Jamie Doris (I wanna be a Berwick Ranger)

Jamie Doris(Hibernian U19)

He seems to have some difficulties in scotland. Only one full appearance, one substitute appearance and two sub but not used...

As of 27/11/09

Yes but he is still very young, only 17 years old:

Not many 17yos playing the the SPL - give him a year or two to develop in the SPL U21 league

If NZ qualifies to 2011 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Colombia he would have a great chance to be noticed by a bigger club in the championship or even a reserve EPL squad

He played the first preseason game with hibernians:

So is there another age grade SPL competition? I just can't see him making the first team, he was helped by having a Scottish passport, youth teams are only allowed the one import I believe, so when he becomes too old he may have to come home.

Why would he need to come home if he has a Scottish passport?  He wouldn't be an import.

This is if he can't make the transition from the youth academy to the first team when he becomes too old to play for the youth side.

His family lives here. He comes back during his holidays. Obviously I wouldn't know what is plans are, but as someone alluded to above that he's not starting regularly means there is better youth players than Jamie? Not all of them will make the step up. It would be great if he could.


But as I've just read a post from above that says he's in an U21 league. Which means he has plenty of time left in Scotland.Luis Garcia2010-07-29 12:20:01

As well as the SPL, there is the Reserve SPL(for any player aged over 16) and the U19 League

The SPL changed the U21 league to a general Reserves league in 2004/5

nb. The club is called "Hibernian" and there no such thing as a "Scottish" passport

Whinge over!

Played full 90 in a 3-2 away win.At the end doris stayed in scotland as he has dual citizenship. But playing for the reserve team of a 3rd division scottish team seems a pretty low level. Title of this thread should be changed to Berwick Rangers.

Jamie Doris from Nelson seems to have been playing all season for Berwick Rangers reserves in Scottish Div. 3

Berwick came close to promotion to Div. 2 along with Glasgow Rangers by finishing fourth and making the play-offs - but narrowly lost the a way leg against East Fife from the Second Division on the weekend 2-1 after drawing at home in the first leg.

Berwick were only narrowly beaten 1-0 away by Glasgow Rangers ten days ago in a league game and drew at home with them back in August.

Reports on some of his reserve games (near the top of their league):

Jamie is the ginger on the left:

While having a think about Cameron Howieson going to St. Mirren - I suddenly thunk to myself WTF ever happened to the ginger at Berwick?

looks like he is lost to football doing a MEng in Edinburgh........

It seems he's still playing in Berwick Reserve

3 years in the Berwick Reserves? I think we are talking a unannounced retirement to University and a nice Scottish lassie.....

And just when a couple of spots had opened up in the U23s too.
