Doesn't seem to be, from his record. The T&T Guardian says Devon, but that could be a misprint if its like ours!

Played in America but wasn't a massive success . Good international record but the opposition only equivalent to conference and below. Also 29 years old. But if he impresses on trial give him a years contract. We have just lost one successful international don't you know.

Nor me - just wishful thinking on my part.

walsall's the only place either's been a popular 1st team regular.


I think we are pretty sorted in midfield. However, it would be nice to have Ledesma coming off the bench though. A real game changer who excels when he has a chance to show off and be a hero. Not sure about starting him on a wet winter night in Hartlepool though. Probably a why he has struggled in Middlesborough, it's a bit warmer down here in the south!

like hammer said, they'd play behind the striker, where we've just lost 2. forwards, if you like.

Deano looks like a red-neck with that hat on. I think he's saying to Holden, "I bet you think I'm a city slicker don't you."
Mantom is thinking, "Why has the boss asked me to go and get him his banjo?"

No offence meant by the way - harmless banter :P

He's ginger, if he takes that hat off, he'll look like a twiglet in about 20 seconds.

Smith, Holden and Mantom out in the sun at the same time.

Hope the after sun is in the fridge.

Mantom's already looking a bit 'bright'.

With all the peeling skin by the time the season starts, we're going to look like a team of lepers.

19 year old striker, released by Doncaster at the end of last season. Previously released by Nottingham Forest for "being too small"!!! Loaned out to Belper from Doncaster, and scored on his Doncaster debut against Hartlepool only for it to be disallowed for a foul on the keeper.

Same thing happened to Shaun Wright-Phillips. Not bad company.

His only run was on loan at Belper - 8 in 10 games

The mighty Nailers!

I'll have to ask in the pub some of the locals if they've seen him play when he was at loan here.

Squad photo, couple of faces in there I don't recognise - annoying that number 12 is looking at the floor, definite trialist/T&T player.

Backrow: Dean Smith. 25-J.Chambers, 5-Holden, Hemmings, Downing, 20-??, Butler, 26-??, Purkiss, ??, Benning, (Behind Benning ???), 18-Ben George, x2 ???, Mantom, D.Mole, Ro'K, A.Chambers

Front Row: Featherstone, Baxendale, 52-Danny Griffiths??, 57-Flannagan, 21-Morris, 12-??

Which leaves Liam Roberts, Andy Taylor, Matt Preston, and any trialists which I may have missed off.

Liam Roberts is probably number 26, and I think Mat Preston hasn't come thanks to his injury, but I am not 100% on that. No idea where Andy Taylor is though.

20 looks like Troy Hewitt.

Yeah I think it looks like him, different hair though. Guy next to Ben Purkiss looks a lot Richard O'Donnell too.

Another one here, you can get a good look on some of the T&T players' faces too.
