The 17-year-old played his third match of his Elgin loan spell in the 1-1 draw with Albion Rovers, and spoke afterwards about how he is enjoying life at the Borough Briggs club.

He said he had to shut out the presence of the Dons management team at the match and focus on his game.

Elgin let two points slip away after missing a penalty and several good openings against an Albion side who played half the match with only ten men following Peter Watson's sending off.

Kane Hester scored a first half penalty but saw a second spot kick saved by Rovers keeper Cammy Binnie, who had several fine stops.
