Re: Matchday thread v Spurs (U-23)
considering his identity must be known to the commentators, what are the reasons why they only refer to him as "the triallist"? Presume the same reasons why they appear that way in pre-season squad lists

They said that clubs don't want to alert other clubs to the players availability or the clubs' interest in them. Agents however have the reverse position.

Re: Matchday thread v Spurs (U-23)
I thought it was an excellent and enjoyable performance. Have got used to O's scoring goals in pre season but against the likes of Harlow Town and Bishops Stortford.
Whilst the Spurs may not have the physicality, you don't get to the Spurs under 23 because you are useless. 100's of kids have been discarded along the way. Lets take all the positives especially as 3 goals were each scored by 2 groups of players.
Not so long ago we we tanked by Fulham's youngsters and before that Arsenal's. Look like progress to me
