I disagree. As captain, I’d expect him (or anyone wearing the armband) to encourage those around him. And if he sees players on the pitch not putting in the desired effort, he should bollok them

Where I do agree is that he shouldn’t be spouting his mouth off to the press about it.

 

I agree, Wayne, yet also with @Onside as I think it was the 'media' quotes Mrs O was referring to.

 

I don't think he's awful, I just don't think he's that good or may be consistent would be a better word.

He's like the kid that you played with at school or sunday league who could do 50 kick ups, roll the ball across his shoulder and back heels it but then falls over the cone when doing dribbling drills.

 

Nicky Mohan was light years ahead of Jason Gavin and I can't believe you can't lump them both together as examples.

You'd have been more accurate lumping Gavin in with someone like Zesh Rehman.

 

He actually said that 'Carlton Palmer can trap it further than I can kick it'.
One of my favourite football quotes.

 

I wonder if McCarten will be risked on Sunday? Given his enochlophobia and all that.

 

Mine's not a fear of big crowds, it's a fear of big words....

 

Can't wait to see A Trialist on the line up report!

 

We're just struggling to contact them that's all

 

Can't wait to read what the T&A sport experts think of our new signings after seeing them for 45 minutes in a purely for fitness game.

 

Even if the budget is nearly full and we're waiting for players to move out that doesn't mean we shouldn't continue to look at players. Even more so with free agents, I'd have thought given the transfer deadline restrictions.

 

Train from Steeton to Shipley then change for Guiseley. The ground is a short walk from the station.
I'm planning on going on the train with the rest of the Long Preston supporters club plus maybe my mate who lives in Steeton

 

They do if they want deals.

 

Simply because I suspect we have spent quite a lot of the budget already.

If a few leave then I can see 1 or 2 trialists coming but GB seems to know who/what he wants.

 

The Donaldson Vaughan Trophy for Outstanding Contribution in a single match.

 

I’d be surprised to see more than 1 or 2 trialists for this game. Our squad is pretty full, bar a couple of midfielders so there doesn’t seem to be much point of taking anyone on trial unless there is a departure in the near term. Considering we’ve signed an entirely new back 5 and strikeforce, midfield seems to be the only place that there is likely to be any movement in or out.

 

Long Preston supporters club, where is this like (and don't say Long Preston ).

 

Tomorrow’s team will largely depend on whether any player has been feeling any tightness after their 1st week back. There will undoubtedly be some not risked, which could pave the way for a couple of trialists.

I simply do not think we will see a first XI in either half tomorrow and it will be more a case of just giving 22 players (min) a run out

 

Expect it will be a usual 1st pre-season team with a bit of mix and match team just so that as many players can get 45 minutes as possible with any players feeling a bit of tightness or niggles not risked which probably makes room for 1 or 2 trailists.
