Post by: Red Frog on Tuesday, March 2, 2010, 17:58:13
6'5" centre-back trialling for us tonight. Released from Plymouth in December and has recently been playing for Truro on non-contract terms. http://www.thisissouthdevon.co.uk/news/Gerring-eyeing-Hoddle-s-academy/article-1809192-detail/article.html (http://www.thisissouthdevon.co.uk/news/Gerring-eyeing-Hoddle-s-academy/article-1809192-detail/article.html)

We've got a strong lineup out, should be a canter. I notice they have a Vokes on the team, brother of Sam?

Perhaps Barry Fry works for them on an advisory basis...

Aren't we playing Bournemouth? They struggle to put a first team out so you can't expect too much from their reserves!

That's why i said it would be a canter further up the thread, not heard of one of their players.

Oh dear O'Brien is a complete waste of time, Always injured, He's worse than Barry Corr, Can see him being released at the end of the season.

Pretty one sided game against a very young muff side the trialist lad looked and Lesci at centreback was superb.The lad who came on for obrien whipped some lovely crosses in i think it was Matty barnes, it was a shame big Vince did not score he seems to be lacking a bit of confidence at the moment.

Can you expand on this? Where did he look? And what at?

I think this is a smokescreen to hide possible other signings - a red Gerring, if you like.

The other week I was pondering whether LJF could play a role in the centre, albeit as a DMC.

He is certainly a tall lad .. another in the mould of Tozer and Morrisson from the Plymouth school -

Hope he's more Morrison than Tozer. I've still no idea why big clubs were interested in Tozer.

I will always remember when an announcer called him Ben Tosser at Wycombe a couple of years back  :D

You need to find some more meaningful things to get nostalgic about...
