Hibernian’s Development Squad will take on Newcastle United’s Under-23s at the Hibernian Training Centre this afternoon.
Following the club’s decision to pull out of the SPFL Reserve League, they will instead organise a hand-picked games programme designed to boost the development of the young players.
Neil Redfearn’s second string will provide a stiff test for the contest which has a 2pm kick-off.
Admission is free but supporters will have the opportunity to make a donation to the Academy.
John graduated from Telford College in 2010 with an HNC in Practical Journalism and since then he worked for the North Edinburgh News, The Southern Reporter, the Irish News Review and The Edinburgh Reporter. In addition he has been published in the Edinburgh Evening News and the Hibernian FC Programme.
