Title: Ah the trial match Post by: Johno on Tuesday, May 3, 2005, 14:59:12 does this ever work for players?
also, why won't club tell us who is on trial? would it really make much difference, its really annoying. http://www.swindontownfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/NewsDetail/0,,10341~660566,00.html Title: Ah the trial match Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Tuesday, May 3, 2005, 15:05:33 They probably don't even know the players' names themselves, I imagine they've contacted one or two agents and told them to bring a few of their players down to the ground and that's pretty much it. Not very scientific really!
Title: Ah the trial match Post by: Dazzza on Tuesday, May 3, 2005, 15:13:13 Like OST said I'm not sure King has a clue who turns up until the day.
Eric Sabin's agent is usually involved in bringing over a French contingent and I dare say the rest are shipped in via agents and word of mouth. Would be interesting to reveal a couple of names but because of the contract situation we won't be finding out any time soon. Closest we hae ever come to signing someone from the trials where a couple of French players, one of them believed to have been released by a Premiership club the other had been playing in France. Always worth a crack it doesn't cost a great deal and you never know what may turn up.

'No change there then' Title: Ah the trial match Post by: Dazzza on Wednesday, May 4, 2005, 19:13:49 Think the Dutch chap that may be back in the summer could well be former U21 player Erik van Eikeren, currently doing the rounds on the trial front.

Apparently the trial match was a total joke but hopefully one of these interesting players will be good enough and will be here next season. |
