Lita For Congo Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Wow. 0-0 at HT. Caskey scored a Cracking Free Kick. Stephen Gillespie! He was Red Hot, Scored 4, Hit the Post Twice, The Bar Once and could of easily of scored 9, but you cant expect him to put them all away. Lita looked poor. Always on his ass, then looking around to point the finger. Grant Monelle looked solid at the back and outshone Fortune who never used his hieght against them. The Winger for us. Scott Brown the 2nd was good, looked lively as did Goodfellow, who was taking on players for the fun of it. Couldnt tell you, who got them all. Gillespie 4 Caskey Lita(Pen) Goodfellow? Brown? Lita again? All in All worth making the trip. Good bit of football by City, and it looks as if that we got a couple of gems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lita For Congo Posted April 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 does the 4 goals mean we have a youngster joining ? how well did he play ? Look at the 4th sentance. . Caskey. Well, to be honest, he didnt put alot of effort in, he would give up on some 50/50's and wouldnt make runs BUT on the ball he was superb, never gave it away once, looked strong on the ball and his goal was class, he hit 2 other free kicks. One went about 40 foot too high, the other the keeper got a hand to it in a great save. We all know what he can do, but if i was the manager Saturday and he was on Trial, i doubt he would be in the squad. BUT thats his 1st game back for awhile, and like i said he looked gfood on the ball and when he did make foward runs he looked dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoke_Gifford_Red Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Were any of the trialists that had been released by Premiership clubs make you think they should be signed straight away on that performance? (I know it would be bad business sense to buy a player on one performance) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggdaps Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 How did Caskey play, anyone? I think Caskey did put quite a bit of effort in, but doesnt appear 100% fit yet. He was very vocal and made a couple of good chances. His passing out to Goodfellow was spot on and his free kicks almost Beckham-like! He did have the hint of a belly over his shorts I noticed!!

(I know it would be bad business sense to buy a player on one performance) No not at all. They would be free transfers anyways as they're getting released but i would deffo give them another 2 or 3 games. Especially The Winger Brown and Gillespie, who the way hes carrying on, should be signed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pinamonte Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 I reckon this Gillespie guy should be signed up. When did one of our players last get 4 goals in a game? He must be well good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x3widRacin Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 STEVEN GILLESPIE Date of Birth: 4/6/84 Position : Centre Midfield or Attack Nationality : English PLAYER PROFILE Very talented with excellent awareness, Childwall-born Steven's versatility means he can play central midfield or attack. He has a good eye for goal and proved that by scoring prolifically for the under-17s last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcfc seattle Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Hope Gillespie turns out how he usually does in Championship manager. funny I sign him on loan in the game and boom he's here on trial, goes to sign Henry now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 I doubt that any club would sign anybody after seeing them play just once, as they could have just had a one-off good game. 4 goals though I hate work :@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nogbad the Bad Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Gillespie looked a natural goalscorer, not brawny but pacey, good skill, wholehearted, and a real eye for goal. On a day he had to impress, he couldn't have done much more. Haven't been to a reserve game for years, so don't know how he compares with rival academy youngsters, but if this performance is anything to go, they'd have to be very good to deny him a contract. City should get him now before someone else nips in, we've very little to lose. Noticed an Everton scout in the crowd... Caskey was very classy, tremendous distribution and a Beckhamesque goal. Not fit though, he'll need a couple more reserve games and work on his fitness and he could be a real asset for the last few games. Certainly played like he's looking to make his mark at City.
