2016 Coach Kev
🗣️”Let’s talk about last night!!!!
Down here in the Borders our leagues are all inclusive, mixed ability and week after week we play similar teams and always enjoy our football. To go to a city, playing against teams who are hand picked on ability and ranked accordingly, then it is always going to be interesting to see how we fare in the pecking order….
We had a few “character building” match’s to kick the evening off, but we all laugh about that now!!!🫠🫣
Once the floodlights lit up Easter Road for the second half of the evening the 2016s from a wee toon in the Borders shone brighter. Playing against advanced teams from Glasgow and Edinburgh the following games produced some of the greatest football we have ever played, and we skelped some big names in Scottish football making it a night to remember!! To do this on the big stage is something that the boys will remember for the rest of their days.
All the boys served the club and the town to the highest degree last night, I’m very proud of you all.
Hope you’ve enjoyed your day off today and can’t wait to see you all in the morning.
Just the small matter of Gala at Home Park to deal with in a 11am kick off!!!”😊
Special thank you to Hibernian Community Foundation for making it a very well run tournament and making it a night to remember for the children in the town and surrounding area.
