Pash Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 He is an attacking winger (I think?) with a wand of a left foot. @ericblack4bosswill ken his dad. Link to comment

He's probably more of a wide player but he's got a great shot on him and good on the ball. Absolutely wasting himself playing u18s football but at least he's showing a good attitude. Link to comment

If you have the ability, you should be selected. A start has been made with McKenzie and Ramsay and it’s is only right that others should be given an opportunity if playing well for development team. 1 Link to comment

slippers Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Disappointed to see Ryan Duncan going out on loan. Would of liked him to be given a chance if he’s an attacking mid/winger as people suggest. Crying out for players in that department! Been on absolute fire on U18s. It’s a big step up but surely not any worse than players like jenks? Link to comment

If the likes of Hedges is sold, Jenks goes back, Kennedy sold etc, then he can maybe come back & step up. Link to comment

Yeah the move till January suggests they hope he will make the step up and perhaps return to our first team in January. Link to comment
Pash Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Hopefully he carries on his impressive development, his head is screwed on so no worries about that. Link to comment

aberdeen1970 Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Is this a new loan or has he been there for a while? If it's a new loan then maybe they should have given him a shotty first before discounting him for the next few months. Link to comment

Ten Caat Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 It's a good move for the loon. 90 minutes every week in SFL1 will be far better for his development than playing age group football or maybe getting the odd 10-15 minutes once or twice. If he does well there, he can come back in January and maybe have a decent chance of at least being a regular member of our first team squad. Link to comment
daytripping Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Luke Turner getting a start for top of the league Cliftonville in Northern Ireland, that's not a bad standard these days, lot of teams in that league we wouldn't live with. I'd like to say I hope he keeps doing well and comes back to get his chance here but he won't. Loan usually spells the end of the road with the dons. Link to comment
Don_Corleone Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Why did they end the old reserve league? We've got heaps of players hanging around who never get games for the first team but are too old for the youth teams - if they ever are called upon for the first team they're going to be miles away from match fitness. The reserve league gave young players opportunity to play with and against older and better players which is surely much more valuable than just playing people your own age group. I know it's been this way for years, but what was the justification for it? Link to comment
