Scotland ended the international break on a decent enough note in beating Hungary but the U19`s didn`t enjoy similar good fortune.
The young side has been locked in a very tight group trying to qualify for the European Championships but they were knocked out at the final hurdle last night against Norway.
In a topsy turvy game, the boys lost 5-4 against the Scandinavian side, though it did look as though they were going to win right until the final ten minutes of the match.
A shame, then, but on a more selfish note for our club, Glenn Middleton had a good game as he scored a brace.
Let`s take a look, then, at some of the chatter surrounding him after his performance last night.

C’mon the Scots

At least the young bears are getting game time for their country.
Suppose that’ll change once they advance to the senior side and get overlooked.

Would you use him as back up to Murphy next season or sign a Jordan Jones?

In your opinion if he was at another scottish team bar maybe the top 3 would he be in the first team by now?

Yes but wouldn’t be a starter. Not really played men’s football.

Glenn was very well thought of by Norwich so was a surprise when we announced his signing. Only seen him play a few games so far but you can see he’s a good player.

Wouldnt mind seeing @DMebude @Glenn_M22 playing some part in the remaining games of the season. #Rangers

Glenn Middleton seems to be doing well for Scotland U19.

Great wee player

It`s probably too soon for him to play for our senior side, but at least he`s looking sharp among his age group.
