bozman Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 There is an article on the United website which confirms they are putting out an Under 23 team tonight. http://www.manutd.com/en/Players-And-Staff/Reserves/Reserves-News/2017/Jul/ricky-sbragia-explains-footballing-philosophy-as-reserves-prepare-for-oldham.aspx?newsid=DF044956-8D47-4BA5-BD0E-0CBB96B3936E I wonder how we'll be treating it. Shez didn't seem too impressed with the timing of this one so close to the big kick off, so may choose to field mainly fringe players for most of the game.

dec666 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 (edited) United announced it from the start as being a reserve team friendly. All a bit of a waste of time really. I don’t think we’ll see a strong team from Shez this close to the season. Edited August 1, 2017 by dec666 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc_lover Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Pathetic game really. Their kids are hardly going to be a physical test and are just going to ping it about around our slow lads in defence. The absolute opposite of what we'll come up against this season so what does it actually achieve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpo Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Good Checkatrade Trophy preparation innit! But seriously, it's fine, a friendly against decent enough football players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcassist Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 (edited) Matt Chambers says Kyle Lethern is in goal and Gyamfi Kyeremeh (#17) from the Girona game will both be involved tonight. Matt Chambers @Matt_Chambers Hearing that Kyle Letheren will be in goal for #oafc tonight against United's under-23s. Not sure what that means re Niklas Bolten... Matt Chambers @Matt_Chambers Mystery trialist from Girona game, who I imagine will be involved tonight, is a Belgian winger by the name of Gyamfi Kyeremeh.

pcassist Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Alan NixonProtected Tweets @reluctantnicko 10m Oldham will gave a Championship reserve keeper on trial tonight. As they wait on Sunderland deciding on Stryjek loan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc1955 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Is Letheren the guy who played for us in a friendly a couple of weeks ago and then turned up at Bury? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think he played in a friendly but had been on trial training with us. I thought he went to Bury the day before the Stalybridge friendly. Anyway my mate who is a York fan says he's not good enough for this level. He also thinks Law is the messiah though! 3 goals from free kicks in pre season apparently. letheren played half a game for Bury conceded 3 and was sent packing.

Magic Mikey Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Come on Shez, get DJ Buffonge on loan. He did my son's twenty-first birthday do the other week. He'd be really useful around Christmas time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Guru Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Swap Banks for Gardner after his ban and possibly Davies for Duffus and that's probably our strongest line up 3-5-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bench is just named as 12 13 14 15 etc. due to having youth and trialist players in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
