Rooney and Brough were there, not sure on Brown and James
Did they play?
no - but they were there so probably slight knocks.

Pete Wild in his post-match interview with Adam didn't say what the injuries were, but I think he said Brough back to non-contact training next week, Brown the week after and Rooney the week after that.

Anyone know who it is? Chris on commentary said one of the trialists are only there to make up the numbers
Probably number 14
I think that's right. A few people said hi to him before he went on. Didn't look too far out of place though.

Benni Smales-Braithwaite joined Southampton from Man City's Academy which could mean an Adam Temple connection. Been linked with a possible move to Falkirk.

Thanks for correcting me. Yes; it was Greenock Morton
Isn't Greenock part of Glasgow?
How time flies. Could have sworn it was in the 70s but you're probably right.
How could you forget the pre-season home match with Greenock Morton July 31st 2006.
No recollection of it. Like I say - I don't DO friendlies. The fixture with Morton that I saw was played decades before! And was also the last occasion I watched a 'friendly'

Wasn't that James Jones being referred to rather than Luke James?

Off to a winning start!
Goals from Gordon, Bennett and a Trialist secure the win here at Rakesmoor Lane.
Holker 1-3 Barrow

GORDON scored? No Way!
Really? Was it a fluke?
Blown in by the wind? Came off the Ref? A cross that was diverted into the net?
Anybody got any video footage of this historical moment?

Pete Wild says Brown and Brough carrying knocks although Brough took the warm up for the lads,Rooney had an operation and won’t be back for around 4 weeks and will probably miss the opening games of the season.No Luke James there today so wonder if he’s off?

Bit Harsh mate, I like Flash & you never know he might shine brighter under Wild & with a more attacking formation, He has all the attributes but we all know he needs to score more & I hope he dies just that

Glad to hear that he scored today but I still don't rate the geezer.

a good workout and 2 totally different Barrow sides in each half. Thoughts on the new guys and trialists;-
Solomon Nwabuokei looks a great signing - was all over the pitch getting involved and breaking up play.
Sam McClelland looks like a real player - confident, composed and a threat from corners.
Billy Waters good close control, had a couple of shots saved.
Richie Bennett - we know what he can do - and he did it - he gives an extra dimension in attack that we didn't have last season.
George Ray - good in the air composed on the ball. solid.
Tyrell Warren - solid enough performance, played at left back 2nd half, but is usually a right back.
Sam Foley - didn't notice him too much so can't really comment
the 3 triallists 14, 17 and 19;-
14 - didn't impress too much.
17 - i liked the look of - good hold up play and linked well with Waters and Stevens. (Max Riley - the announcer actually named him as the 1st half sub)
Screenshot 2022-07-02 17.46.25.png
19 - in and out of the game a bit, but scored that screamer (Benni Smales-Braithwaite of Southampton according to MT on the EFL 2 forum)
He was awful that riley up front second half.
Hopefully won't see him again
Good run out, Jordan Stevens looks back to how we first saw him.

Splendid. Did they announce the attendance? To get an idea and gauge the financial input for HOB rather than the strength of our travelling support
