Pre-season games 2022/2023

[Stranded]

Wickham and the Forest Green left back definitely played.

Brandon Ormonde-Ottewill played at least some part at LB. Luongo played as well.

As mentioned before Brandon O-O is the player that a couple of Swindon fans at my local in Bassett have been banging on about. They’re convinced we’re signing him next week, based on reports in the Dutch media and one claims to be in the know. I can’t find anything about him. He supposedly had a drug problem but hopefully that was just hearsay.

That would fit with Bowen saying he expects LB to be sorted early next week.

I was expecting it to be the lad from F Green. However, he seems to be a midfielder but can probably play left wing back so not really sure. Maybe we’ll sign 2.

Could sign both given we have no left backs at all.

Who is the lad from Forest Green? Sorry, haven't really looked.

Cadden

Cadden

Has some pretty impressive stats... seems pretty attack minded. Plenty of goals and assists iirc

Think Courtney said we moved on as we need a defensive minded LB and Cadden didn't actually play LB last season.

Wonder if Cadden would be a left wing option if Hoilett doesn't re-sign (assuming that where he played last season)? Could still provide LB cover for injuries

It’s 4pm KO. I’m signed into my Royals account but I can’t find it under Royals TV. I did see somewhere “we hope to bring you coverage “ which didn’t fill me with confidence.

Advice welcome on how to tune in.

Presumably there’s heaps of triallists in the Reading squad as the OS has bog all team news.

Holmes
Jeanvier
McIntyre

Hutchinson

Azeez (RM)
Ince

Joao

[Snowflake Royal]

That's a weak ass midfield.

Which, to be clear, is to be expected seeing as we have three total, one who joined yesterday and one who has played barely a senior game there for us.
