      And more impressive again when you see that no side has conceded fewer goals than us across either division and only four sides (out of seventeen in total - one of these being us) have scored more in four games played*.

      I know goal difference will be improved when winning games but we look well balanced between attack and defence so far. TOBW has said it's more similar to first team - helping create that pathway - than before while still being attractive football.

      *Bristol City included because I doubt they scored six goals in their extra game played, Watford and Hull not included because it's very possible they scored their one extra from extra game played.

        The Academy team, beaten 7-1 at Wigan in their last outing, are at Colchester today, kick off 1.30.

          U18 | The #Bluebirds come back from being two goals down to earn a point in Maldon!

          We scored on 75th and 81st minute so not garbage time but that age group do seem to concede. A concern?

            While conceding ten in two games is obviously excessive, goals have always been easier to come by at Academy level, but I can’t really comment on this year’s team as, apart from a Youth Cup tie or two, I’ve not seen any under 18s football in eighteen months.

              A poor weekend for Cardiff City continued yesterday with the Women's team being beaten 4-0 by the jacks (they always beat us heavily in this fixture), but, hopefully, the Under 23s can lighten the mood by maintaining their fine start to the season in their game with Millwall today which is being played at Leckwith. Kick off is at 1 o clock and there is free entry for any fans who go along - the game will also be streamed on the club website;-

                Nice one will put it on in the background while working at home today.

                Only seen highlights this season so would be nice to see what a few of them are about.

                  1-0, Zimba again, lovely pass from Evans.

                    I like the look of zimba, a proper centre forward.

                    jai semenyo is really quick too

                      1-0 at half time, the only concern really is that it should be more.

                            Davies and Semenyo as the wingbacks now, should be good

                              centre backs comfortable to bring the ball out when it opens up which is great to see.
                              it means that the midfield have to close them down which gives more space for our forward players.
                              it is still getting the ball forward quickly, just a little bit more sophisticated than the hoof option.

                                Thought Connolly was very impressive
