Title: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Quagmire on Thursday, August 20, 2020, 21:00:56 I have it on pretty good authority that we will be playing Melksham in a Friendly next Tuesday at their place, with a small crowd allowed.
Tickets will be going on sale Monday - so keep an eye on Melksham’s Twitter page. Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Flashheart on Thursday, August 20, 2020, 21:14:06 We won today against Abbey Hey FC by 5-0

Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Batch on Saturday, August 22, 2020, 16:58:28 Wellens confirmed, but says it will be youngsters and fringe players.
also we have Brentford at home and Bristol city away. both on Saturday. didn't think we had enough players for 2 squads :) Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Jimmy HaveHave on Saturday, August 22, 2020, 17:50:30 Wellens confirmed, but says it will be youngsters and fringe players. also we have Brentford at home and Bristol city away. both on Saturday. didn't think we had enough players for 2 squads :) Bristol City away dosen't sound very good for the players confidence unless they put out a under 23's as they stuffed Cheltenham 4-0 yesterday Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Batch on Sunday, August 23, 2020, 14:55:15 https://www.melkshamtownfc.net/post/melksham-town-v-swindon-town
Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Bogus Dave on Sunday, August 23, 2020, 14:57:40 Would have been just about my limit to go to for the game, but not to go the day before the game too to get a ticket. Ah well, shame you can’t buy online
Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Crispy on Sunday, August 23, 2020, 15:09:33 Shame that. Won't be going up to get a ticket and certainly wouldn't be paying £12 for a pre-season friendly.

I would, but he did say it would only be youth and fringe players Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Crispy on Sunday, August 23, 2020, 15:55:17 That's fair enough, yeah I did hear that. Went to the fixture last season and it was used in a similar way without many first teamers, although Keshi did play and banged a hat trick if I recall!
Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Batch on Sunday, August 23, 2020, 15:56:40 few trialists on site last year too iirc
Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Crispy on Sunday, August 23, 2020, 16:03:33 few trialists on site last year too iirc Quote Anderson, Toumani Diagouraga and Jermaine McGlashan accompanied a largely youthful Swindon Town starting XI. Trialist Ted Smith was given his chance between the posts while Tyler Reid, Curran, Tom Broadbent and Joe Romanski made up the back four. Another trialist, Sanohko, started in midfield alongside Diagouraga, Anderson and McGlashan. Scott Twine and Tear began the game up front. Spot on. Sanokho scored an absolute screamer! Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Batch on Sunday, August 23, 2020, 16:31:33 what happened to sanokho?
I guess we released him, or his diet term deal expired but I can't recall it actually happening Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Costanza on Sunday, August 23, 2020, 16:43:33 He was reported to be going to Waterford but it didnt happen.
Wellens also said Sidy was a victim of Anthony Grant's availbility from Shrewsbury. Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: The Artist Formerly Known as Audrey on Sunday, August 23, 2020, 16:48:27 That fella Balamboula, or whatever, who played 2nd half v Coventry last week is at Doncaster on trial.
In other friendly news, FGR beat Bristol Rovers and Coventry beat Franchise Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Miles Mayhem on Sunday, August 23, 2020, 17:35:34 I think I’m going to go as it’s just up the road. £12 is a lot for a non league team but god I miss watching the Town. Also kids get in free

In other friendly news, FGR beat Bristol Rovers and Coventry beat Franchise Ahh Bahamboula. As stated, the Birmingham Bamboo . Naturally, being a relative, I thought he did alright :) Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Jimmy HaveHave on Sunday, August 23, 2020, 18:24:50 Ahh Bahamboula. As stated, the Birmingham Bamboo . Naturally, being a relative, I thought he did alright :) Blackpool 3 Everton 3 Anderson played well, Yates had a quiet game and neither scored Title: Re: Melksham Town Friendly Post by: Crispy on Monday, August 24, 2020, 12:43:45 Shame that. Won't be going up to get a ticket and certainly wouldn't be paying £12 for a pre-season friendly. A colleague has just brought himself and I a ticket, so I take that back. Will update here tomorrow eve if noone else from the Forum is there. |
