Hope the young lads are all paying attention to our star striker Lewis Pirie since leaving for Leeds. Played as a trialist for Cove against our some of the guys he left behind (who are on loan at ICT). He'd have likely had a few appearances for us by now, given he was ahead of Bavidge in the order of things. At the very least, he'd still be getting paid by us with the option of a loan to Cove, rather than having no club.

Not quite the normal situation here. Had offers down south (championship), but opted for a move home for a reset for other reasons.

Fair doos. We should re-sign him then loan him to Cove. He's one I thought would turn into a player. Plenty of time on his side.

Aye was going to ask WTF that was about. Anything to avoid using the term youth team I suppose. Our and other premier league sides have our kids in this tournament just devalues it for other teams.

Not sure that team can be called "young", Jamie, Ryan and Kenny are not exactly spring chickens and Drew must be approaching 80 by now

It's like the lower league teams are going to be grateful playing against emerging talent that will do amazing things for Scottish fitba, as if they'll get any benefit from it whatsoever. I guess they'll get to check out their future players.
