U21 team for tonight. Might get there for half time at this rate. Edinburgh traffic at its finest.

Individual errors from players who are not good enough for international football cost us tonight. Ralston isn’t even good enough for his club side. I think we have to stop picking players who are not playing regularly at club level.

There was a suggestion last week that Clarkson was targeting the Motherwell game for his return. Would assume if both are fit Clarkson would play in behind the striker with McGrath wide left. Hopefully club can persuade McGrath to extend his contract but have a suspicion he might want to see what’s available.

More games moved for Europe. At least only one home game being moved.

Good news that. Would hate to have just signed up to Premier Sports recently to see the away game. Does anyone know where you go on the Premier Sport site to cancel a subscription.

Rovers appoint Neill Collins as manager. Was sacked by Barnsley last season with them in play off places.

Not really youths but Aberdeen XI beat Cove 2-0 in a testimonial match for Blair Yule. Dons goals from Morris and Nisbet.

Dundee keeper Jon McCracken also called up.

Draw for UEFA youth competition was this morning.

I was surprised at is age when I looked him up. Seems to have played most of his career in English non leagues. Other County player who I liked the look of was Ronan Hale. Worked our back line and was unlucky with goal that was chopped off and not much wrong with penalty that Mitov saved. Another worth keeping an eye on.

Was a really good game. Girona seem to go with 1 up front away from home and Abel Ruiz seems to be the one they go with for that role.

1st round draw made earlier. Ties to be played weekend of 28th September.

Looks like a race between Tribute Act and their Edinburgh cousins as to who will empty their manager first.

All that you can do is watch them play

Fantastic save by Mitov on the penalty.

Don’t think either the free kick or Rubi’s follow up crossed the line.

Think yellow was correct call as studs weren’t up and he was on ground. Poor first half and we have created little since McGrath went off. Would like to see Besuijen on.

Todays results. First round proper is drawn tomorrow.

Would think we will go with same starting XI as last week although I would be tempted to start Nisbet if he is up to speed. County have looked rotten the twice I have seen them and from what their fans are saying really weak wide. Think we should be looking at winning this comfortably. Another shit kick off time and our shite public transport system means I am missing another game. oot Edinburgh City v Peterhead flat for game on tv flat 3-0 Sokler x2 Nisbet

Bavidge to Ayr United confirmed. Decent move for him and should help him develop further.

First of the two second preliminary round ties were tonight. Bo’ness Athletic from the East of Scotland 2nd division beat West of Scotland Premier side Kilwinning Rangers 2-0 and East of Scotland Premier side Tynecastle beat Glasgow Uni of West of Scotland 3rd division side 4-0. Was at Meggetland for the Tynecastle game and it is a great stadium to watch football at and better than some league grounds.

Disagree that squad is stronger. Think first XI is strong but the cover is still pretty weak. However accept squad depth was never going to be sorted in one window.

Move to a Championship club would be great for him plus working with an Aberdeen legend.

With Nisbet, Sokler and probably Gueye all ahead of him I think Ambrose at 22 would benefit from going on loan to give him game time and get him used to the game here.
