It was a Wrexham reserve side we played, eleven changes from their previous game against Bromely and none started in their next game against Yeovil. There were five teenagers in Wrexham's starting lineup that played at Ibrox. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that I was under impression going to that game our "colts" were playing a recognised Wrexham first team in that Irn Bru cup. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CammyF 8,116 Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Interesting to hear SG talk about "egos" in the youth ranks. Was this directed at Kia Kennedy in particular or a shot across the bows of the youth players in general? May also be behind the coaching reshuffle? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably both which is correct path to take.We have many youths in our Auchenhowie set up who are likely to be more than proud to be there without shouting to the world "look at me I'm a Rangers player". 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told something two weeks ago about an incident - nothing major - that showed the ego and lack of gratitude of some of our youths. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 15,294 Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Kennedy is better off elsewhere. No loss to Rangers. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMAA 3,658 Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Disappointed at this. Certainly one of our most promising youths. And although I don’t think he could contribute much this season, we don’t have many players like him in the senior squad. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,747 Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 You obviously need some ego to make your way as a footballer, after all, youngster will have to replace "veterans" at some point. (I know Craig wil jump in soon but) Kyle Hutton was one of those in days gone by, whose ego got the better of him, laughing and slagging off Bears questioning him and his attitude. Kennedy (as the story goes over on FF) also has some pedigree as a Yahoo, but who knows what happened. QUite a few bits and pieces to be found over there regarding this particular affair. As SG has said, people have to commit to the club - and I don't think he was primarily referring to contract extensions - and all that it stands for and behave accordingly. If their character is off, so they will be sooner or later. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GERFORLIFE 0 Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 With regards to Kai Kennedy being told to find a new club because he refused to sign a new contract. We don't know exactly what the contract offer was. He perhaps was offered a contract that was not acceptable to him. In which case he was entitled to refuse it. He might be biting of his nose to spite his face. Only he knows that. It would be a shame if we lost a promising player to some other team. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because that’s what I’ve heard he is looking for. completely untested, unproven but looking for 10k a week ? Not for me I’m afraid. The ego statement wasn’t about them being overly confident or arrogant... one of the youths showed complete disrespect for a senior player who was helping them out.... said youth didn’t even realise that he was being disrespectful.... but common sense and a modicum of manners should have told him otherwise. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
