I expected this to be our u21s plus the 3 amigos (ALF, Macheda, Dikgacoi) against a full strength Execter team.
However, Exeter have just published the Cardiff squad list that the club have sent them - and it is basically the first team squad (although Healey, O'Sullivan and Wharton have squad numbers - but Tutonda and James don't!).

The local press have warned Exeter fans that they might miss out on seeing Macheda. Seriously.

Byrne baby Byrne
He played a few matches for our Under 21s at the back end of last season - Oliver Byrne, was at Man United.
OH YEAH, LIKE BOB WOULD KNOW
As far as I know most of that team sheet is just created from a random name generator, the same way OGS used to pick his starting 11.
Cardiff City have apologised to Exeter City over the lack of first-team players involved in tonight's preseason friendly.
The game - the Grecians' last preseason friendly - was billed as being against a Cardiff City XI, meaning that, whilst it would not have been the Bluebirds' full-strength side, a few first-team players would still take part.
However, the squad that has traveled from South Wales is primarily an under-21 squad, which is understood to have disappointed members of the Grecians hierarchy.
Cardiff have now apologised for the relatively weak squad in a statement published on City's website.
It read: "I'm afraid it will be our U21 side who travel tonight for which Cardiff City can only apologise as we made the arrangements for it to be a first team fixture in good faith.
"We have a number of first team players like Adam Le Fondre and Federico Macheda who we had expected to play in the game but who have been excluded from the squad."

No explanation why ALF and Macheda not in squad.
Let's hope that they're both having medicals somewhere,let's also hope that they're not to stringent
I remember Paul mentioning the ex manure thing in one of his reports now.
If he's come from Man Yew he must be IMMENSE!
What like Macheda

Glad they're given no more game time over yoofs
1-0 down.
Nice one Paul ,where would we without you, bet W.O.L. didn't know that one
Lots of Welsh interest playing for Exeter. Troy Brown, Lloyd James and Jake Taylor in the starting line up. Plus u17 internationals Max Smallcombe and Ethan Ampadu on the bench.
Apparently they are still in the bus station waiting for the express coach to transport them down, I think Exeter should thank us for not exposing them to their knowledgeable younger fans
Might need some firelighters.
2-0 now.
3-0
Can you sacrifice any?
Sounds like poor form from City in terms of what they promised Exeter.
