Saw him play at SMS earlier in the season and was most impressed. He scored a goal despite being marked by a guy who appeared about a foot taller than him. Pretty sure he is under 6 foot which is pretty small by todays standards but his workrate and speed more than makes up for it. Pahars is a good analogy.

Have to say, the Trialist family might rival the Wallaces. There have been a good four of their clan in our U18/U23 squads in recent weeks.
He has an identical twin brother, Matthew, at Spurs. Both are defensive midfielders and both, apparently, can also play centre back.
Academy lad Kayne Ramsay came on in 83rd minute for Ross County and scored the equaliser in the 93rd minute against Livingstone, Jake Vokins played the whole game.

I don't follow them that closely but it seems our youth teams are on fire at the moment. Always seem to be winning
Nico Lawrence is the brand new signing and is already playing. I imagine partly brought in due to the slot opened up by Simeu going on loan I wonder if the trialist at 6 is the Spurs youngster ? Although I assume we can’t take players from other premier league clubs on trial
