Highland League stars to get Forest chance

The talented teenagers currently play for Keith in the Scottish Highland League, and club chairman Sandy Stables told the Daily Record: "People often question what purpose the Highland League serves in this day and age but the fact that we have developed two young players who are now interesting Nottingham Forest provides the perfect answer.

"Our clubs perform a very important role in the communities.

"We give people in the north a chance to watch senior football and we give youngsters the opportunity to take part in it.

"Between them, these two local lads scored 80 goals for this club at various levels last season and nothing would delight me more than to see them move on to England."
