So now that the deals for both Daniel and Gavin have been finalised, only now do I think it appropriate to comment.
Having whiteness both these boys playing as teenagers in a physical East of Scotland league it was obvious they were both destined for higher things. It was a pleasure watching two lightweight youngsters more than holding their own and often standing out and staring in the games they played.
It’s great to see both these players move on to higher things and I wouldn’t be surprised if they move on to even bigger clubs. No disrespect to Queen of the South but these guys are now playing with better players and will have the use of better facilities and coaching so they should only improve.
From a personal point of view it’s pleasing to see both these guy’s move on and Daniel going to Hibs is great, Gavin going to the dark side of the city well, but if he plays as well as the last Reilly did in Edinburgh, which I’m sure he will he’ll be a big hit.
There are some very small minded people on here and we are all aloud to have our opinion but I think for those who are sad enough to troll through previous posts of mine I think you’ll find I have been totally vindicated in everything I’ve said in the past. I’m sure some will take pleasure in responding to this post.
Good luck to both these players as their careers move on to a bigger chapter. Stick in lads.
