Shane O’Connor is set to play the second game of his trial spell with Crawley Town when the League Two new boys take on Crystal Palace in a friendly at the Broadfield Stadium this evening. TWTD revealed that the Republic of Ireland U21 international was on trial with Crawley yesterday.
O’Connor impressed in his first game for the Red Devils, scoring one of the goals in an 8-1 thrashing of East Grinstead Town on Tuesday.
The 21-year-old has another year left on his Blues contract but appears to be out of manager Paul Jewell's future plans.
