CammyF 2,780 Posted Saturday at 13:15 Share Posted Saturday at 13:15 Very decent performance from a 2nd / 3rd string team. Great goals from Itten, Lowry and McKinnon and thought Divine and Sands were excellent throughout 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMAA 2,824 Posted Saturday at 13:19 Share Posted Saturday at 13:19 Well done to the youngsters and the under-studies. Don't forget that it isn't easy to come in from the cold like that so well done to them all. Same 11 for a week today then or should Cole Mackinnon start? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSocksRedTops 1,996 Posted Saturday at 13:21 Share Posted Saturday at 13:21 I know it's possibly easier to comment on this with hindsight but I feel we have managed the team/squad in the last 3 league games well considering we have 2 finals around the corner. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbr 1,091 Posted Saturday at 14:10 Share Posted Saturday at 14:10 At some point we are going to have to give some of these young players , our own youth , a chance . We need to stop bringing in EPL youngsters on loan and paying fees . Our youngsters were all excellent today . 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gisabeer 254 Posted Saturday at 15:00 Share Posted Saturday at 15:00 They all impress with every game. Lowry's goal was outstanding start to finish. They could save the club a fortune. I would have no qualms if Gio went with them all next season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 4,974 Posted Saturday at 15:03 Share Posted Saturday at 15:03 I don't see why they can't play now? Lowry can be a starter now, and will be a star player if he progresses. King and McCann can come on in the last 10-20 minutes in games, with the odd start. They have done nothing wrong and look composed. Devine is further behind because I think Zukowski is ahead of him, and then there's Taverneir in front. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 4,974 Posted Saturday at 15:06 Share Posted Saturday at 15:06 I was thinking, we have a few loanees too, but are they ahead of King, McCann and Lowry. I don't think so; not at all. That's certainly a mark against the loanee system, and a mark in favour of the B-team. Middleton is playing regularly in the Premiership - albeit at St Johnstone. Is he better than Lowry? Pfft... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to stop bringing in EPL youngsters on loan and paying fees . Our youngsters were all excellent today . I am optimistic that, given the entire backroom staff is Dutch, this will come to pass. Generally, you can't fault them in this regard. If they are good enough..... Advocaat threw BF into the 1st team, and he never looked back. I always recall that Edgar Davids was bossing the Ajax midfield at the age of 16. Yes, Ajax! Yes, 16! OK, he was exceptional, but he wasn't wasting his time playing against Stenhousemuir, or Montrose (or their Dutch equivalents, if such there is). Of course, the players, themselves, have to show that they want it. Carpe diem, as we say down Govan way. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
