@Marshmallo Why dislike the fact that an Under 19 team (And with 4-5 missing) can rip apart an established Lowland League side?

But full of older men with experience of playing at the level.

Teams Ages Jay Hogarth (18) Leon King (17) Robbie Fraser (18) Lewis MacKinnon (18) Cole McKinnon (18) Murray Miller (19) Alex Lowry (18) Charlie McCann (19) Kane Ritchie-Hosler (18) Christopher McKee (19) Charlie Lindsay (17) Subs Jacob Pazikas (16) Kelsey Ewen (16) Jack Harkness (17) MacKenzie Strachan (17) Ross McCausland (18) Arron Lyall (17) Robbie Ure (17) An Under 19 team who are learning on the job, Getting physically better and gaining confidence by getting big wins.

Wonderful stuff. Kids thrashing these teams is a good thing

Enjoyed the outrage that the old firms development squads are having with non-league fans ITS NOT ABOUT YOU AND IT WILL NEVER WILL

Wonderful start by both teams so far and a lot of kids are getting competitive football to improve and harden their games. Brilliant stuff

Fantastic round, full of drama, action and some shocks More please more!!!!

Hope Rangers kids give Dumbarton a good hiding. Dumbarton fans hate this competition so i'm sure they will not be too bothered with this outcome

I actually cheered when this happened. Great to see the B Teams and Youngsters winning in this competition.

Why are you all worried. They have all gone out. Lets just chill people

Ah! is that all you got. Not only you are a nasty bigot but a twonk too

You seem rather bitter Gordon, Having an Italian player has your profile picture "Cos they beat the english" sums you up I want Scotland to improve You just want England to lose Pathetic

if you see something you will know Relax

Neil Doncaster has good vision and this competition has worked and will continue to work Stick with it guys and relax

Its to give players a good chance of competitive football whilst remaining in their club environment. This will make them more experienced and they could progress to the 1st team and scotland much quicker Futhermore the players who dont make (of which there will be loads) will be more experienced as 20/21 year olds with a lot more lowland league games under their belt and it will be easier for clubs to take them on as they are experienced

Stirling Albion will never amount to much, So stop being pious

Great start, I want to see the B Teams do well and develop talent for their 1st teams and possibly Scotland

Get a Midland league side involved as well (Best team over 5 seasons?) Then we can have a truer competition with all leagues getting involved and we can progress forward in the future

Challenge Cup is great, It provides a lot of range of tests for teams

Great idea

Interesting competition. These regional cups should be very short pre-season events.

Would be funny as f**k if relegation was in place for the Highland League and Brechin go into the Midland League :D

Yeah good idea. Only be in it for yourself. They are giving teams money

I'm excited that the Under 21's will remain in the competition. This is the way forward for the improvement, Development and struture of Scottish Football moving forward

Youth Development will massively improve if the bigger clubs have colt teams in the lower leagues. (17-21 year olds will develop quicker) More focus also is needed for a robust Youth League like they do in England, Coaching needs to be improved as well as the SFA need to invest lots into this. Improvement is there but needs to gain more momentum.
