Squirrelhumper Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Shame is basically getting played behind closed doors as the fans can't behave. I'd have probably took a walk along had it not been the case if it was a decent night. THE 2017 Scottish FA Youth Cup Final between Rangers and Celtic will be streamed live on YouTube, Facebook and Twitter next week. The final of Scotland’s premier youth tournament is set to take place at Hampden Park on Wednesday, 26 April and will be available to watch FREE on the Scottish Cup YouTube channel, the Scottish Cup Facebook page and the Scottish FA Twitter account. Radio Clyde’s Gordon Duncan will commentate on the match alongside Scottish Sun journalist Kenny Millar. Following discussions between the Scottish FA, Celtic, Rangers and Police Scotland, it has been jointly agreed that tickets for the match will not go on general sale. Please note this means that tickets will not be available to buy at the stadium on match day. Both clubs will distribute an allocation of tickets through their community and academy programmes, after the success of a similar approach when Celtic and Rangers met in the 2015 showpiece final.

sbcmfc Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I went to the old firm final at Hampden a few years ago, Celtic won it in ET I think. Was pretty mental for a kids game, but no bother as such, plenty of pyro and sectarianism, but nobody got hurt... Shame for the players that they miss out on the chance to play in front of 10,000+ fans, as a lot of them won't make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASTA Mick Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Almost as 1-sided as Sunday. 2-0 at HT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both the Green Brigade and union bears had a march (corteo) to the game. I think the score was 2-1. Celtic first team played a friendly that night and there was more people in the Celtic end at Hampden than there was at Celtic park, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reevesy Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 4 Celtic victories over "Rangers" in the past week at all different levels. Hopefully a few of the younger boys will make the step up to the senior team. Jack Aitchinson came on and scored against Motherwell on the final day of last season, be nice if one or two can get involved this year against Hearts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't "happen" nowhere near "enough" these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theweestevie Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Although a disapointing result for Rangers it is encouraging to see them get to the final. I think the average age of the team this season is around 17.5 so still a very young team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warburton made the decision to send pretty much the majority of our U20 side out on loan to lower league teams so a lot of the boys in our current U20 side have stepped up from lower age groups.

It is an under 20's team where you are allowed to play a few overage players so an average age of 17 is quite young compared to what it could be.

Had a quick glance through the teams, not that many seem to have made it at their respective teams. One of the Twardzik brothers looked outstanding, I'd thought it was Filip, but it was the central midfielder which appears to have been Patrik. Bit of a luxury player, but looked a real talent, doesn't seem to be playing at all now, neither is their brother, the midget goalie. Kane Hemmings was good too, but had put it down to his physique compared to his peers rather than ability.

You can't play overage players in the cup, but your point still stands. Probably a bit of a pish take as Warbuton was forever insisting Rangers were a young team when he was here, when they clearly weren't.

Tbf for the season in the championship I think the avreage of our starting 11 was 22 or 23, which included Kenny Miller. That went out the window this season with Hill, Barton, Kranjcar, Senderos etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
