Did that new Goalie you signed play at all?

We had him on trial until a few days ago.


Reice Charles-Cook? No, his signing was confirmed just after the game, so didn't play yet. I think he has only signed because our GK coach knows him from some of his training courses and will mainly be playing youth/reserve matches

Really? We had him on trial to see if he could be the back-up keeper to Frank Fielding. Suggests he might have something? Although he apparently didn't impress our coaching set up.

We've still got a Dutch youngster (ex and a former Cardiff keeper on trial (and currently at our training camp in Spain), so we'll see what comes of that.

Both of our senior keepers we released: Tom Heaton went to Burnley to replace Lee Grant who went to Derby, who then dislodged Frank Fielding who came to us. Dean Gerken has just signed a deal at Ipswich.

We've got this new youth-focused policy, not sure if its best to apply this to goalkeepers however we could have our first choice who is 25/6 and then our second choice being 20/23. I suppose if they are good enough, they're old enough.

I always thought Fielding was one of the better Championship GK's.

Me too :/.

Obviously fell down the pecking order. He's certainly one of the best GK's now in League One.

Well, he would be third coice in the current peckin order. We still got Trevor Carson, then we recently signed Rob Lainton who is highly rated and apparently turned down Championship offers to come here, and we are still trialing keepers. So unless, Carson leves, he will only be third choice keeper

St Blazey 0 Bury 15

Forrester (7), Soares (4), Rooney (3), Procter

Decent turn-out against a fairly poor side from Cornwall. Aaron Forrester is a trialist from Blackburn and sounded like the best thing since sliced bread. Also had Jamie Lowry, Aidan Chippendale and Mark Randall on trial

That can't benefit anyone surely?!

Although I am saying that as a fan of a team who lost 2-1 to Clevedon Town :/. A former co-worker of mine (who is an amateur footballer) scored the winner for Town.

Anton it is

I'd imagine he'd only go on loan to you, we only bought him ourselves from Everton in January, and he bagged a few for the reserves in the second half ot the season.

We play Wadebridge Town on Thursday, They play a league below St Blazey, wonder what that scoreline will look like. Clearly, Blackwell arranges these friendlies just for the lols. He didn't even sub anybody today.

Ah yes, Anton. Also says on our website we are looking to loan him. Sounded like the best thing since sliced bread today, but I'd like to see him against a half-decent team first, before I judge him

3-1 loss to Portugal's Rio Ave, who were 3-0 up in 25 minutes.

Pardew's already talking bollocks in his post match interviews. So it sounds like we're prepared to continue last season's abject misery but with added Kinnear.
