Anyone in attendance tonight? I assume the Trialists were the same tonight as last Friday? Slightly different starting XI by the look of social media but nothing I can see confirming a second half XI

Cheye Alexander was the right back. No idea on the forward.

My only issue with the Right Back is that the last time he played for a football club was in the 2023/24 season. Either he is injury prone or has an awful attitude and a big ego.

1 goal in two games against inferior opposition, same problems last season with no strikers any good or fit enough to play.

Massive red flag for me. When he left Gills in January last year Steve Clemence said he was struggling to keep players happy for game time. Yet he has played for no one else since… That isn’t a player who has left to play more football. Thats a player who has left because he wasn’t wanted and no one else wanted either. The reason why though is completely unknown to me, so I’d swerve him

Any suggestion we got a decent first half out of Umerah? Not expecting 25 goals this season but these first two games should have been a confidence builder after Solihull... Scuffed an easy to chance at Aveley
Did the small number 4 Trialist or the young Asian midfielder appear again? Both looked decent last week

Only seen first half team listed that included two trialists, Hemmings on bench, Wilson still not available and Umerah up front. On bench we had a further three trialists.
Would hope that Marsh and Wilson will be fit at the start of the season because impossible to judge any of these games at the moment or indeed the results with a view to new season prospects.

The defensive midfielder Gurung didn't play but was watching. Not sure about the other lad from last week.

Is Marsh invited or is the international clearance still to go through?
