I see the under 20s got beat again today, there must be serious doubts now about Durrants role as head coach. I appreciate that its not all about winning at that level but surely it can't help the young players confidence and development to keep losing every week. Ian Durrant is probably the best player Rangers have ever produced from within and I realise he is a club legend but perhaps working alongside Mccoist and picking up coaching tips from him isn't the best pedigree to have, he had a decent reputation at Kilmarnocks academy but seems to have gone backwards since teaming up with Ally. Time for a new under 20s coach anyone?

Tough call to throw the wee man out the club personally a wouldn't like anyone else to show the young team a first touch and how to trap the ball, but maybe your right about ally link but you said it yourself decent reputation from Kilmarnock Warburton will bag him if not eventually up to scratch maybe the hat likes what he sees on the training ground?

How many players are out on loan
Aird, Kelly, Walsh, Murdoch, Gasporotto is that why the results have been poor?

We play a lot of 16 year old in our under 20's, a lot of other teams play senior players looking for fitness.

I have to Dissagree with you. Please look at the bigger picture.
a loss in the U20's is nothing. Please concider players that could be playing in the u20's that arn't because they've progressed to the 1st team, or are out on loan.

Liam Kelly, Luca Gasperoto, Ryan Sinnamon, Robbie Crawford, Andy Murdoch, Tom Walsh, Ryan Hardie, Frazer Aird, Jordan Thompson.

the academy is doing fine just now, regardless of u20's results.

I posted that we have so many players out on loan which could be the reason for the run of poor results in the u20s.
The players on loan need to play on a regular basis.
Look at Barrie Mackay now. In Warbs we trust.

So how many have progressed to the first team? That'll be one, Barry Mckay and only after a few loan spells. And the rest are out on loan because they are not good enough. One loss in the U20s may be nothing but their form is atrocious. Do you think Durrant is saying "that's fine boys another humping, but you're developing well"?
