Town trialist Ibrahima Sonko says this afternoon’s 1-1 reserves draw with Colchester at Playford Road went well and he’s waiting to see what happens next. The 30-year-old former Reading and Stoke centre-half, who TWTD was first to reveal was on trial earlier today, played the full 90 minutes of the behind-closed-doors friendly.

Sonko tweeted: “Game went well. Now I do not know what's going to happen, we can just wait and cross fingers that everyone [is] happy like I am.”

A free agent having been released by Stoke at the end of 2010/11, the Senegalese international spent pre-season with his old club Reading but was unable to agree a deal with the Royals.

Former Blues keeper Richard Wright was also in the reserves side facing the U's this afternoon.

Topps added 15:40 - Aug 24 My mate is a Stoke season ticket holder and he says Stoke fans are in firm agreement that he is one of the worst CB's they have ever had. They call him Agent Sonko, in as much that every club they sent him to he took down. http://oatcakefanzine.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=Potters&action=display&threa

Premiertown added 18:56 - Aug 24 Saw him a few years ago play for Brentford and he was languid, fast but late and jumped like a salmon, sometimes near the ball too!
