Poetry_In_Blue 1,043 Posted August 10, 2016 Author Share Posted August 10, 2016 Report on the official site: http://rangers.co.uk/news/academy-news/rangers-u20-4-stirling-uni-0/ Are we at home for the next round and if so I really hope the club does more to advertise this and have them playing at Ibrox as I'm sure a few thousand fans would happily go and support them. On top of that it gives the youngsters a chance to play at Ibrox and get a feel of the place, Just checked next round will be a home tie for us.

I get the feeling the club really do not care for having any sort of crowd at U20 games, the cost of security probably would outweigh the gate money.

First I've seen them tonight (although I've seen most of them across various other sides) and I was impressed. Thought they executed the tactics really well and played with an intensity, in the first half especially, that the first team could really learn from.

I'm sure they are using Forthbank as their home venue this year. just under 500 there last night was a decent turnout. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a few players in that group that could progress, you would have to bear in mind the quality of opponents last night. This is a young Under 20 side, I've already stated a few times we only have two under 20 players on the books, both played last night but as they are at other clubs on loan they may not feature too much. The starting lineup was made up of those two U20's, four 19's, three 18's and two 17's. with the bench made up of three 19's, three 18's and a 17. Rangers use of over age players in the league will be minimal, some games they could face the max of six overage players in the opposition. It will be a good test for them and I'm looking forward to see how they cope and if the can progress. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not sure if the club's put it out yet but it's next Wednesday at Forthbank at 7.45) I've got a feeling too that after the way the colt teams have largely excelled in the first round that they will get a bye into the next round in 2017. I think Hardie and Thompson will only feature for the 20's in the cup. Can't see them coming back to play dev league games if they are getting first team football out on loan. Do you think there can be more read into only Hardie & Thompson being recalled (out of the boys on loan) for it or do you think it's more that they are more "crucial" to our success in the Irn Bru Cup than, for example, Scott Roberts?

We can only play Under 20 players in the Challenge Cup, Hardie and Thompson are on Development loans so can play Under 20 games. Roberts, Walsh and Kelly are all now Under 21 players, therefore can't play in the Challenge Cup and can't play in the Development League while out on loan.
