Pools v Rangers kids

Renamed in memory of John Hawksworth, a stalwart member who passed this day 2nd August 2020. RIP Mr Monkeybutt.

Sadly we must add the name of Kevin Minton, Aka Mr Ripper who passed 30/6/22. Kev was also Mr politically incorrect but a nicer lad you could never meet.

Might be wrong but I can’t see many travelling fans coming to watch a bunch of kids, might be a few local exiled ones though.

You have rain no it’s only a light shower not like the rain you get here, only good thing is it’s warm rain and only lasts a couple of hours.

In that case I’ll predict a 136-135 narrow win in such a marathon game.

One things for sure Rangers won’t be risking any of their first team squad as they have a Champions League Qualifying game against Panathinaikos on Wednesday.

The Rangers fans I encountered before & during the game where brilliant and a credit to their team, they sang and cheered from start to finish, for over 500 hundred of them to watch their under 21 team is fanaticism at its best.

Looking at the team sheet for today and the photos from today, the only two outfield trialists were Daniel Nkrumah and Josh Donaldson. Looks like we've scattered Bartlett-Antwi.
I reckon we'll sign Nkrumah, and reading comments from people at the last two games josh Donaldson looks pretty decent.

I can't see us signing Daniel Nkrumah after watching him today. He wasn't the worst player in a pools shirt but didn't do enough for me to earn a contract. The young keeper on trial isn't good enough and should have done better for their 2nd goal but Josh Donaldson did look usefull.

Thanks for the info, just seeing Nkrumahs name mentioned a lot over the last few weeks, thought that might be the signing.
Donaldson looks a stocky lad for being 19, and I'm assuming he'll know Miley quite well. Sounds like he has something.
