    Well, at least we know that Findlay is more than good enough for the Championship :50:

    I guess he'll get his chance in pre-season and if he's not good enough it would be nice to see him get a loan to a premiership side

    Have you seen him play or are you going by reputation? Just curious

    Findlay, Miller, Thomson and McMullan seem to be the best at the minute.

    Seems to always be the same story though.. Irvine, Toshney, Fraser were all the next big thing at some stage.

    Has Irvine left? He must be old at this stage probably no chance now

    He's 22 and on loan at Ross County this season. I thought he had already left but Id imagine he's as good as gone at this stage.

    Joe Thomson seems to be the one going by reports,I haven't saw him play though,could be pish.If Henderson is loaned out,could be a space for Thomson to get a couple of games under his belt

    Messi's going to move to Glasgow and bring his kids up here and put them through the academy.... And then I woke up.

    Who was the lad that was on the bench a couple of times then broke his leg in Dec-Jan?

    I'm quite excited about Thomson now. :smiley-laughing002:

    It would be good to see him before the end of this season.

    What about Lindsay?

    Think he's back playing actually. Was a broken ankle. Thought
    It was a leg break.

    I am actually, that doesn't mean I think players will make it when I don't think they're good enough though.

    He has a reputation?

    I've seen him play numerous times. He's better than O'Connell but that's not saying much.

    Thomson is gallus, the type of player that's been the best at every age group he has played. I think he has a real chance.

    Played tonight.

    With uncertainty over the futures of Van Dijk and Denayer, O' Connell should get a run.

    I think it's time for Joe Thomson to get some 1st team football wit Henderson away on loan? Thoughts?

    Definitely. I'd have him on the bench on Friday.

    What do you guys think of Aidan McIlduff? I remember him putting in a good shift against Barcelona in the UEFA Youth League. Is Waters the better prospect at left-back?

    Without a shadow of a doubt. To be fair i think he will get game time. Ronny's all about developing young homegrown talent. He'll be well aware of thomson :50:
