Hibs U18 updates

Or keep it free like it’s been all along

Even better with donation buckets to a few charities connected to Hibs

A 3-0 win up at Aberdeen today keeps the under 18s on course to win the league.

Another two goals for Connor Young and one for Malik.

Brilliant :flag:

[IberianHibernian]

Another great result . There have been a few mentions on this thread of qualifying for European youth competition but never read anything else from Hibs or SFA about this . What is situation for European competitions ? Realise that priority is preparing players for first team .

If we win the U18 league we’re in the Uefa youth league next season. Hamilton were in it a few years back

[IberianHibernian]

If we win the U18 league we’re in the Uefa youth league next season. Hamilton were in it a few years backThanks . What does that mean ? Under 18 ? How many matches ? Maybe a positive for young players we could sign .

[scoopyboy]

Thanks . What does that mean ? Under 18 ? How many matches ? Maybe a positive for young players we could sign .

It goes to under 19 so basically you can play with the same squad as won it the season before.

There are sections but I think Hibs have to play home and away ties initially.

[The dalmeny]

Thanks . What does that mean ? Under 18 ? How many matches ? Maybe a positive for young players we could sign .

are you implying we should use this to sign young players rather than use this yers squad that will hopefully get us there?

Yeah it is. Possibly Boozy as well I think.

Boozy is working with younger age groups than U18.

Did Maloney ever watch the youth games ?O`Connor played in first team and others were on bench so I`m sure he`ll have watched youth team in person and for many hours on video analysis . From interviews , it seemed obvious he was working very long hours and I`m sure that included watching youths . One of the reasons he was appointed in the first place was the experience he had in Belgium not just with first team but also following under age groups and at Celtic I think he`d worked with junior teams ( knew Henderson from then ) .

[J-C]

Boozy is working with younger age groups than U18.


Is it not Jim McDonaugh that's involved.

[cabbageandribs1875]

remaining games BEFORE tonight, i can't find again where the guy mentioned the league placings

Maurice Dougan on Twitter: "In the U18s league - Rangers have 5 games reamining, Killie, Hearts and Hibs at home and Motherwell and Celtic away. Hearts have 4 games, Hibs at home and away to Rangers, Dundee Utd and Hibs. Hibs have 13 games reamining, 7 at home and 6 away." / Twitter (https://twitter.com/CabbageAndRibs/status/1515076664644055047)

He takes under 15s and 16s.

Up to date table, two points behind with six games in hand.

Maximum Rangers can get is 69 so 21 points from last 12 games would clinch it.

[IberianHibernian]

Looks like we have 12 games left while other teams have between 4 and 8 . We won`t finish till the end of May while other clubs will be hoping to finish this month ( Hearts only 4 games left for example ) . Wonder if clubs can just forfeit games or will they just play even younger players ?

Rangers have 6 games remaining, Hibs, Hearts, Killie and Hamilton at home and Motherwell and Celtic away. Hearts only have 4 games left, Hibs, Rangers and Dundee Utd away and Hibs at home in their last game of the season.
Hibs still have 12 games left, it is now looking unlikely that Hibs will be able to fulfill all their fixtures and as soon as they have arithmetically won the league the remaining unscheduled games will be scrapped.
The schedule upcoming fixtures are -
Friday 22nd Hamilton (h) 26th Aberdeen (h), Killie 29th (a), Aberdeen 3/5 (a), Celtic 5th (h), DU 10th (h), Hearts 15th (a). (other unscheduled games away - DU, Gers, Well, home Hearts, Well.

so 7 wins at the most needed. That’s if rangers win all their remaining games. Which is unlikely.

Yes, still up in the air but seeing as how we have only lost one game this season and Gers have lost 7, we are just waiting on them slipping up again.

[Leitherhibs]

Is Keane involved with the 18’s?

I've been to a couple of there games this season, and Steve Kean was in the dugout alongside Gareth Evans at both of the games. Evans was calling the shots, but Kean was in his ear and speaking to a number of the players too.

We were later in starting the league by about a week or so, we had an outbreak of Covid at HTC which closed the centre for a couple of weeks, other teams also had covid and postponed their games against us, (it was also suspected that because we were playing well, thay did not want to play us at that time and used Covid as an excuse), we also had a couple of games called off becuase of the weather (the storms earlier in the year) and one of our games against Motherwell at HTC was postponed because of floodlight issues at HTC.

likewise there was chat in other teams Hibs called off games for Covid to make sure we had our strongest team available

[Pagan Hibernia]

What happened to Iggy? ‘Left by mutual consent’?

There’s more disappearances here than in 1970s argentina

[Alex Trager]

It seems there is a really good robust structure in place for perhaps the first time in a long time to make the jump between the unders and the first team.


Maybe I am wrong but it looks like we have finally created a decent development pathway for players.

I can’t think of any players that have come out our academy and been successful here since East Mains was built. I believe RP came from celtic

The question about how we will manage to play all our remaining games has been talked about a lot, but the consensus is that once/if we reach the position that we are top and unassailable the remaining games may be voided, as the only real thing that is at stake is the title.

Each team is scheduled to play 32 games, Hearts have three games remaining, Rangers and us twice.

Both our games against Heats and Rangers are part of out backlog of still to be scheduled games.

There has been a few that the academy has produced in recent years, four currently in the first team, Porto, Doig, Campbell and Dabrowski. Others that have made the grade but not currently with us are Oli Shaw, Fraser Murray, Jamie Gullan, Ben Sinclair, Ryan Shanley, Jack Brean to name but a few.

I still think Fraser Murray could have made it. I don't see much from the winter window signing that are much better than he was and he actually got himself in the box regularly

I thought that too but he doesn't seem to have set the heather on fire all that much at Dunfermline and Killie. Maybe he's a slow burner and will get there eventually but Hibs cannot really afford to keep players on indefinitely - they need to force their way into the first team in their early 20s or are better off progressing elsewhere really.

I forgot about Doig actually

I thought RP had come from Celtic quite late on but another poster said that’s not the case.

From that then I’d say that Doig and Porteous have made the grade for us. The other two it remains to be seen

Hibs youngsters have been in great form and face Aberdeen on Tuesday (26 April, 2022 - 7pm kick-off) evening.

Supporters are able to attend the home match at HTC free of charge, and we’d urge as many to come down as possible to back the youngsters.

Yes missed 2 penalties, one over the bar and one saved, also hit the post and hit the bar. By far the better team but lacked the cutting edge. Highlight for me was Gareth offering an Aberdeen fan a square go.

The game got a bit heated at times with the ref maybe out his depth, showed plenty cards during the game along with at yellow for Barry Robson (their head coach) and then a red for Scott Anderson (asst coach). He also awarded a pen to Aberdeen but was overruled by his linesman.

Hibs have now planed an extra game, one of the backlog, which is to be played at East Mains on Sunday 8th May, that means 5 games in 11 days.

Five games in eleven days is just ridiculous

Just looking at the goals against, our defence seems to be way better than the rest of the league. (Goals for is decent, especially considering the games in hand, but not miles ahead of rivals).

Can any of the folk that watch them comment on why that is? Better organised? Stand-out players?

That is interesting- the forward players are the ones we’ve been hearing a lot of shouts about getting them in the first team but the defenders on paper have been the ones performing above average.

[The dalmeny]

Heard last night some of the hibs parents were having a go at Utd players outside the changing rooms after the match lSt week. Anyone see anything?

[The Modfather]

Who are the stand outs from the u18s? Young, Laidlaw & O’Connor get most of the attention but is that because they’re forwards and scoring goals?

Who are the players with a chance of making it at Hibs?

The ones that stand out for me (not saying anything against the rest) Murray Johnson in goal, Defenders Mackenzie Weir, Oscar Macintyre and Kanayo Magwa, Mid' Murray Aitken and Robbie Hamilton plus Malik Zaid. I am sure that they will all make it in the game with maybe 3 or 4 of those getting into the first team squad, and then there is the forwards as well.

Exciting times, I know they are fighting for the league but I hope we use these last few league games to blood some of them into the first team. It was the post-split dead rubbers in 2003 that saw the likes of Thomson, Brown, Whitts and Riordan establish themselves in the team.

[Brightside]

Completely forgot Amir Khan’s nephew was in the academy.

Molotnikov and Khan both played at Lochend. Great that 2 of them are still pushing forward. Just a same Hibs took 7 of them at once.

And possibly Jack Brydon who’s on loan at Edinburgh City, really highly rated!
Mo, any idea who Jayden Fairley is getting on too
Was a sought after player when we signed him

Sorry, no update on him, I haven’t heard anything for a wee while now.

[Brooster]

For me, in the last 3 games the number 4 Blaney? has been the stand out and the big centre half Weir has been solid. Magwa hasn't put a foot wrong and has a great range of passing. Middle to front we've had lots of the ball but maybe just need 10% more from them all and a wee break here and there. Laidlaw obviously has talent but he's been getting involved recently and picking up silly bookings. They're a good side though, hopefully get the league sewn up to make up for the dissapointing Cup defeat.

[Greenbeard]

Tuned in to the last 15 mins of the Youth Cup Final last night. That's how bad the options on the box were. Was fiddling on my phone most of the time but not so much that I didn't hear the commentator say The The Hun Youths were heading for a cup and league double. I hadn't checked our own U18s progress for a couple of weeks but I thought they must have had a complete meltdown for him to say that. 5 mins later he says The The Hun Youth are two points clear of Hibs who have FIVE games in hand (my emphasis). Aye cup and league double right enough ya blue nosed ****.

Hopefully, like their first XI in 2016, they’ll only do half of a League and Cup double.

If/when these young lads wrap up the title they deserve to play a game at ER with a trophy presentation at the end, give us at least something to cheer about this season. Open up the West, free to enter or at least kids free with a few quid for adults to cover costs, open up hospitality for those that might want a few beers and make a day of it. Maybe a 1st team squad player meet/great before the game to help get people along……my daughters would come just to get their photo with Scott Allan😂 Give us some feel good factor heading into the summer.

Yes, out for the rest of the season is what I was told.

When I was up at the Dundee Utd game a week past Tuesday he was wearing a moon boot, this Tuesday he had it off and was walking ok.

[scoopyboy]

You must know him pretty well to get that level of information.

Not really, know Garry from years ago through the bowls and football.

Also know his mum and dad but it was Garry's granny and grandad I knew the best (Josh's great grandparents). Auld Pelt played for Scottish Schoolboys many moons ago and in his later years did a lot of bits and pieces around Port Seton bowling club.

[Brooster]

I see Laidlaw has been called up to the Scotland 17s squad for the Euros which is well deserved but we could well be losing him soon. On the other hand are we getting any players back who have been out on loan or is that mainly older players? Who do we play next?

Always good to hear about our players getting called up for Scotland.

Our next two fixtures are Aberdeen away on Tuesday and at home to Celtic on Friday. Rangers at home to Hearts next Friday as well.

No idea about players returning from injury, although Malik obviously back as he scored winner last night.

We have beaten them 2-1 and 4-2 at home and drew 2-2 away.

Our outstanding game against them has not been scheduled as yet, and we are running out of dates to play it, with us playing 3 games a week. There is one date left at the end on the season 17th May which maybe played as a league decider if required but hopefully we will be 4 pts ahead of them and the league won. Rangers play Hearts next week, hopefully Celtic and/or Hearts can do us a favour.

