"It's been a good week for us."We finished the game with seven academy kids. That will give them a little flavour of the physicality and intensity."When you're an under-18 at St Mirren, you're never too far away from the first team and some have shown they need a little bit more. They need to go on loan, get stronger, maybe their decision-making needs to be quicker."St Mirren have a Tuesday friendly with Airdrie scheduled and open their League Cup campaign away to Arbroath next Saturday.
