Guest bearwhocares Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 To John Fleck who is sixteen today and is eligible for the first team. One of the most exciting young Scottish prospects for years.John has an excellent chance of being on the bench at Rugby Park tomorrow.With the under 21 rule he looks a certainty to be in the squad.It would be great if we were 3 goals up with 10 minutes left and Walter gave the lad his chance. Happy birthday wee man !! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,148 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 I'll second that mate.... The wee man is a great prospect and while he may not feature tomorrow, he'll certainly make his first team debut sooner rather than later...

pete 2,499 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 I seen him when he came on in Germany and he did impress me for the 15mins he was on. I don't think we should rush him too much though, but Derek Johnstone and Clarence Seedorf are examples of young players who did make it in the first team so early. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Ally 0 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Would be great to see him sometime soon. I know he played in one of the friendlies in Germany. Fans need to be patient with him though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's the first time i've seen DJ's name in the same sentence as Seedorf!! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewarty 1,876 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Anyone know if he's in the squad for the game tomorrow? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 I think that's the first time i've seen DJ's name in the same sentence as Seedorf!! Derek Johnstone is maybe a crap journalist but he was a great football player. Unfortunately he liked his vodka too much to have been world class. He is one of the few players who could play Centre-half as well as striker. Derek was a natural strong guy when he was sixteen. Seedorf is maybe a far more technical player but i would question if his build as a sixteen year old was natural. No drug tests were done in these days. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
