Next match: Pre-season. Saturday, July 11th | FC Midtjylland (H) @ Cardiff City Stadium, 12:30pm -
All pre-season fixtures
I think you’re right. And from the soundbites coming from the club over the past six months or so, we’ll continue to force the pathway to the first team from the U21s regardless of which league we’re in.
I was looking last week at the youngest ever team we’ve put out in the league, which appears to be this one, versus Arsenal in 1961. Average age of 23.0. I don’t think we'll be far off that soon the way things are going.
This is the match sheet of the First Division (- 91/92) game between Cardiff City and Arsenal FC on 28/10/1961.
We’re on track to becoming an U23s team that’s trying to get back into the championship and if that’s profitable for Tan and Dalman and the coaching staff are happy picking up their pay-checks, then we may be stuck here for some time. Especially if we sell at least one of our top players every season.
First game of the season - average age 22. Lowest ever average age of a team we've put out in the league. Now I'm nervous.
