I do think in the past we have been guilty of not using youth players and sometimes getting rid too early having spent the time and effort bringing these players through the youth system.
However, the current management team seem not to be afraid to use the young players when appropriate but these occasions may be fewer in the spl.
i have seen Kyle play a few times. The only time I was nervous for him was in the north cup final when he himself appeared nervous and unsure at times but we still managed to win so he did fine in the end.I would worry about not having an experienced no 2 keeper to Esson (asuming he stays).This is not a reflection on Kyles ability just as Oddquine states we dont know how he would perform if called upon.
