Ric Flair Posted 12 January 2005 Posted 12 January 2005 Has anyone else heard we've got this 18 year old on trial all week from Bury? Apparently he's an attacking midfielder/striker and very highly rated. I'm surprised he didn't play for the reserves last night, or isn't that allowed when they are at another club? He's played about 12 times for Bury but has been used sparingly. Bury fans say that he looks an awesome prospect and that he'll succeed at any club he plays for. Let's hope Levein is keen.

Louise Posted 13 January 2005 Posted 13 January 2005 Blackpool hoping to take Wright for a loan spell by Gary Sherrard Blackpool are interested in taking Leicester City striker Tommy Wright on loan. The 20-year-old, who had two spells at Brentford last season, has made only five Championship appearances off the bench this term, and manager Craig Levein could be willing to send the youngster out elsewhere to get some first-team football. However, Levein has also indicated that he would not loan the player out until after the FA Cup replay with the Tangerines on Tuesday. A Blackpool club spokesman said: "Craig Levein has indicated that he will loan him (Tommy Wright) out but only after the FA Cup business is over.'' Wright, who has played at several age-groups for England, has been identified by Levein as one of the four youngsters knocking on the first-team door at the Walkers Stadium - but says there are not enough of his age-group coming through. In an attempt to rectify that situation, Levein says he will be having a look at some young trialists during the rest of the season. Bury teenager Colin Kazim-Richards has been training with City this week. "We realised we do not have an abundance of players pushing for first-team places in the 18-21 age-group," said Levein. "I think that is an important age band and we do not have that many of them. "We have seen Colin play a couple of times and now we are having a look at him in training. He's only 18, he hasn't played many games for Bury and he's not ready for the first team, but he could be one for the future. "There will be a few more like that because we need to boost the younger age-group. We have the four who have been around the first-team squad - Tommy Wright, Stephen Dawson, Alan Sheehan and Richard Stearman - but I would expect eight or nine. You need a strong group in that band who are hungry and desperate to play." http://www.thebluearmy.co.uk/details.asp?b...6269754|p|536|0
