TICKETS: Mickleover Sports fixture tonight

The Sky Blues’ pre-season campaign continues tonight with an away game against Mickleover Sports.

The squad for the game will largely be made up of Under 23s players, with most of the first-team next in action at this weekend’s matches versus Liverpool Under 23s and Nuneaton Town.

Tickets are available to buy on the gate tonight, with a 7:30pm kick-off in Derbyshire.

TICKETS: Mickleover Sports fixture tonight

City – who are taking their first team squad – are expected to be significantly stronger than Derbyshire-based Evo Stik NPL Premier League side, although the non-leaguers beat Notts County 4-0 just over a week ago at the Don Amott Arena.

The fixture was arranged following City assistant manager Steve Taylor’s move from Mickleover – where he was also assistant – to Coventry in March.

It must be that same source..

 

[fatso]

To be honest, this seasons u23 squad looks better than last seasons first team!

 

[RoboCCFC90]

Team tonight then (a guess);

RCC, Dion KE, Hyam, Leahy, Camwell (if fit), Shipley, Stevenson, Devon KE, Reid, Finn, Ponticelli..

 

[Nick]

Wonder if he will play Pearson and Moorhouse too to get a good look?

rcc,dke,camwell,stevenson,reid,finn,ponticelli could all play a part of league 2 campaign

Probably right, hopefully see Pearson and moorhouse. I imagine Turnbull and Reid might feature

 

[IrishSkyBlue]

i hope he does, id love see more of moorhouse see what he can do and get a contract sounds like he is worth having in the squad.

Season starts for me today. Drinking in the nags head now, I don't live far away so it was an easy decision. Anyone making the trip?

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Watch out for little Billy Stedman, lovely footballer, only 17 and starting for the 23s

 

[sw88]

The ct are utter Fanny batter

Shame no Moorhouse or Pearson, maybe they might feature at the weekend?

TEAM NEWS: Young Sky Blues side named against Mickleover Sports

Seen Jason Farndon is managing them tonight and 4 U18s are involved

 

[mark82]

Glad I didn't bother going down now.

 

[RoboCCFC90]

Steadman, Finn (as alluded to) and Ponticelli the standout players in the team sheet, however JT (Jordan Thompson) and Reece Ford are very good looking CB's, Hickman will overlap all day long from wing back.

A bulk of this team being the U18's team from last season, which is very pleasing to see.

Absences in Moorhouse and Miles, got to think those two have been released if they haven't made tonight's squad.

 

[malkitccfc]

Clinton Morrison must be older than our squad combined

 

[sw88]

Away kit looks decent!
