News round-up

Last updated : 04 August 2002 By Matthew Gabb
Josh Low's trial at Oldham has started well, Low scored in Oldham's 1-2 defeat to Newcastle on Friday night.

Martyn Margetson has finally signed a contract with City. The former Wales U-21 international was first-choice at the McAlpine Stadium last season and will I'm sure provide stern opposition to Alexander for the City goalkeeper's shirt. Welcome to Ninian Park.

On the field City reserves won 1-0 at Weymouth on Friday night, while the first team scored two cracking goals in a 2-1 win over Bolton at Ninian Park on Saturday.

Only one more pre-season game to come, the reserves travelling to Bath City on Monday night, then it's the real thing at Boundary Park on Saturday. Oldham away. City fans have been allocated 4600 spaces, all pay on the gate, and it seems that the Bluebirds will have a large following to watch them open the 2002/2003 season.

6 days and counting...
