My blog piece on yesterday's game.

I cannot believe that the PM couldn't be bothered to show up for the game. She's lost my vote. (She never had my vote)
How did Jack Bodenham do by the way? I've seen his name on Wales youth team lists for what seems like ages. Think this may have been his DVP debut yesterday perhaps. Also Wootton is a name I know nothing about.
Regarding Wootton, I'm much the same as you - I must have seen him play before, but not knowlngly so.
I think you are right about Bodenham, I'm not aware of him having played for the Development team before - he's only broken into the Under 18s this season. He came on for Jordan Blaise early on and he and Connor Young were a very inexperienced centreback pairing for this level, but they both did well - one of them may have let their man go for the equaliser because the scorer was in a lot of space, but overall, they coped well.
Great that Bodenham and Young are being given a chance above their age grade at least and let's hope can step up ahead of time. And hopefully the later can emulate his old man.
Found this on Wootton on the acdemy website...
Laurence Wootton
Midfielder
Laurence is another new face for the young Bluebirds, having joined from Stoke City this summer. The young midfielder, known for his creativity, will be looking to cement his place in the U18 starting eleven ahead of the coming campaign.
Heavy defeat for the DVP team today at Palace. Sullay Kaikai gave the first team problems at Brentford so I'm not surprised he was too good for our youngsters. A report off the Palace site here, it gives our team at the end of it.

Given the experience (or lack of it!) in our team, the result is hardly surprising if the likes of Kaikai were typical of their team. Interesting to see that Weymans was in our team. Haven't heard about him for a while so I assumed that he was part of the recent cull. Also was that Theo Wharton in our line up? Last heard that he was on trial at Coventry.
