My phone is offering to play up so hopefully this will last the whole match

Live updates will be coming from this game from me

Team lines

No team sheets available and no sign of them coming over the announcer so could be struggling to get the team news to you all

Callum Morris, I think.

Yes it appears that's who it is I'm meaning. Look's a good defender!

Morris looked the best out of the trialist defenders who were on show, won everything in air but admittedly had a horrific sliced miskick from punt in the box which went goalbound. To be fair, it wasn't much of a test for the defenders on trial, not a lot came their way so they were really being judged on a few touches. Hopefully training and pther friendlies will proivde a much better gauge for making a decision, there's certainly decent pedigree amongst them but little was shown today. McCann looked promising, though faded in second half. Confident touches and lay offs under pressure.

Shinnie worked his a$$ off (in left midfield) although wasted/good saves at the 2 clear chances he had and Morrison had some lovely touches in second half. Eric's first 2 were literally tap ins but he still had impressive sprinting prowess at end of game, must be some fit lad (although strolls in a way you'd think otherwise when game not near him). You can never criticise a right time right place finisher though.

Gil Blumanshtein was deceptive - looked to be carrying a few pounds too many but looks like he has a good footballing mind and created space out of nowhere on the few occasions he got the ball. Intriguing, and will definitely be pushing dani/eric for a place.

All in all, a typical pre-season friendly. As was mentioned, Rooney was never gonna score and if he was a trialist we'd be instantly dismissing him. So I'm happy to put my faith in Terry and Mo in picking out who is worthy of a place in the squad over fairer period. Oh and agreed, Shane Sutherland was a nuisance and impressed.

Morris is from Newcastle 'Born & Bread' and plays for the RoI under 21 team. I have seen him play for RoI on several occassions and he looked a decent defender.
