Great news, both are pushing the first team, the older one injured at the moment, but he looked more than comfortable, the younger one looked excellent.
For such a young age, the mentality to push on and improve has been impressive.
Was expecting them to go on loan, but I`m not sure no, seems ready to kick on..

I think they just have extra sessions outside normal school hours. It`s quite the commitment. My kids can wander along to school at 8/8:30 and be back by 4:30 at the latest. It must have taken Andrew some time getting to/from Kinross to Broughton each day. It`s around 40 minutes from Ferrytoll so probably an hour from Kinross.
