To be fair the U20 squad has no expectations this season for the reasons already stated. The 17's however are doing fantastically well, and i'm happy for this to continue if it means lads are getting regular first team football.

Was mentioned in the game the other night that the U17s beat celtic on sunday.

I wouldn't be surprised if Durrant gets replaced in the summer to be honest. I appreciate that the u20 games aren't being treated very seriously by Warburton et al, but I think we've had a few too many poor defeats even when we've been able to put out a good side. I'm not saying I definitely think it'll happen, just that I can see it being a fair possibility.

Scrap the under 20's unless we can guarantee a more competitive structure. It seems to serve no purpose as a gateway for players especially as we seem to be fortunate to be able to loan a good majority out.

Either that or only play the U17s in U20 games. All our youths need to be playing 'up' the scale if they're going to develop properly.

Another goal for Hardie for Raith against St. Mirren. Glad to see he's hit the ground running there.

Can't beat that. I really hope the boy gets a crack at a first team spot for us at some point.
