Keep up the good work lads - hope City have sell on clauses for you if they know who you are !

[surely not!]

Might help to explain why so few youth products make it into the city first team. Bigger fish to fry.

Agreed...City are a great example of how a club should be run from top to bottom....player development should always be number one priority, the post above puts the so called big clubs like Spartans to shame.

[Mr Tee]

These guys all came through the same youth set up and are all the same age? Sounds like some team, did you they win everything?

Well done to City, clearly doing a lot of very good things down there.

I think that any youths going onto play the highest standard of football they can is fantastic, whichever club it is, but how and why would Spartans get mentioned in this?

Ginge lad, as you'll see I'm no longer biting by replying to Brucie, he's obviously got a grudge against us, he's only done a dozen posts & most of them are against us, poor lad nowt better to do wi his time than have a go at us.

But as Oscar Wilde once said "the only thing worse than being talked about, is not being talked about".

So leave him to post about his team Other fc, they must be good but dunno what league they play in?

Anyone who can't put who they support rather than just post about not supporting Spartans, well best to leave them to their sad lives eh?

This would all sound much better if it was an observer from outside letting us know.

He's fishing for Grim. He will bite when Santa brings him a new set of teeth or when he gets a feed of beer in him, whatever comes first.

Nice to finally see Gavin Reilly is getting his chance at Queen Of The South and receiving some rave publicity from the national media.

Gretna must be doing something right down there as I see one of their sixteen year old academy players scored the winner against Edinburgh City last weekend. Hope the management team keep up the good work.



Good to see youngsters breaking through at a number of clubs now. Everyone keep the good work,

Civil have got wee Henry coming through the ranks, one to watch out for.

Leith Ath are a fine example of developing youth players and most off the current EOS team could still play under 21s

I agree Leith are good at developing young players however I think they have to many in there first team and could do with signing a few more expieranced players, if they don't they will get relegarted.
