UNDER-18'S FACE DUNDEE AT TANNADICE

In an interview earlier this morning, Under-18's Coach Paul Hegarty was looking forward to this afternoon's encounter with the Dundee U-18's. "Local derbies always have a special flavour", Hegarty commented, "and the team is particularly excited about facing Dundee on the big pitch at Tannadice. We are very encouraged by our recent performances and we feel confident we can keep making amends for our poor outings over the Christmas period." Paul continued: "We are also more than delighted to see Mark Wilson (pitured) making his come-back after his knee operation. He will start on the bench, but we intend to give him a little run-out later in the game."

The U-18's line-up is as follows: Bruce, Allum, Callaghan, McMenemy, Anderson, Waddell, McMillan, O'Donnell, McGowan, Burns, Ogunmade. Subs: Fionda, Wilson. Holmes, Bell, Andrew.