Not all games expected to be concluded this season as there is not enough available days left in the season.
Our last game of the season is currently away against Hearts on the 13th May. However, the game away to Rangers has still not been scheduled but if the league is still undecided we may end up having to play the Rangers game on the 17th May.
Let’s just hope it is done an dusted and Hearts have to applaud us out as champion at the Oriam on the 13th.

[cabbageandribs1875]

rangers can get a maximum 69 points surely they can just finish the league when/IF hibs reach 70 points ?, 15 points needed from a possible 27

That looks to make sense, Rangers play that other lot on Friday at the Rangers training ground, their next scheduled game is the next Friday against Motherwell away, they still have two games to arrange (if they go ahead), Hamilton and ourselves.

We play Aberdeen tonight (away), Celtic at home on Friday, Motherwell on Sunday, Dundee Utd on Tuesday, all at home, the only other game currently scheduled is Hearts on the 13th at the Oriam.

So we need to keep winning and hope Hearts at least draw or beat Rangers and there maybe no need to play outstanding games, if we win our games it is academic, however there are still a lot of ifs and buts.

The players break up for the season on the 17/18th so it all has to be concluded by then.

That would be great for us but it's what is best for the team that is the priority. Playing at ER might add pressure or just upset the routine of playing at East Mains. So get the league won first I say, then if possible play at ER. Mind, given how short a window they have to do essential work on the pitch, whatever is planned will probably already be due to start as soon as the St Johnstone game is over. on Sunday 15th.

The results and league are not officially published on-line, I have been keeping a spreadsheet of my own but it can be a bit tricky to keep up will all the results over the season. A few of the 9 teams involved do U18s stuff on their websites, Aberdeen and Dundee Utd are the best but others don’t even have any acknowledgment that these games and teams exist, Celtic being a prime example.
I do programs for all the Hibs Under 18s games and it can be a real pain just trying to find out the eligible players for each club. One of the ways of keeping updated with results etc is via fans of these teams on Twitter.

We only have four games scheduled left to play as the players beak-up on the 17/18 May, hopefully we get the results to take care of the league.

Just a correction on fixtures, the Dundee United game on the 10th will be in Dundee, not heard of the kick-off time as yet but the First team are also playing Dundee that evening so it might be an afternoon kick-off.

No because its just a punters own twitter page he keeps updated once the games have been played as he goes to a lot of the Rangers academy and 'B' games.

Assume you mean 'not' publicised. I couldn't find anything on the SFA sited with info on this at all. Assume because its a development league and fixtures can change on discussion between teams.

I think you have to remember how cancellations have effected the league. some of these young men have been playing/training since last July & they need a break. don't suspect this will be a problem next season

But poor from the SFA they can't update / change the schedule online - would probably try watch more games if this information was available.

Used to watch quite a few games when Hibs played at Oriam and was good to see the up and coming players and some 1st team players.

I've a mate who's laddie is going through the (not hibs) system at the moment so been to a few games. I'm not sure how much desire there is from the clubs to have lots of folk attending, maybe that's just been down to covid too

[Oscar T Grouch]

No because its just a punters own twitter page he keeps updated once the games have been played as he goes to a lot of the Rangers academy and 'B' games.

Assume you mean 'not' publicised. I couldn't find anything on the SFA sited with info on this at all. Assume because its a development league and fixtures can change on discussion between teams.

I think you have to remember how cancellations have effected the league. some of these young men have been playing/training since last July & they need a break. don't suspect this will be a problem next season

Oh the SFA have a whole section on the CAS Elite teams, it was last updated pre-COVID, nothing since then. It really should be down to them to update this as this is their "Elite" academy league, it is their baby and at the moment it looks like they have abandoned it. This is their fixture/results section for the Elite CAS league here, there isn't even an option for the league table and the last result posted was from March 2020

https://www.scottishfa.co.uk/performance/club-academy-scotland/results/?type=fixtures

As you say we will need to rely on punters themselves to provide info or Aberdeen, the huns and Dundee Utd all have sections on their CAS Elite teams, Hibs don't!

