    The New Raith Rovers Thread

    Don't agree that players who haven't established themselves in the first team have somehow 'missed the boat'. Why do we have under 19 and under 20 leagues in the SPFL? It is similar down south and on the continent. The reality is that most players do not establish themselves until they are older. Those that do are the exceptions not the norm.

    I hear this quite a lot about our young players and I simply just don't get it.

    If you are a footballer and you are not good enough for mid-table SPFL Championship team at 18 then you should just go and pursue an other career. 18 is not a youngster anymore in footballing terms. Players regularly play in the EPL at this age.

    If by 18 they can't get in our team are they worth keeping?

    We have seen dozens of fringe youth players all get a few minutes here and their and they end up in Junior football or worse at East Fife.
