sinky's "hit the striker early" tactics, while the French played a passing game as you would expect. I wouldn't say any of their players stood out, but they played as a team.

Rangers Face French Academy Report on tonight's game http://rfcyouths.wordpress.com/2013/08/20/rangers-face-french-academy/

Some Positive News At Youth Level For the first time in a while Rangers have the largest representation in a youth squad, long may it continue. U16's Squad Goalkeepers Ross Doohan (Celtic) Ryan Booth (Dundee United) Defenders Ross McCrorie (Rangers) Ross Lyon (Rangers) Leon Jones (Heart of Midlothian) Daniel Higgins (Celtic) Lewis White (Rangers) Jack McMahon (St Mirren) Midfielders Sean McKirdy (Heart of Midlothian) Frank Ross (Aberdeen) Ben Stirling (Hibernian) Joshua Laws (Fortuna Dusseldorf) Charlie Gilmour (Arsenal) Regan Hendry (Celtic) Kyle Clark (Rangers) Forwards Alistair Coote (Dundee United) Calvin Miller (Celtic) Josh Jeffries (Rangers) Ryan Watters (Motherwell) Ross Lyon, Ross McCrorie and Josh Jeffries have been at Rangers since a young age. Ross Lyon is attracting interest from EPL sides, a player with good technique plays in midfield or at right-back on occassions. Ross McCrorie is a centre-back , he hasn’t quite had the same profile as his brother Robbie but that could change in the future. An accomplished defender who is progressing well. Josh Jeffries is a skilful attacking player. I believe his best position would be supporting the main striker but has played in a variety of attacking roles. Lewis White joined from Musselburgh Windsor a couple of years ago, he has really taken off since moving to left-back. Was in the Hibernian youth system a few years ago, exciting attacking full-back who gets forward at every opportunity. Kyle Clark is a new recruit who was previously at Dundee, as yet I haven't seen him play, but should rectify that this weekend.

He seems to have jumped a head of Tom Walsh at the moment although they are not the same type of player. I thought him or Luca might have got on when the game was safe last week.

A couple of reports to catch up on http://rfcyouths.wordpress.com/2013/08/11/u15s-outplayed-by-hibernian/ http://rfcyouths.wordpress.com/2013/08/11/garry-lynch-memorial-game/

Young team myth. Of the starting lineup only McLeod, and subs Aird & McKay would not be an overage player in the U20's league.
-
Of the 14 players the played yesterday McCoist gave EIGHT of them new contracts last season, in addition he paid a significant fee for Templeton. That only leaves McCulloch, Wallace and Little who were already at the club and "free agent" signings Faure and Black. If he doesn't think these payers are good enough, why did he sanction new contracts for so many ?

Emphatic Pre- Season Win For U15′s Report on today's game at Murray Park http://rfcyouths.wordpress.com/2013/08/04/emphatic-pre-season-win-for-u15s/

I only got along to the Carlisle game, they were more experienced (front two of Lee Miller & Lewis Guy) and Rangers were a bit unlucky. Dunfermline team had an average age of 18, including two Sinclair released that I have highlighted in the past, Lewis Martin & Lewis Spence. I have not found any details of the Killie & Thistle teams. I would point out we will have a young Under 20 this season with only three final year U20's on our books. Having said that I have also pointed out the steady regression under Sinclair. The17/18's have also played four pre-season games. Only win was against Stirling Uni, drew with Sheffield United, lost to Dundee (2-3) and Sunderland (2-4).
-
Already played five friendlies beating Dundee United 3-1. losing to Dunferline (1-2), Kilmarnock (0-1), Carlisle (2-3) and Thistle (0-1).

CRO Article :Ally: you can't have everything in the aisle
elfideldo replied to forlanssister's topic in Rangers Chat
New contracts for Hegarty, Naismith and Mitchell now seem totally bizarre. Where as Steven Smith and Ricky Foster are a decent standard for where we are, younger alternatives of a similar standard with potential to improve such as Tom Hateley and Ryan McGivern would have been better options in my opinion. -
I don't know for sure, I was only getting brief details and the message I got was "They were disqualified because one of the subs took a penalty". Its not quite a simple, youth football can be different and where a rolling subs are used its normally any of the squad that can take the penalties. But I'm sure the rules for this tournament were laid out before the start.
