The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

0-0 at half time, City the better team, but little to show for it by way of chances - Antwi forced the keeper into a good save, Zimba lacked conviction in a one on one with the keeper and Pritchard had a shot cleared off the line which then bounced off the crossbar. Charlton had the ball in the net, but it was disallowed for offside - looked a close call mind.

Zimba will be having nightmares on that one on one with the keeper 🫣
As I’m typing Charlton score 😕⚽️

1-0 to Charlton, hopeless second half by City - Charlton have stepped it up and we have no answer.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

Charlton’s no15 should have scored first
He fired over the bar from four yards out 🫣
Surely a header would have been the better option?

That was a mad final few minutes.

0 - 2 (but very nearly 1 - 1)

Finished 2-0 - yet another boring afternoon in this boring season spent watching boring Cardiff City making the scoring of a goal look impossible. Good to see Cian Ashford back and providing the odd touch of class amongst all of the humdrum stuff. Ashford’s shot against the post in added time was City’s best moment, Crole somehow failed to put away the rebound and then Charlton broke away and made the game safe within another ten seconds.

Hopefully Ashford can stay fit now, still a teenager isn't he and was highly rated

Have lost interest lately. Can only take so much malaise. Crole back from his loan or just allowed to nip back as and when?

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

I only seen a bit but Zimba seems to chase with such little conviction, almost like a token gesture.

He’s 18 so I guess we can offer him any kind of contract we want.

Ah yes, that's a better position to be in.

Which he's under no obligation to sign.

Obviously, no one is under an obligation to sign.

I assume the comment was in regards to the lad who signed for United who we couldn’t sign on a professional contract until the same time United could sign him despite him being in out academy for so many years.
