Bryn Posted 2 April 2008 Posted 2 April 2008 Who's Robert Ambrusic? Disappointing that Worley isn't playing.
jano Posted 2 April 2008 Posted 2 April 2008 Who's Robert Ambrusic? Disappointing that Worley isn't playing. robert ambrusic is a goal keeper
davieG Posted 2 April 2008 Author Posted 2 April 2008 Who's Robert Ambrusic? Disappointing that Worley isn't playing. Perhaps he's on standby for the first team, weren't either Kisnorbo or McAuley carryying injuries
jano Posted 2 April 2008 Posted 2 April 2008 Perhaps he's on standby for the first team, weren't either Kisnorbo or McAuley carryying injuries yes your probably right i think they both got knocks and they dont want to risk worley getting injured to to make sure we have cover if need be
Webbo Posted 2 April 2008 Posted 2 April 2008 City: Carl Pentney, Joe Magunda, Ryan Beswick, Lee Cox, Scott Garner, Lathanial Rowe-Turner, Craig King, Radostin Kishishev, Ashley Chambers, Billy McKay, Robbie Burns.Subs: Sergio Hellings, Robert Ambrusic, Reneil Sappleton, Joe Cobb, Steven Howard. Is that the Steven Howard on the bench?
Tevez Posted 2 April 2008 Posted 2 April 2008 Worley has been giving a squad number (20) so he could be in with a shout?
Uncle Albert Posted 2 April 2008 Posted 2 April 2008 Is that the Steven Howard on the bench? Probably the younger better lookin version. Not as tall or wide.
Thracian Posted 2 April 2008 Posted 2 April 2008 Worley has been giving a squad number (20) so he could be in with a shout? I'd be very surprised for a while yet. He seemed to have much to learn when I saw him in the reserves. After all the inactivity last month and now seven games in a month you can see some people getting injured and the rest getting super fit at last, just as the season's ending. Good to see Joe Magunda back after long term injury. If Kishishev guides such an inexperienced team to victory it will be an achievement indeed.
Father Ted Posted 2 April 2008 Posted 2 April 2008 Who's Robert Ambrusic? Disappointing that Worley isn't playing. Worley may be called up to the first team?? Anymore info on this Robert Ambrusic?
davieG Posted 2 April 2008 Author Posted 2 April 2008 From Bradford OS Wednesday 2 April 2008 Pontin's Holidays League Central Bradford City 0 Leicester City 0 Kick Off: 7.00pm at the Coral Windows Stadium Latest score For once Bradford City had the luxury of fielding the most experienced side with TJ Moncur, Alex Rhodes, Scott Phelan and David Brown all in the starting line up, while the visitors only had one professional, Radostin Kishishev, who had featured in the Foxes' first team so far this season. City also had 18-year old Coventry City apprentice Callum Burgess on trial in central defence playing alongside Liam Smith. Leicester had the better of the opening period with Ashley Chambers shooting just wide in the 8th minute and he was unlucky again two minutes later forcing a finger-tip save from Ben Saynor. On the quarter hour Lee Cox broke through but his 20-yard effort went just wide. Luke O'Brien ran through the centre of the park on nineteen minutes but David Brown was unable to control the ball as he turned towards Carl Pentney's goal. In the 35th minute Moncur tried to put Medley through but the ball overshot its target slightly and the City striker was unable to catch it before Pentney raced out from the goal-line to gather. A minute later Luke Morgan's fine run down the right almost helped put City in front when his cross was met by David Brown who raced into the area but his rasping shot ended up just wide of the upright. The second half started with Osborne and Sharry replacing Moncur and Rhodes. 5 Scott Garner 6 Callum Burgess 6 Lathanial Rowe-Turner 7 Luke Morgan 7 Craig King 8 Scott Phelan 8 Radostin Kishishev 9 Luke Medley 9 Ashley Chambers 10 David Brown 10 Billy McKay 11 Alex Rhodes 11 Robbie Burns SUBSTITUTES SUBSTITUTES 12 Leon Osborne 12 Sergio Hellings 14 Luke Sharry 13 Robert Ambrusic 15 Adrain Bellamy 14 Reneil Sappleton 16 Louis Horne 15 Joe Cobb 17 Rory Carson 16 Steven Howard MATCH OFFICIALS: Referee: R L Metcalfe Assistant Referee: T Peart Assistant Referee: B Toner 4th Official: N Haycock
davieG Posted 2 April 2008 Author Posted 2 April 2008 Bradford City were in front two minutes after the restart when Browns cross from the right found Medley who coolly slid the ball under Pentney. Link
Daggers Posted 2 April 2008 Posted 2 April 2008 From Bradford OS That was so much better when it had OD'd on [bold]
Thracian Posted 2 April 2008 Posted 2 April 2008 Not surprised by that at all as I indicated earlier.
Scow Posted 2 April 2008 Posted 2 April 2008 Jeez, I bet Kish will feel old tonight. I bet Sergio feels a bit shit.

Ric Flair Posted 3 April 2008 Posted 3 April 2008 Be interesting to see whether Worley does get a chance before the end of the season, from the little i've seen of him, he looks like the sort of defender we have been missing for a while. I know our defence is solid and I wouldn't want to tweak it too much, but a defender who can pass and take the ball out of defence would be a welcome addition at some point. Long way for him to go yet, bit rough round the edges apparently.
