Bishops stortford tonight

[Eat The Rich]

Is he any good?

He's got to be 26+ and he's still playing semi-professional football so I'd imagine he's a step off what we're looking for.

[Top of the JES]

3-2 cureton on with his customary goal against the Os

[Real Al]

Good preparation this, for when we inevitably throw away a 3 goal lead in the league.

Bring him back on.

Fair point. Not sure why we have non-league triallists. Why don’t we have uncontracted L1 and L2 players as triallists?

3-3

Impressed. You’re predicting we will get a three goal lead at some point.

[MrB]

Away draw. Result.

Bring him back ASAP.

[eagwgw]

Come on lads.... Just one person needs to slag off the side so then the mob can release their frustrations on him.

Anyone know who the midfield trialist was?

[Long slender neck]

Yes

[F*ck The Poor & Fat]

Not a clue

Disoriented asked if Chambers was any good. The implied question being whether we might be seriously looking to sign Michael Chambers. I pointed out the obvious reason why we wouldn't and you have inferred that I was actually against him turning out for us in a pre-season friendly to make up the numbers. Strange.

The source of your certainty being? I agree, signing him seems to make no sense but whenhas that mattered.

Well that was a game of two halves. 3-0 at half time scored some decent goals only stretched a couple of times at the back all good really. I walked past the Zbishop Stortford dressing room at half time and their manager was going ballistic telling them to get at our full backs who were ****. They certainly got at us second half and taking off Wright and the midfield triallist for Shabani and Alabi weakened us considerably. Judd and Sweeney started to look very vulnerable and the back four that looked OK first half started to look very uncomfortable. We conceded three shocking goals and created less.

Pros - Lee Angol will be a real asset this season and is a good finisher, he linked up well with JMD and Wilkinson, Ogie did Well frightening how good he could be. We won't field that inexperienced defence again. Credit the trialists who both did OK.
We looked far better with Wright anchoring the midfield first half.

Cons - Judd, Sweeney, Gorman, Alabi, Shabani were all poor. Did themselves no favours in the second half.

Shame that players who had a chance to shine, didn’t. Particularly Gorman and Judd who are contenders to start. Starting to like Angol based on clips. Him, JMD and Wilkinson likely starters as is Wright, looking OK. Result no big deal with Coulson, Happe, Ekpiteta and Widdowson to play. Plus Clay.

Depth is the concern.

[eagwgw]

Not too concerned about the goals, we had 3 kids and a trialist in defence. Pleased I bet on Angol for top League scorer, he looks more skilful than Bonne, although it remains to be seen if he will be as hard working.

I know it the weather is the same for both sides, but don't know why we didn't use the subs a bit more, and it might have been a lot to give some of the younger guys 90 minutes against old opposition. Not a surprise we dipped.

Taking off the likes of Sweeney, Ogie, Janata at half time or even 60 minutes would have been good. What was a great night for them turned into a bit of a downer.

Result has probably massively increased the chance of a couple of signings before the season starts.

It would be massively disappointing if we didn't bring in a winger/striker and a midfield player before Aug 3rd.
