| On
the opening of the new 500-seater
cantilever stand at Butlin Road,
Rugby United narrowly lost out
to a youthful Aston Villa XI.
Justin
Marsden latched
onto Aaron
Shanahan's pin-point
pass to slot home confidently
5 minutes into the second half
on a scorching day when England
International Darius Vassell
and Villa midfielder Lee Hendrie
officially opened the stand.
However,
three sloppy goals - two from
England Under 21 Stefan Moore
and one from first teamer Stephen
Cooke condemned Valley to their
only pre-season defeat.
