Posted: Wed Feb 20, 2013 1:47 pmI am assuming you are referring to Hideki Ishige.
The J-League starts next weekend so if he hasn't been by now, he isn't coming.
As far as I am aware, it was not a trial as such. He was just training with us as part of his education. He has only played 13 first team games in the J-League and League Cup and if you have ever seen the J-League, you will know that he is not even nearly ready for us yet. And that is leaving work permit issues aside.
Shizuoka is a relatively good area for producing footballers in Japan and if we can forge ties with the two clubs in that area, we might find a player every now and then. It is good that we have started to make friends.

I watched an under 15's game last season and two of the players were from Korea and Japan, very good on the ball. Not sure what happened but one was a ringer at Reddish Vulcans for spell

I think he scored a pen if I'm not mistaken.
