Trialists

[Trevor Hockey]

Anyone have anything on the 2 spaniards and Nigerian trialist with the reserves tonight ?.

 

[H. Metal Blade]

No but the way blackie was all quiet and reluctant about them on Raadio Sheff last night leads me to believe he must see something in them and wants it kept quite so other bidders don't potentially join the game.

Pity we won't have any eyes at this game, just have to wait and see.

Normally, i'd have considered going

But its a bit of a journey and i'm playing footy tonight instead (no, i'm not one of the trialists, I've already turned a deal down )

 

[judge]

where are they playing ?

 

[Foxy]

where are they playing ?

They are playing Leicester at the Crisp Bowl

And there I was thinking you'd finally got your chance for stardom.

According to the ever so reliable Blades-Mad rolleyes this is one of the Spaniards we have on trial:

[Trevor Hockey]

Thanks for Lee - lets hope at least one of them turns out better than your namesakes spell with the Blades !!

i live in cheshire, but i am a season ticket holder, and whilst driving through the outskirts, i saw a big african guy (not a clue who) in a very expensive looking suit, being escorted to a silver mercedes by two guys in sheffield united jackets.

might just be a coincidence, but it might help

**near the stag? anyone know it?

 

[Lee Baxter]

Stephen Appiah would be nice. He's been a free agent for over a year, despite being a regular in the Ghanian national team.

Think I need to stop dreaming.

we can all dream lee, people say i look like fernando torres, maybe i can convince blackwell i'm his brother, and i'll get a trial

 

[Houso]

So, we lost 4-1 at Leicester.

Players whose names I don't recognise:

- Ahmadi
- Carole (surely not Seb?)

Oh, and Hendrie went off injured.

Is it this chap by any chance?

[judge]

i got the impression that only fortune and fotheringham would be playing in the reserve game and the trialists would just be training with the team

 

[Houso]

I very much doubt it as he's got a club and is highly rated.

One can only hope eh! There's no other Ahmadi that I could find...

 

[Houso]

Nor me.

Wouldn't worry, it's probably just Esrom Nyandoro again. The tinker.

 

[Bergen Blade]

Random guess, there seems to be a Swedish striker called Ali Ahmadi who's had various trials at different European clubs, including Celtic. Only 17 years old.

Ahmadi is a very common name in Iran/Iraq though.

The other guy is Seb Carole. We can't get enough wingers now all of a sudden.

 

[cooperblade]

Carole's about 5 foot 4 isn't he? Perfect. He seems to have been with us on and off for a year or so now

 

[Lee Baxter]

Yep, it is Seb Carole. If I remember right, Blackwell doesn't have him on trial with a view to signing him. He's just helping him stay fit in his search to find a new club. Did Blackwell sign him at Leeds?

 

[Liaminho9]

anybody heard anything else about the triallists?

 

[Sensiblade]

anybody heard anything else about the triallists?

Didn't Blackwell say he'd make up his mind on Friday?

 

[MAQ]

he did indeed

 

[Liaminho9]

i meant the mystery ones haha (2 spaniards + 1 nigerian)

 

[uniblade]

any news on the trialists ??

 

[Liaminho9]

Blackwell says he wont take on any of the triallists (fortune + fotheringham)

 

[Come from away]

Fortune continues to train while he recovers from injury.
