Eric Arthur Blair Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 4-2 great tenacity by Orsi to win the ball and cross for O'Keefe to stroke it home Quote
Eric Arthur Blair Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 A tremendously entertaining half of football, all four forwards have scored with Orsi and McAllister being standouts, Magennis and Whyte have been industrious in midfield and McKenzie and Gordon solid at the back. Lots of movement off the ball, short crisp passing and other than the mad minute on the half hour mark, when instead of it being 4-0 it was 3-2, thoroughly enjoyable. Quote
Mid Calder Saint Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 Orsi signed from Aberdeen in July. Quote
FTOF Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 Andrew Mcdonald on for McAllister at HT. Quote
paul torfason Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 great boys doing well..how is McKenzie and Gordon playing bud?? Quote
Eric Arthur Blair Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 Orsi off, Flanagan on. I would start Orsi vs Albion on Saturday, he was excellent Quote
FTOF Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 great boys doing well..how is McKenzie and Gordon playing bud?? Both pretty solid,but not up against much TBH. Flanagan on for Orsi. Quote
Eric Arthur Blair Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 Almost 5, great mazy dribble and shot from Nathan Flanagan Quote
Eric Arthur Blair Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 Really encouraging to see how many tricky wingers are coming through, O ' Keefe has been good and Flanagan's had 2 or 3 mazy runs since came on. McKenzie just hit the bar with a header Quote
Eric Arthur Blair Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 McKenzie off, Lee Fawkes on Quote
Eric Arthur Blair Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 5-2 tremendous work in midfield by Magennis to release McLear, he rounded the keeper and scored from a tight angle Quote
santaponsasaint Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 What a fantastic performance. The 2 Kyles McGennis and MacAlistair were unplayable in the 1st half. New boy signed from Aberdeen Kalvin Orsi was superb. 2 goals from Lewis McLear and goals from Conor O,Keefe MacAlistair and Orsi rounded one the most enjoyable nights at St. Mirren Park for a long time. Well done boys superb nights entertainment Quote
div Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 Yeah my first time watching the under-20s and it's the most I've enjoyed a game in ages. McAllister ran riot in the half that he played, Orsi looked a real handful and the likes of Flanagan & O'Keefe were very lively and impressive. Thought MacKenzie had a great game as well. Powerful in the air but comfortable enough with the ball at his feet. Gordon didn't do much wrong either. Magennis & Whyte looked solid throughout and wee McLear took his second goal in particular very well. All in all a great night of entertaining football. Mon the baby buds! Quote
Sonny Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 The U-20's seem to be able to do everything that the first team can't. Reckon we should first team and U20 squads and managers around. Might make for an entertaining afternoon of football instead of hoof ball. Quote
paul torfason Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 maybe time to start playing some of these boys,as the first team rank rotten,if we don't win then what's new,not winning anyway..get them in team rae Quote

Well done boys superb nights entertainment Have to echo this. I'd forgotten what it was like to enjoy attending a game of football. The only long balls were generally kick outs from Langfield or crosses from between the 18 yard box and the bye line. The latter of which created three goals and two efforts (from McKenzie) off the woodwork. Great to see players running at the opposition and getting past them. Passing and running into space for the return. So far removed from the utter shite we've suffered watching the 1st XI. Edited August 30, 2016 by FTOF Quote

St.Ricky Posted August 30, 2016 Report Posted August 30, 2016 I attended the game and thoroughly enjoyed it. Great effort from both teams. Great display by the young saints. Bodes well for the future. As Arnie once said "I will be back.!" Quote

It does beg the question why some of these lads aren't involved with the first team. Quote
