Anyone going? Seen this last night and thought 3 quid to get in, to see the trialists is worth a trip to Treacle Town!

Have they always charged for reserve games? I swear it was about 50p when we were at HR.

Sorry you got about three thoughts in one sentence lol

I've never seen U21s games promoted. Is it new or have I just missed it?

Robbie Neillson a friend of Pressley's is playing, along with the Brazilian striker (not yet named)

Ex Leicester. Pfft!

33, and looks a bit like Pressley. I'd say he is just doing a mate a favour rather than us looking at signing him

In this article it says we are not signing him. I think its literally pressley doing a mate a favour to get match fit, and maybe pass on some experience to the youngens.​

I'm not massively bothered, but wouldn't match experience be more important to whoever's place he's taken?

yeah i see your point, but lets say they give two of the youngests 45 mins each nxt to robbie and hes coaching them all the time, would probably help their progression more than 90 mins out there without any senior help. Whay do u think?

Not so sure, I'm afraid. Anyone know which number the trialist is? I think he's 10 but I'm not sure.

Trialist is number 10, Cov also 2-0, scorer of both goals was Nathan Ellington. 1st was a penalty, 2nd was a cut inside the defender and a curling effort into the far side of the goal.

What a strike! City come close after a blazing run from the midfield. The shot unfortunately ricochets off the post.

Discussion with his agent, he seems happy. Can't tell his name, but was on trial at west ham and fulham last year.

Hard to say, he's quick, but no passes are getting to him.

4-0 down and he scores an "incredible 30 yarder" according to City's official Facebook page

Not sure. I did tweet covsupport but no reply yet. As the club have named him as 'trialist' I imagine it'll be another where they don't want him named, like Manset, although that one 'leaked' somehow

I think I might know who he is. If I'm right he's 6ft 3in tall and has played in China. He's unproven at any senior level, so a bit of a gamble. He's s free agent though, so obviously worth a trial.

I think he did score. OS reporting he did.

Any names being rumoured?
