First professional match day is here!

Good luck to everyone today!
It's been a long close season 😊

PS. Wonder who the trialists might be?

[Saughall Robin]

I see Wythenshawe Town have announced a new signing will make his debut against us.
As yet unnamed but is said to be making his debut against his former club (i.e. Us).
Wonder who it could be?

WD&C lead 2-0 after 38 minutes, both goals scored by ex-Robins - Ben Elliott from the spot, and Dontay Gabidon.

Byrne, one of only 4 "first teamers" on show, not at fault for either if RR are to be believed. Hulme, Marriott, and Roxburgh are also playing. Hayden Campbell is the only identifiable trialist.

RR's choice of half time music had better not be prophetic - NoMore Heroes, followed by the Carnival is Over 😂

Curtis Miller?

Interesting game at West, with lots of triallists on show.

We played some decent stuff but they took their chances which were gifted to them, to be honest.

The new goalkeeper looked commanding but it didn't look like he covered himself in glory for their second goal (although I was at the ither end of the ground.

Baines seemed to be carrying a bit of weight and didn't look that mobile, which was a bit of a concern.

Marriott looked a cut above when he was on the pitch.

We went with Byrne, Baines, Marriott and Jordan down the spine - with the rest being triallists.

I'd probably take a look at all of them again at Trafford, perhaps aside from the No10 who was completely ineffective.

The full backs and wingers (2, 3, 7 and 11) all looked useful at times without being spectacular.

New kit looks ace.

[Alty Bri]

Cutting to the chase, I wasn't impressed by any of the trialists, but I'd certainly be taking a look at their number 7.
Yeah, kit was ace.

Parkinson OUT. 😱

Parkinson OUT. 😱

Don't be daft. Wrecsam will never sack him! 😉

Baines wasn't playing, the overweight centre half was a triallist

That's a relief! I know he's a left footed centre half so I assumed that was him. Thanks.

It was Elliot Wynne, our ex keeper

[One Foot in the Grave]

Was quite happy with our 2-0 half time lead, but then the outstanding Brad Jackson was taken off, and we produced very little in the second period. Apart from Jackson, I was fairly impressed with Ross Barrows. I wasn't taken with Liam Brockbanks though.

2-2 in our third fixture of the day, too:

Who missed an open net with just a defensive man on the line
