Quite a few 'first teamers' playing: Colwill, Davies, Morrison, Sang and Philogene.

Is that team legal? I know when it used to be under 23s football, you were allowed three outfield players and a keeper to be over age, but they’re taking the piss there.

Using the u21s to give the first team squad some match time, certainly.

The ages of the starting 11: Luthra (20), Campbell (21), Bagan (21), Morrison (31), Nelson (29), Sang (23), Philogene (20), Colwill (20), Crole (18), Davies (21), Tanner (20).

Think all of this talk of embargoes makes it even more likely we’ll sign Morison on a contract - always assuming we can.

I don't know how it works. Maybe there's a loophole to be exploited? Agree we'll likely sign him now.

I do find it kind of hilarious seeing a 31 year old in an U21 match though. Legal or not!

Think they need to be twenty one or under at the start of the season, so that team is okay if the same rules apply.

1-0 at half time.

Colwill with a Whitts like free kick puts us one up. Bit like watching the first team on Saturday until then, plenty of chances, but no finish.

Clever free kick. Everyone was expecting the cross, including the keeper.

I think the embargo has been the reason why we have been seeing so much of him in recent weeks. As an out of contract player we will be able to sign him.

We can see how much we have been missing Morrison at corners and free kicks. Sunderland can't handle him.
Not so sure about him in defence though. Still looks sluggish.

He can barely move

Only place for him I guess seeing as there's no reserves anymore

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

2-0, Crole cages in on a poor back pass.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

Colwill seemed to be playing far more centrally than he does for the firsts.

Maybe Darren Purse thinks it’s his brother?

Looking at the starting line up,I think he had to play there.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

Finished 2-0, think City have a good chance of qualifying now.
