Named: these are all the trialists with Hereford at Bromsgrove

Jamie Taylor at Edgar Street

Hereford named a number of trialists again in Saturday's 1-0 defeat at Bromsgrove Sporting.

They included Leon Machisa and Hereford-born Jamie Taylor again, but Connor Stanley was a fresh face.

Connor Stanley is a 21-year-old winger whose last club was Bolton Wanderers.

He joined the Manchester United academy in August 2018 from Birmingham City and in February 2020 he was included in the side's Europa League squad.

He had a spell on loan at Atlanta United 2, who play in the second tier of the US soccer pyramid. He then joined Bolton's B team after his United contract expired in 2022,g going on loan to Bamber Bridge twice and FC United of Manchester.

Bamber Bridge, who finished 3rd in the Northern Premier League at step three, were Aaron Skinner's last club when he joined the Bulls this summer.

Anuerin Livermore also played again. He's another face to have already featured this pre-season. He made his Football League debut for Newport County in September 2021 but was released at the end of the season.

In February 2023, he signed for Hereford under then-manager Josh Gowling but only made one appearance.

Jamie Taylor at Nuneaton

Hereford-born midfielder Jamie Taylor also played again.

He's featured for Hereford in the previous three pre-season friendlies. He was at Crystal Palace but was released and was most recently at Tonbridge Angels in the National League South.

It's understood he had played for a previous Hereford youth set-up before moving on.

Another of the trialists was named on the teamsheet as Leon Machisa, who also played on Tuesday.

He's a 19-year-old defender who can play centre-back and at right-back. He's currently a free agent having left West Bromwich Albion in June 2022 and said in May he was looking "to get an opportunity".

Goalkeeper Shay Sterry, who's just 16 years old, was on the bench. His home club is Presteigne St Andrews and played between the sticks for Hereford at Pegasus.

Bogdan Marian, centre, at Nuneaton

Finally, Bogdan Marian is a striker/wide midfielder who has been on loan at step three's Rushden and Diamonds from Sky Bet Championship side Watford. He played at Nuneaton on Tuesday.

The Romanian-born teenager joined the Hornets as a goalkeeper at the age of eight but switched positions ahead of the 2021/22 season.

He spent the first part of last season on loan at Spartan South Midlands League Premier Division outfit Tring Athletic, scoring 21 goals for a combination of youth and senior teams across all competitions. He then made the step up to the Northern Premier League.
