Pre-Season 17/18 Sheffield FC v. Sheffield United XI - 11/07/2017

[Foxy]

The Blades send an XI up to Sheffield FC on Tuesday night.

Tickets are available on the gate and kick off will be 19:30.

Here's your match thread for any discussion surrounding the game...

 

[DifferentClass]

Mostly kids I'm assuming then.

 

[Torrix1889]

There was someone saying on one of the Facebook pages that Ched was staying home to play in this rather than go to Spain...

 

[Tyler Durden]

I haven't been to Sheffield FC for a while despite being a club member. Bloody part timer.
Sooner they get back to Olive Grove the better.

I'm poor at recognising players in civvies. But, I think that is Evans about to board the flight to Malaga

He's just waving them goodbye and wishing good luck to the lads.

Should be a decent watch. Will be good to see our first year Pros with a few new scholars also. I have heard Wilson, Reed and Done will be playing.

First year pros larkymasher ,does that mean Slater,Hallam,Smith etc etc?

I'm sure you don't go "up" to Dronfield from Sheffield, you go "down" as its to the south. Even though you need to go up a hill.

Is that Ched 4th from the right? If so he may be carrying a bit of timber.

If i approach from Eckington,am i coming from the side to Dronfield?

Ty Smith, Hallam, Gilmoor, Mallon, Hirst, Norrington Davies are all first year pros.

Graham, Slater, Cantrill are 2nd year scholars.

I would expect all these to play plus Jake Wright Junior who is 20 and a couple of first team players who have not traveled to Spain and a selection of other 1st and 2nd year scholars.

Enjoy the game pal.

 

[Philip Reed]

Reed definitely not playing

 

[larkymasher]

Reed definitely not playing

With any luck he has secured a good loan move..... needs first team football.

 

[EddieColquhoun]

Is that Jake Bennett on the far right of picture?
If so he must have had a good pre-season with Freeman and Baldock ahead of him in the pecking order.

It is.

Few trialists today, anybody any ideas?

Also, who's this Kieron Wallace guy? He must be new.

I really hope it's not Kieran Wallace.

Yes, but I'm guessing there's a reason they were listed as trialists... So I'll not name in case anyone gets in bother

People should at least have recognised number 9.

PS. None of them were Esrom Nyandoro

 

[seanbeenstattoo]

We really have to sign Sheffield FC s keeper. On condition he changes his name to Seymour.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Them trialists are almost as common as them Dembeles.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

William Kakola is a name that should lift the world cup.

I really can't be arsed keeping Trialist No. 9 a secret. What a caper. At least it might mean ClickBait for my Blog. So, a brief report on Thornbridge Beers, SUFC U23s at Sheffield Club & the not so mysterious Trialist No. 9 on my Blog. (I have taken legal advice before naming names).

Nice to see Lee Morris is still playing.

 

[Ball_Sup (Phil)]

As an aside, I also overheard that one of the players named on the Teamsheet shouldn't have been - farce.

I named him on twitter during the game, but figured there might have been a reason, so reigned it in a little

Which one?

I don't know. I tried to whittle it down by a process of elimination. Thing is, you know, it's all a bit of nonsense. So many "rumours" doing the rounds in the stands. At least in the PDL, teams have to name all the players & you can Google 'em to your hearts content. Did they really think, with all the anoraks at a game like this, that no one would recognise No. 9? As the teams were warming up I said to Mrs Ball Sup "show me the team again, I don't remember seeing *he who shall not be named* name on the list...."

There surely cannot be referee with a pea in his whistle who doesn't know him anyway.

 

[Foxy]

A Trialist...

 

[Ginger Gnome]

I wondered why he was mentioned in the tweets, but didn't appear on the teamsheet, clearly because it's an alternate reality version of him from the darkest timeline.