[Ringothedog]

Hibs seem to give previews of and reports from the under 18 games on the official site. I would say that the coverage on the official site for the first team, under 18’s and the Women’s team is pretty decent.

[Tarrahib]

yep, then HTC again on Sunday v Motherwell
What time is the kick off on Friday night please? We don’t want to arrive at 7.30 and find the game finished.

Thanks, v poor that proper authorities don't update regularly.

Great result again for the young lads and another step closer for them.

[big-mo]

The SFA have agreed to extend the Under18s season, that means that we should be able to play all outstanding games. It also means that we will go back to only two games a week and Sunday's game v Motherwell has now been postponed until later in the month.
In an unusal move, Tuesday's game ungainst Dundee Utd will be played at 19:30 withe the first team kicking off 15 minutes later just along the street.

Cheers for the updates.

Might not please the opposition clubs whose U18s have probably already got their flights to Ibiza booked for the day after the previously scheduled end date.

An Ethan Laidlaw double and goals from Robbie Hamilton and Connor Young gave Hibs Under-18s a comfortable 4-0 victory over Celtic.

[superfurryhibby]

Logistics permitting, it would be barri to give these laddies a game at ER, they would get a big turnout.
C’mon the young team.

I said that a few weeks ago. Is the park getting ripped up after the game against St Johnstone?

Not sure tbh. They deserve recognition. A shining light amidst the gloom of this season.

There’s a Hibs play on the pitch event on Tuesday 17th so if it is being dug up feasibly the earliest that would happen would be the Wed. So there would be a couple of days at least after the Saints game to make it happen if they wanted to.

Celtic bottom of the league, surprised at that, maybe their better under 18s play in the lowland league side perhaps🤔

good shout i have wondered a few times why they have been so far down the league, i've no idea how the old firm sides compare in the lowland league but there's almost the length of a league in the difference between their U18's sides :hmmm:

Celtic have a fair number of 17/18 year olds playing in their reserve team.

Celtic had about 5 Lowland league players playing on Friday night now that the Lowland League is finished and to be brutally honest they were dreadful. On that showing they are lucky to be bottom of the league. Hibs are streets ahead of them.

Some of the team doing their exams just now and I’d imagine other teams will have players in the same situation.

I don't think there was any B team players on Friday, they did have quite a few younger players including mostly 05 and 06s (16 and 17 year olds) there oldest players were only 17 in January.

The game on Friday the 13th is a 19:30 k/o at the Oriam. (we still have another game to play against team at HTC, not yet arranged but they only have these two games left, so I think we should keep them waiting until the end of the month).
The game a week on Tuesday 17th is at HTC against Motherwell with a 19:30 k/o.
The games on the 20th, 24th and 27th are still to be arranged.

Meanwhile Rangers will play Hamilton on the 10th at home, they then play Motherwell on the 13th. Their only remaining game is still to be arranged and is against us at Rangers Training Ground. (Should we win on Tuesday and Friday and they do not take all 6 points in their games, we may not have to play them).

Just a reminder of our outstanding games still to be arranged are - Home to Dundee Utd & Hearts and Away to Rangers & Motherwell.

We need just 9 points from our remaining 7 games, but given our goal difference of plus 14 on Rangers, 8 points would most likely be enough.

I spoke to an agent at half time, he has Hibs and Celtic players on his books. It was him who told me about the B team players. Not that agents always tell the truth of course.

Can’t see these outstanding games getting played. To be honest the clubs/league have made a real arse of this. It’ll be interesting to see what the score in the Motherwell game is.

They may have been 'B' team players but they would be young ones as you will see from the team sheet. Someone at the game was talking to one of the Celtic player's mothers and she said that she did not recoginse many of his teammates.

How are we there so many games left outstanding for us and others?
