Coxy27 Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 (edited) Decent half, some meaty challenges considering it's a friendly City technically a lot better than Bath, who have only threatened from set pieces where they're physically taller and have Lines on deliveries who's obviously a decent player despite playing for the Gas. Could be more than 2. Their goalkeeper seems to be havin' a 'mare! Several clearances charged down and scuffed a backpass that really should have been a third goal. Yeboah goal was a quality finish, and Francois megged the keeper. Edited July 11, 2023 by Coxy27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveF Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 Incredible free kick made it 2-1. City looked Good first half, poor second half after the subs broke up any momentum. Interestingly Yeboah started above Edwards and scored a beauty, even the announcers and Twitter confused them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerseybean Posted July 12, 2023 Report Share Posted July 12, 2023 Two goals in the opening seven minutes sent City on the way to a first pre-season defeat against Bristol City U23s at Twerton Park this evening. After this early double blow City more than played their part in a competitive encounter, deservedly pulling a goal back ten minutes from time through Dan Hayfield’s stunning 25-yard free-kick. The Robins goals were both scored by former City loanees, as on two minutes Owura Edwards was allowed the space to slot the ball past Ollie Wright. Then five minutes later the referee played a good advantage which saw Marlee Francois race clear and make it 2-0. Shortly after Hayfield’s great strike, Cody Cooke’s header was superbly saved by Casa-Grande to deny City a late equaliser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvio Dante Posted July 12, 2023 Report Share Posted July 12, 2023 Few interesting things there: - I would imagine that anyone who is “top age” of that group is likely to be not involved with the first team and hence moved on. I’d therefore say Edwards and Idehen are available for permanent transfer - we knew the latter but not the former - Kadji in with this group and OTC not indicates the latter remains ahead and we should expect Kadji to go on loan - The lack of Joe Low having also not attended Austria leads me to think, absent injury, there is an imminent move away from the club for him. Possibly on trial somewhere Going to Yate next Tuesday when the U23s play so will be interesting to see if the squad remains consistent 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coxy27 Posted July 12, 2023 Report Share Posted July 12, 2023 Anyone with Twitter access found a video of the free kick the Bath fella scored? Was there last night but not seen a video anywhere. Amazing strike from a long way out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted July 12, 2023 Report Share Posted July 12, 2023 So seeing as Owura started, we scored after 2 mins, I assume Bath’s Twitter admin were correct that he scored the opening goal…as some have said Yeboah scored…yet he was sub?

I'm pretty sure they mixed up numbers 11 and 22 - I was there, and to my eyes... Yeboah started and scored, Edwards came on as a sub. I may be wrong, but that's what we concluded. I think a correction was given to the announcers middle of the first half too as they had corrected themselves by half time... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owura started the second half - didn’t start the game. Yeboah did (came off after 55/60mins) and scored the first goal. Good finish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s Ben Acey, Bath spelled his name wrong on the teamsheet. Centre midfielder - Another one we signed from Guernsey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldlandReddies Posted July 13, 2023 Report Share Posted July 13, 2023 (edited) Acey did everything very easily and assisted the opening goal. He looks a tidy player. Shorter than Scott but similar in playing style. Even plays with his socks down. It was Yeboah who scored the first and what a fabulous strike it was. Francois took his goal very well also. U23's dominated the first half, defended well and passed the ball neatly and quickly. Second half was even as U23's made multiple changes. Bath's consolation goal was one of the best I've ever seen live. Stunning free kick. Not sure any of the U23's will break into the side this season but a few will definitely make the bench on occasions for experience. We have plenty to look forward to though .

The freekick was initially described 25yards out, and then after it was scored, was described as 30-33yards out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slight detour on the way home from West Brom away if memory serves me right. West Brom was also a very lively day out. City had 1000s there that day. Good times.
