Trialists Named

The two unnamed trialists who featured in the Threave Rovers match on Monday night have been named in today's Greenock Telegraph as Chris Smith (pictured, he is the taller of the two players in the centre, the player he is embracing is Rangers prodigy John Fleck) and Lee Nicoll.

There were rumours that the young left sided centre-half was called Graham/Junior Smith. Some research on the internet turned up a Rangers Under-21 player called Chris Smith and Steven McArthur has confirmed that this is, in fact, the trialist's name.

Name: Chris Smith
Age: 19 (31.08.1988)
Position: Centre-Half
Nationality: Scottish
Height: ?' ?"
Former Club: Rangers

After a few searches I can't find anything what-so-ever on a footballer called Lee Nicoll.

Mate Lee Nichol (note incorrect spelling) was released by Falkirk at the end of last season.
