Gotta be a first vs Supermarine for no trialists hasn't it? For many years at least.
Shit weather for it today too, usually roasting playing them.

That’s a shame, my favourite part of pre-season is the manic online hunt for look-a-likes

Todays line up.
 Exactly as Ollie suggested, no A.Trialists at all. |

I find the expectation from some a little strange. Its excessive media hype, being touted by many as the "next Jamie Vardy" but in reality who knows, he could be great he could be woeful, we will see soon. |

Tabor will be an interesting one, I don’t think people realise just how low down the pyramid he has been playing. We are going to need to be patient as it likely will take time for him to adjust and make the step up. As a comparable though Wycombe signed Richard Kone from the same level as Tabor.Reading X some of our fans are basically expecting him to fire us to the title and he’s going to be one of the best players in the league. It just seems really weird how expectations can be this high for him, kind of indicative of how some get massively carried away every summer. Kone played last season in L1 and scored 21 goals past season. At Athletic Newham he scored 125 goals in 148 games over 5 seasons. His highest was 42 goals in a single season. Tabor scored 127 goals in 91 games for Amersham at the same level Kone played at (170 goals in 3 seasons) with his highest being 70 goals in a season. As with every non league player though there are many risks |

Austin went Poole to us pdq. That’s the exception rather than the norm though surely, also Austin was originally in Reading’s academy. The other thing with Austin was that he was well built so ready for any physicality.Not saying that Tabor won’t hit the ground running, but I find the expectation from some a little strange. |

Then again, some people post HMS Piss the League when we sign somebody who sat on the bench a team that play in the same league |

Swindon Supermarine play in the Southern Football League Division One South, which is Step 4 in the English football league system. This means they are in the ninth tier of English football overall.
