Torpoint Athletic vs. Ebbsfleet United (Thu 17th Jul 19:00)

[Richard Chown]

As Im a member of MyFootballClub.co.uk, just got the following email, seems Ebbsfleet United will be playing a few trailists.

Team Selector for Torpoint Althletic is now Live

Dear Richard,

We are putting the team selector live for the Torpoint game. We have delayed it to get an idea of who is fit and what trialists might be in the team. After discussion with the coaching staff we know:

There are 15 - 25 trailists likely to be reviewed in pre-season

Some trailists who player on Sat won't come back or will potentially be released mid week.

Some trailist might appear in a squad having not been training all week (this happened in the game against Charlton because of the injury issues)

It is nearly impossible to stay up to date and accurate with which trailists are available for a game so we will leave the team selector with players who are under contract.

Every player trained this morning with the exception of Danny Slatter and Luke Moore. Luke Moore is likely to be available for the Torpoint game but Danny Slatter is unlikely to be available. We have changed the team selector to reflect this.

We have also added 3 PASE team members who can be selected.

Kwesi Appiah - Who featured in the Charlton game.

Sam Callendar - Who featured in the Charlton game.

Chris Kinnear - Who was on the subs bench for the Charlton game.

Regards,

MyFootballClub Team

Ebbsfleet Managers Comments on playing Torpoint and Bodmin today.

TGJ: What sort of games are you expecting from the West Country Tour games against Torpoint and Bodmin?

LD: They’re usually very committed, the teams down in the West Country. So I’m sure it will be a test, against two sides that will want to put one over us and give us a bit of a test physically too. So hopefully we’ll have a good run out and get 90 minutes into people who haven’t played, and come out of there without any injuries, which is that main thing.

If you are coming from the Plymouth side I suggest an early start as it would appear that the Torpoint Ferry's are going to be out of action due to strike action. Use the Saltash Bridge route as that is not affected

[Martin Mullis]

Will you be going to the game ECPL? I see that Bodmin are asking double the £3 to watch Ebbsfleet at Priory on Saturday!

Tor Blimey - Fleet put nine past Torpoint

Dear Richard,

Torpoint Ath 0 - 9 Ebbsfleet Utd

The Fleet put Saturday's 6-0 home defeat firmly behind them in tonight's second pre-season friendly beating Torpoint Athletic 9-nil, in what can only be described as a goal fest.

I couldn't get to the game due to other commitments, what with fuel prices being what they are now and with the Torpoint Ferry crews being on strike, going over the Saltash Bridge would have been an expensive trip to far. Shame about the result. Watch out Bodmin as Ebbsfleet seem a good side,
