I've not been around eos/ll football and I don't know anything about university teams beyond the fact that we were due to play them this week. So what you're telling me is that any club looking for a pre season friendly should avoid this lot and Edinburgh Uni like the plague. Is that the gist of it? Edited: Surely it can't be lack of players? They've got 6 teams and over 100 playing members. You'd think they could rustle up 14 or so from that lot. Their 2nd XI are looking for opponents on Thursday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much to gain for both teams pulling in players from 3rd/4th teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will see tomorrow if any changes made and how many trialists are used again , with the league starting on saturday the time for giving players a run out is over and i believe Hislop is back so he may not want all Binghams youngsters anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure i agree with that at his late stage You need to know your team can do 90 minutes on Saturday and not keep making at least 5 changes during the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selection has been pretty consistent across what tomorrow will be a 6th game in 17 days. Players had lots of game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed but he is a midfielder lol With their full 1st choice 11 out i would hope WW will do well maybe not on Saturday but certainly better than Preston A couple of positions perhaps still up for grabs and depending on the formation may decide on that Where to play Martin ? is Manson a winger ? start young AAron ? drop John Hall ( although i heard he was suspended anyway ? Keane at left back or winger risk playing Ohara or play the trialists again ? 442 352 4231 343 all part of the fun ps pedro as for the cupboard being bare , the manager stocked the cupboard so thats his problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
