Even if youre not Scottish I hope you'll get behind me supporting Neil who signed for St. Johnstone 2yrs ago and has been on the 1st team bench since and he's only just 18.
He flew out to Estonia today as Scotlands under 19 no.1 keeper.
I am mega proud and peeps who have known me for years will recall I said even all those years back -remember Neil Duffy you heard it here first.
Well what can I say and he's only just started-and thanks to all who endulged me all those years ago -I was right as usual lol!!!!
Dreams do come true :) x

Yes, can I also offer my congratulations. You must be very proud. Good luck to Neil

[Dris]

Thanks les -im just off to see how they did in their first game (wee bit tentatively lol)

[lesblue]

Seven-nil win against the giants of Liechtenstein (only joking). Can't be bad. And another game today against Estonia. This one could be tougher!! Good luck.

[lesblue]

2-1 win against Estonia. Going well for your boy!!

[Jemisa]

He's my nephew Jem -my brothers son.Yeah being Scottish is a cross to bear at times lol !
I know les -great results -Croatia next (I think) just off the check the website.My brother hasnt heard from him but he's home soon.
I laughed at the Liechtensein score as the main squad struggle with the minnows -thats when we usually groan 'o noooo' when theyere drawn in our group lol!!

Theres also a pic of Neil with his St. Johnstone team mate.

Neil hasnt had a start -theyve stuck to the team they started with and quite right as so far so good. We're hoping he might get a shout today as they lead the table -they are currently playing Norway. Fingers crossed -been a great experience anyway but a cap would be the icing on the cake:)
