The club can now go public with its plans to field a second Senior side for season 2011/2012. Redpath Albion Colts were accepted in to the L&EAFA League at their recent AGM. The reasoning behind this move was partly due to the decison not to take the step up from U19 to U21 for senior youth players. The Colts will play in the newly established L&EAFA Central Division, with both the Seniors and Colts using Pilrig Park as their home ground. The Colts will be coached and managed by Robbie Huxtable (last seasons U19 Head coach) and Cristo O'Brien (last seasons U16s coach), with two additional positions of assistant manager and team secretary in the process of being filled. The squad will be a mix of ex-Albion youth and senior players, with room in the squad available for targeted signings not previously associated with the club. Pre-Season plans are in the process of being finalised, but arrangements are already in place for the first pre-season training session, to be staged at Pilrig Park from 1pm - 4pm.
