Does seem very odd to have a trialist playing in the first team at this stage. I suppose though given how light we are in that area maybe it was just a good opportunity to get a decent assessment without sacrificing game time for others.

It is an odd one

If it was to “make up the numbers” it would have been a u23, but they would have been named

Know the u23s have had a few trailists in recently, but can’t see one that could be potentially signing for those playing in this game

Only thing can think is that it’s somebody that we are very keen on or the deal is 99% done and we wanted to get them use to the team and way we play

There is a name from the past. Didn't he score 2 or 3 in a brief loan spell ?
Not sure just a loan signing that sticks in my mind purely from his name! We seemed to have a glut of loan wingers around the same time.

I remember one from around then (although not a winger) was Clayton, scored against Huddersfield think it was with a free kick when it seem to rain all day then seemed to vanish.

Remember this curled it round the wall down bee hole end! Think he got injured the game after possibly at Bolton and was never seen again! Glory days!

I see Pieters provide for JRod’s goal. SD has a major decision to make between him and Taylor. Different skill sets and I won’t cry whoever gets the nod. We are blessed at LB.

Daniel Black reporting the trialist was a former player looking for fitness.

Not necessarily but you would think it’s more than likely so close to the start of the season. But it could be a player at another club who we are interested in although then you get the risk of injury.

I suppose it shows we aren’t where we think we should be with recruitment if we are playing trialists at this stage.

Underwhelming to say the least if we re-sign Lennon, would Dyche use him if he was only training with us to get fit?

I find the secrecy ridiculous. One minute the club are selling everthing re. friendlies thus giving them, IMHO, exaggerated importance. Next thing they're slapping D-Notices on them until after the match. Surprised we even got a report. For Cadiz it will be "sell, sell, sell".

Crazy and disrespecful to the fans.

(Just my worthless opinion, mind).

You could well be correct CT, if he does play against Cadiz, will that mean he'll play against Brighton?, I guess so if he comes through the friendly unscathed.

Think about it, he has no club, he is 34, with what looks like no other Premier League suitors if indeed we are contemplating it. If he signed it would be absolutely nowhere near those figures
