YOUTH CUP TIES THIS WEEKEND

Last updated : 02 February 2006 By Grandmaster Suck


Scotland's top cup competition for Under 19 players traditionally gives the talented youngsters the opportunity to play on the main club stadium, and with St Johnstone, Celtic and Dundee United having no first team fixture this weekend it means the full focus will be on their efforts in the Youth Cup.

On Saturday, St Johnstone face Celtic at McDiarmid Park, kick-off 1 pm, with the winners at home to St Mirren in the quarter final.
