Pinning this topic for anyone following the development league (U-20's) and for any words of wisdom, match  reports etc.

First league game of new season is 19:00 hrs k.o on Tuesday 23rd August at TCS v Motherwell.

At the moment all matches appear to be scheduled for Monday or Tuesday nights (19:00 hrs) but that could well change. Full fixture list can be found here http://spfl.co.uk/development-league/dev-fixtures/

Didn't know where to put this.

 

Delighted for the lad. Was never convinced by him in the Development games I saw, he seemed to have a bit of a 'prima donna' type attitude. Glad to see him making an impact and hopefully the Highland League will toughen him up a bit! 

Oh well, the turn around in form has taken a bit of a dent. 

Aberdeen 3-0 ICT...Miles Storey scoring one of them.

How happy he must be that he decided to go to Aberdeen and continue his career improvement.

 

I'll put this in here as it isn't really a senior tournament but why haven't the club entered the North of Scotland Cup this year? Don't the club want to pit themselves against the likes of Invergordon, Golspie Sutherland and Tain St Duthus?!

Unsurprising turnaround in form, given that we've shipped half of the young lads out on loan + Sutherland has left altogether. Gives others a chance, I suppose....

....... but Brown, MacLennan and Wilson are still allowed to play for our Development side?

U20's go out on what's called a "Development Loan" and this allows them to still play these games for their home club.  The Brown referred to is Chris and not Jason....as he's no longer in the U20's then he's out on standard loan terms and can't play in development matches.

Aberdeen had a front 3 of Stockley , Pawlett and Storey , all of them would walk into our senior starting 11 so 3 nil maybe wasn't so bad a result .

Stockley and Storey would walk in. Pawlett wouldn't stay upright long enough.

How true!

Polworth is RB for the second half.

Subs: MacDonald, Chalmers, Henry

 

3' Great ball crossed in by Sam Lidington but it was quickly headed clear by the Caley defence

7' Frizzell sent a good through ball towards McLean but the ball was blocked and then cleared by Brown

9' Dangerous ball sent into the box by MacLellan but it was superbly held by Lyle

16' CLOSE! The ball fell to Kier Smith 8 yards from goal but his effort went narrowly wide of the left post.. Still 0-0 here at Rugby Park

18' GOOOAAALLLL KILLIE! A superb cross by Scott McLean was met by Dean Hawkshaw, who's excellent header sailed into the net! 1-0 Killie

19' Almost a second! Great ball in from Taylor Queen to Innes Cameron but he could only guide his header a fraction past the left post

24' Good effort from McLean, who turned his marker before unleashing a strike at goal but the ball went just wide

32' Good ball played through towards Innes Cameron but he was denied any further advance at goal by the Caley defence

38' Good ball sent in by the visitors for Jamie Wilson but his header went high over the crossbar

45' Superb effort from McLean, who forced keeper Foster into making an excellent save!

50' Kier Smith had an effort at goal but it was held comfortably by Lyle

57' GOOOOAAAAL KILLIE! Sublime corner from McLean to Cameron, who headed past Foster! 2-0 Killie

69' What an effort from Kiltie, who's strike from distance rattled off the bar!

75' Caley free kick.. Taken by MacLellan but his effort sailed high over the bar

79' Superb skill from Scott McLean, who dodged three Caley defenders before sending the ball just wide of the target!

84' Killie free kick.. Taken quickly to Kiltie, who scooped the ball in the box for Graham but Caley cleared the threat

Don't worry - Statistically there is a 59% chance that we will score and a 25% chance that we will equalise.
