Tyler French an AFC Sudbury player is coming in for a three week trial for the U23s.
 
When he's fit Page is a better LB than Purrington, but why disrupt a defense which has been the key to our recent good form? I don't think Bowyer will.
 
Good game at the Valley today in the last game of the U23 season. We beat Burnley 3-0 with two goals from Doughty and one from Odoh. All three goals were excellent strikes. Doughty was the star of the show, his Pace constantly worried Burnley. We had two trialists at centre half Vega from Ipswich and Mingi from West Ham. Vega was good Mingi was minging.
Forster- Caskey coasted through the game and misplaced a couple of passes. He was given 45 minutes. Page played well and was taken off after 60 minutes.
Cardigan man on CL says we are releasing nine players at the moment. A mixture of first team and under 23s I don't know who they are but Marshall, Cummings, Fosu and Kennedy were mentioned. At a guess I would say the others might be Ajose, Mascoll, Bowry, Umerah Hackett- Fairchild.

Here's how we line up
