for all their help during the course. Much appreciated ⚽️⚽️👍
Delighted to say I’m going on board with St Johnstone FC to do some work with their 2009 age group. A really exciting opportunity and really looking forward to it getting started. will still be coaching locally aswell. Roll on 2018 should be a cracker 👍👍👍
Last coaching session of the year tonight. Been a great year football/coaching wise and loved every minute of it. Time for a wee break and a chance to reflect on what was good and what needs adjusted slightly. Bring on 2019 ⚽️⚽️⚽️
Good training session this morning with the boys before heading up to watch the first team play. Attitudes were excellent throughout and work rate top notch. Well done boys and keep up the hard work ⚽️⚽️👍👍
After a few weeks of no games due to the snow will be great to see the boys in action tonight. Looking forward to it is a bit of a understatement ⚽️⚽️⚽️👍
Well done to our boys this morning. Very wet conditions against a big strong organised team. Great attitudes from start to finish. Looking for a 08/09 team to play next Saturday in the central belt area. Get in touch with me if interested. Thanks ⚽️⚽️👍👍
Massive thanks to
@2009scotland
and notredame for coming up to play in Perth this morning. Some great games and great talent on show. Will be great to get both teams along again at some point in the near future 👍
Sad to be leaving a great bunch of guys behind...... now ready for my next step working with planet soccer full time..... thanks for the memories guys ⚽️⚽️
Does anyone else think Fellaini in the middle of the park is underrated? Doing a great job in there tonight and allows the flair players to play with a bit more freedom ( in my opinion )
Busy weekend ahead. Working just now, paisley later on with our u11s and a festival tomorrow with our u10s. Might find time to put the feet up later 😂😂⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️
@StuartOgilvie3
@StJohnstone

St Johnstone fc pre academy looking for an away fixture in the central belt area for this coming Friday vs 09 boys club. Please get in touch if available to host.
Thanks

If any 2009 or 2008 boys club teams fancy a couple of games in Perth on July 14th then get in touch with me and I will give the details, etc. Looking for 2 more teams, Thanks ⚽️⚽️⚽️
Any 2008/2009 age group teams looking for a fixture this Saturday then please get in touch with me. Happy to travel anywhere in the central belt area. Hopefully we all beat the snow this weekend and get some footy played ⚽️⚽️👍👍
If any 2009 teams in West Lothian, Edinburgh or Glasgow area are able to host mid week matches then will be happy to bring a team through to play. Get in touch with me if interested. Thanks ⚽️⚽️👍👍
@HeartsRant
Ball into Lafferty is fine in principle but has to come from a wider area.We have one senior pro winger who is a loanee.That needs rectified
Big thanks to
@tm_mckinstray
for hosting our SJFC 2009 boys. Weather did it’s best to ruin the game but both sets of players stuck at it and played some good football in the correct spirit. Thanks again ⚽️⚽️⚽️👍
@MarkMcCall4
Long passes are fine. Long kicks at “ kick ins “ defo not By changing it to throw ins boys/teams don’t have the luxury of playing it long every time when the ball goes out. Yes the throw ins might not technically be great but better than a long punt every time the ball goes out.
Steven MacLean pulled up from the compliance officer fair enough, wonder if Sinclair will for the dive that went unpunished in the second half.............
Big thanks to
@gweir20
and
@2009Ymca
for having our boys along tonight. Cold conditions but some lovely football/goals from both sides. Looking forward to getting you guys up to Perth / visiting you guys again ⚽️⚽️👍👍 thanks again
@HeartsRant
Don’t understand the set up for the first goal. With the height in the team there’s no need to try and be clever like that. A lot of height in the side so just ask players to go be brave and stick their head on it to clear, especially so early in the game
St Johnstone pre academy 2011 squad looking to play some 5 aside matches over the next few weeks on a Wednesday night at Grangemouth area. Please give me a message if your team fancied it. Happy for 2010 sides to come play.
Thanks
Kirk
Thanks to Lochend 2009s for having our boys/me along this morning. Cracking facility and a great wee side in the making. Really enjoyable and a hard thought match. Best of luck when your season kicks off ⚽️⚽️⚽️👍👍
Sadly due to the snow no games this weekend for the saints 2009s. Roll on next weekend and hopefully no snow!! Good luck to the first team in their Scottish cup tie tomorrow 👍
Any 2009 age group games going on in the Edinburgh area over the weekend?
@ChrisCrooky
Surely every game of football is competitive ? Nothing wrong with rewarding excellence tho in my opinion. We do it at every other aspect of life and in school so why not at sport?
To all those doubters who think Craig Levein isn’t the man to take us forward then I think today shows he is. Great to have a manger who will give our youth players a chance and they didn’t let him down today. Great performance and that is the bench mark for going forward.
Any 2006 teams looking for some matches over the next few months then give me a dm as have a few friends who run teams at that age group asking for games. Thanks ⚽️⚽️👍
Good session today with the 2009s, thankfully stayed dry this week. Next Saturday looking for some 2009 age group teams to come along and play some games. Any teams interested in coming along then please get in touch with a private message to me.
Thanks
Tynecastle boys club 2006 age group looking for matches. Happy to travel/play mid week. Please get in touch if interested and I can help with contact details.
Thanks
Kirk
Looking for a 2009 age group team to come to Perth on Saturday for a few games. Anyone interested then please get in touch with me and can sort out the details. Thanks ⚽️⚽️⚽️
Any 2010 boys clubs looking for some games on a Wednesday night at Grangemouth then please get in touch with me and can sort out some games. Thanks ⚽️⚽️👍👍

@JamTarts
@spfl
Why not just say Celtic must play rangers in the semi and hearts play aberdeen on the Saturday? Problem solved and that would suits Hearts and Aberdeen much better than this farcical outcome. Alot of hearts and dons fans won’t make those kick off times.
Hearts better in the second half and hearts had the better opportunities with Walker early on and lafferty in the second half. Two decent penalty shouts that will go under the radar as everyone will pick up on the hibs goal. Yes it was in but a tough decision to make in real time
A couple of great games up in Perth today for our 09s. Far from ideal conditions but the boys stuck at it well and scored some lovely goals. Role on next Saturday 👍👍
@BBCSportsound
He says 6 points behind second is nothing. Presume the same applies to hearts being 6 points behind hibs then. Hearts are yet to properly fire and are only 6 points behind a supposedly great hibs team. Be interesting if hearts can go on a good run
@ClubSalvesen
Thing is the pitches aren’t even that great. Grass to long, lines hard to see, etc. Why not charge something like £1 per kid and try to encourage more to play.
