Played right wing, alright, but nothing special. Wouldn't, on the strength of that showing, be looking to him as a first teamer.

Matt.

Yes mike is Robs older brother. Son of Gerry and cousin of daniel who is at exeter. I used to play at youth level with mike from u9's through to u15 level. Always wanted him to sign for tqy but he said he never would before. We shall see

Is he a relation to the Nardiello we have in the youth squad?

I'd wondered if this would ever happen. I seem to recall that after his fairly major surgery Colin Lee told him to go away and get some game time before we would have a look at him. Maybe that offer still stood.

Rarely does a game go by without him hitting the net for Tivvy. O.k so that's at a pretty low level, but he was once a big deal before he got diagnosed with some back/pelvic misalignment which scuppered his career.

Given his previous career, he's definitely worth looking at to see if he's still got it. If he has, he could be a very cheap and effective solution to our forward-line problems.

No harm in trialling him with the ressies

According to his twitter ( http://x.com/#!/nards99" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ) he is turning out for our ressies against Argyle.

From what i can see he has dropped down the football pyramid somewhat and has most recently played for Tiverton. I think he plays up front and has previously been on trial for Argyle, but they turned him away.

Thoughts on this one, anyone?
