    Bounce games to be organised for them to get them back to match fitness. I heard that the academy kids were frustrated in not getting any regular games. Strain & Nammo are just getting minutes here and there. Yet we have the agreement with Airdrie where we can send some players age permitting back and forth to get game time.

    FFS how did Dailly, McKinnon, McKinlay, Bollan, Ferguson, Connolly & O'Neil get into the first team and when in, not look out of place? Reserve team football. Stating the bleeding obvious but it worked, none of this age restricted pish or having agreements in place. Reserve games got decent fans turning out to see them at the actual stadium where we play our home games.

    I know this is a subject close to your heart and i agree with you 100% regarding the benefits of a proper reserve league.What i don't agree with would be playing the games at Tannadice as the pitch would be ruined by December/January and more 1st team games would be postponed.

    You really only need to see footage of us in the 80's to see the state of the pitch when we were playing games in the winter,now back then everybody just accepted it along with the tackle from behind but in this age of player protection and health and safety you just know that ref's are being told to call the game off if they think there are safety concern's.
