Scott Pittman


Mid Calder Saint

Recommended Posts

As we have a much restricted budget apparently I would like to see us target the junior ranks.Scott aged 22 is a box to box midfielder with top junior side Bo'ness.He has been described by his manager as the best player in the juniors and is currently being monitored by a few Senior teams.Would be worth a look at when you consider the boy McKinnon who plays for Hamilton was signed from Clydebank Juniors last season.

Always like to see us take a chance , and it would probably make sense for us to have a couple of part time players so we could get a couple of decent players from the lower leagues and also maybe offer players coming from the juniors p/t contracts to start off with.

Not suggesting we go part time , but if budgets are tight and our squad getting smaller , it make sense to have a group of part time players.

you want an experienced manager even though Teale is doing ok and now you want an inexperienced player at our level. I'm sure it's down to having one too many :)

Problem is he's another midfield player

A department we don't suffer from

If he was a forward rattling in goals or a promising centre half fair enough

Get them in to have a look

Nup.

It's more credible that YOU have the £1.5m....

I've got £1.5m AND I'm a fifty year old ex superstar!!!!!

ETA In saying that there are good players in the Juniors but not all players in the Juniors are good.

These boys were fit and strong and quick (again compared to a fifty year old). but I cant say they had anything more than that. In the small park savvy counted more muscle.

In fairness, they also beat Elgin 5-4...

A few junior players who could easily play at a higher level. Graham Boyd at Kilbirnie Ladeside is lethal. Only have to look at the likes of Doolan and Erskine to see that there's a few gems in lower leagues if you can seek them out.

Oh I don't doubt that you find diamonds in even the roughest rough.

Darren McGregor was one for us, and the ones you mention have been relatively successful without pulling up any trees. They did come to the top flight via the lower leagues though.

Has there been any junior players who've went from Junior to the top flight and been a success this century? Can't think of any off hand myself.

Then he took a step backwards.

Why just this century? I am sure there will have been some and there's been plenty in the past 100 yrs.
