We fielded a very young side and had 3 trialist too so was always going to be a hard task. Wonder who the 3 trialists are?????
Strange I would of thought this would be a great opportunity to get some first team players some game time
Gashead79 the Bournemouth game is either a week before or a week after the Newport County match, think it's Tuesday 15 nov
I agree he should have played him and a few others too, im just trying to think of a reason why he didnt and thats the best I can come up with
Does anyone know anything about the trialists. Looking at the team they would appear to be a defender a midfielder and a striker
Nope. DC holding his cards close to his chest again. Surprised he is looking for more players unless they are youngsters.
