Triallists

Information on the squad playing in the Joma tournament here: Stanley squad to take shape (From Lancashire Telegraph)

To summarise the situation re: triallists ...

Six players taken to Devon:

Sean Hessey (central defence)
Andy Parkinson (wing)
Ray Putterill (central midfield)
Rory Boulding (forward)
Jon Bateson (full back)
Michael Jukes (midfield)

Players no longer required:

Ben Hoskin
Danny McDonough
Dermot McCaffrey
James Bennett
Oliver Devenney
Michael Burns
Marc Manga
Vessoko Gramero
Ryan Kendall


Bateson didn't play in the Clitheroe game, but the other five looked good enough and I'm particularly pleased that we have a chance of signing Ray Putterill (but will Coley drop Proccy to accomodate him?).

I didn't go to the Heswell game, but from the nine players released, I thought Ryan Kendall looked a good, strong striker against Clitheroe and Ben Hoskin can clearly play at this level, but Jon Bateson (ex-Bradford) as been retained as the right full-back.

We still only have two forwards, discounting wingers.

Any thoughts from those who went to Heswell?
 
Interesting article to read, impling that even if we do not sort the embargo we can still sign players - so why the embargo?? 9 more ready to sign, so that would be the likes of Bavs, McConville, Winnard and Co. Leam still training with the club - so will he be staying???

Just hope that Coley can perform some miracles with the likes of Hessey and Parkinson!!!

"Implying" being the operative word, mate! The article uses that catch-all phrase "it is understood" so it's by no means certain that they'll grant us dispensation. After all, if the LT have their facts right, we will be asking for dispensation to register 16+ players! Even if they do, I would imagine it'll be temporary and they sure as hell won't be fobbed off with vague promises like "in a couple of weeks"! :eek:

unless i'm going senile it was "understood" just days before court that everything would be sorted!! n but fer the timely appearance of I.K. n P.M. that morning it woulda been, we would have NO CLUB. How much more of this crap do they expect people to tolerate?:mad:
 
As much as I like Leam, we have not had much return from him in the last 2 seasons, pay as you play can be the only way forward for Stanley, we cannot afford any more passangers!!
 
My pre occupation would be getting a big striker in rather than defence. Think Rotherham's Drewe Broughton may have become available. Not sure if he still is.
 
Thought jon Bateson was very good tonight,composed on the ball and defended well.He slotted into the right back position with ease and can play centre back.
He played rb at blackburn and played with Deano for years,dont think he had a fair crack at Bradford ( there captain was rb )
Although Tom Lees played well last year,i always rated Bateson a better player.
Jimmy Ryan against Blackpool was different class and some of the football played ( on the deck ) was brilliant , hope they play Linfield up front on his own as the three midfielders plus mc conville love to attack

Disagree. Craig Lindfield worked very hard last night but he is more of a holding player than out-and-out striker. As for Sean McConville, he was anonymous. I'm not sure if he was supposed to be on the right wing but he rarely was. Far too many Blackpool attacks started on the left wing.

There in lies one of the problems in that McConville will be tried in most forward positions to be accomodated, I think he will go on to be a decent player but we already have a competent tried & tested natural right winger when he gets a chance:(
 
If you was at the game , acci played a 4 - 1 -4 -1 system where proctor sat in allowing the four midfielders to interchange , ryan was popping up everywhere, left,right,centre to blame mc conville for anything is unfair, look at the amount of chances and corners created against a prem team who have a good work ethic
