Pre-season Friendlies Match Thread

MON said earlier that Luke Young had no chance of playing tonight.

I'm surprised Albrighton's playing again, he's played every pre-season game so far i think. Would'nt surprise me if he did'nt even make the bench for the first game though.

Maybe - just maybe - MON thinks he's ready to step up to the first team so is giving him a thorough test.  Got to be a better bet than McGeady

Well, we can dream can't we?

Of the non-youngsters who hasn't played this pre-season ?

Salifou ? When is his contract up ?
Delph - injured
Osbourne ?
Collins - injured ?
Milner - well, no point speculating

[Beijing Villan]

Based on Albrighton's brief appearances I see no need to buy McGeady. Between him, Downing, Ashley and Gabby (at a push) why do we need to look at more wingers? There are other more problem areas.

Hope Albrighton has another good game tonight.

Salifou played against Walsall. He just played like Salifou would be expected to play really. No idea what he's still doing here tbh - must be on a rolling one year deal!

Collins pulled up within thirty seconds of the start at Walsall.

Osborne came on aganst Peterborough I think.

Osbourne has played 2/3 times for us in pre-season.

Collins playede against Walsall but was injured after 10 seconds.

[Beijing Villan]

Thanks. Any idea if Collins has a serious injury? Thought he was excellent last season.

[Olneythelonely]

Thanks. Any idea if Collin's has a serious injury? Thought he was excellent last season.

I think it was a calf strain, not too serious I think.

[TheEgo]

Ok im going for a 2-1 win for us. Sidwell and Carew

[Karl Bridges]

Calf strain, apparently not serious.

[PaulWinch again]

Come on lads!

[Toronto Villa]

the black kit looks really quite cool

[cdbearsfan]

I'd forgotten about Saviola. I remember we were always going to sign him to play alongside Angel. Until we found out we'd have to pay to get him.

[curiousorange]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but did that not just say Milner was playing?

Agreed  looks the business!
