glasgow sheep Posted August 19, 2012 Author Report Posted August 19, 2012 Just watched the highlights on RedTV Few observations. 1) Some good goals and think we have some great young players coming through, even if just a couple of them make the step up the future looks promising. 2) Saints u20s looks as rotten as their first team squad 3) We desperately need to get our facilities sorted so we're not playing on a public park. I see more of the u20 games are being played at the clubs main stadium now so perhaps it was only being played in a public park because of the ManU game the same night. Quote

I see more of the u20 games are being played at the clubs main stadium now so perhaps it was only being played in a public park because of the ManU game the same night. Apparently we are now supposed to use main stadium for these games if possible. Also all games supposed to be 7pm kick offs but Caley County and ourselves allowed to have games moved to 2pm. Quote
Tyrant Posted August 20, 2012 Report Posted August 20, 2012 I would go to a lot of them if they were 7pm kick offs at Pittodrie. Quote
Jute Posted August 20, 2012 Report Posted August 20, 2012 I would go to a lot of them if they were 7pm kick offs at Pittodrie. I would go to any of the away games in Edinburgh and Dunfermline if they were 7pm kick offs but Dons seem to prefer the 2pm slot. Quote
Tyrant Posted August 20, 2012 Report Posted August 20, 2012 Which is nae use to any of us except Dave_min. Quote

glasgow sheep Posted August 21, 2012 Author Report Posted August 21, 2012 0-3 loss to Killie today Apparently we were missing quite a few kids for various reasons, shame as two great results to start the season off with. Quote

glasgow sheep Posted October 23, 2012 Author Report Posted October 23, 2012 Gary Naysmith captaining the team tonight. Great news Quote
glasgow sheep Posted October 23, 2012 Author Report Posted October 23, 2012 2-1 up at ht, both from Cammy Aberdeeen | Danny Rogers, Craig Duguid, Gary Naysmith, Craig Murray, Joe Shaughnessy, Michael Rose, Alan O'Sullivan, Stephen O'Neil, Declan McManus, Cammy Smith, Rob Milsom Subs | Scott MacAulay, Scott Rumsby, Kieran Gibbons, Craig Storrie, Jamie Hamilton, Marcus Campanile Quote
dave_min Posted October 23, 2012 Report Posted October 23, 2012 It's 5-1 now. McManus Hattrick. Quote
Penfold Posted October 23, 2012 Report Posted October 23, 2012 Boy must be close to some first team action. Scores every game he plays. Quote
Stewart Posted October 23, 2012 Report Posted October 23, 2012 Another good win for the 20s tonight. Naysmith strolled through it and came off after 55 minutes. I reckon he'll get a start on Saturday. Was really impressed with Craig Duguid again tonight. Started off at right back but moved to left back once Naysmith went off. Looks comfortable with both feet which can only be a good thing if he's playing right and left back at times. He didn't have much to do but Rogers looked good again I thought. Seems to have good handling and comes out for balls at corners well. McManus and Smith both deserve some time in the first team I reckon. As Penfold says, McManus seems to score in every game and Smith looks a very clever player. Milsom was quiet to begin with but came in to it a bit more later on. Good to see him get a good run out again. Quote
Tyrant Posted October 24, 2012 Report Posted October 24, 2012 Boy must be close to some first team action. Scores every game he plays. His goal where he took the ball on the half way line on the left hand side and just ran past the Motherwell defence before finishing it neatly into the far corner was superb. I couldn't believe my eyes.. a Dons striker with pace! And his finishing looks top class as well. Agree re first team action soon. Must get his chance before long. He looks an excellent player. As many of our under 20s do. Also noted a decent save from Big Jim Leighton in the second half when someone smashed the ball into the stand. It was heading straight for Paw Broon's coupon when Jim, who was sitting in front of Broon stopped it. However he failed to hold it and parried it out. JMG. Quote
