    Great loan move for Tom Davies to SPL club Kilmarnock for the season.

    Shows the value of loans to the Welsh Prem, doubtbthey'd have gone for him with no senior experience

        Another good crop, 7 international among them. It could have been 9 if Benjamin and Biancheri hadn't been poached. The year above has 11 internationals (it would have been 12 with Crew)

          The 21’s had a friendly yesterday away to an impressive Wolves side
          They had a battling 1-3 loss unfortunately
          Last year’s captain Xavier Benjamin was missing as he’s training with the firsts and several others are still in the treatment room
          Cameron Antwi and Raheem Conte among them 🤕
          The first year scholars had a friendly away to Bournemouth and came away with a six one win
          It was 1-3 half time and to be honest we squandered so many chances in the final third
          The game finished 1-6 to the young Bluebirds but it should have been fifteen.
          That was how dominant and impressive this new Cardiff crop played
          An exciting season lies ahead for these boys especially when they start gelling as a team
          A final friendly against Exeter at Leckwith on Saturday before the season starts proper ⚽️👍

              The goals from the Bournemouth game are on the club website now - must say it looked like we cashed in on the fact that Bournemouth were crap at playing out from the back.

                Nothing got past Alyas all game
                He was a rock in defence
                The Trialist keeper was a bit suspect but our defensive unit coped admirably
                Dak and Ronan were there constantly sweeping up and Troy Perrett was the fulcrum in midfield
                To be honest Adrian the goals came from all over the pitch
                Dan Ola got another and so did Cole and Tanatswa borrowed from the second years
                There were no absolute stand outs as the whole team played as they should
                Unfortunately they squandered about a dozen chances but if it wasn’t for their keeper we’d have had a cricket score
                That doesn’t reflect on how bad a side Bournemouth were
                On the contrary
                We were excellent
                One o’clock 🕐 kick off v Exeter on Saturday at Leckwith before the season kicks off proper the following week against Brum I think 👍

                  Good news and thank you. I look forward to your match report later ;-)

                  I've caught up with the highlights and it looks like it should be a good team this year.

                  I also watched the U21's, Colwill jnr and Ashford appear to be the next cabs of the ranks although Wigley and Caleb Hughes also have the X factor. I do hope they thin the 1st team squad a bit to get these lads a little nearer to the action. 30 senior Pros is ridiculous

                    Some catastrophic defending from Bournemouth. You can hear someone, presumably one of their coaches, telling them to "have a bit of f***ing self respect" near the end!
                    Credit to our lads for closing down quickly to cause the mistakes and for some clinical finishing.

                        Thanks. Goals from your two top tips, neither of whom have yet been capped by Wales at any level. Enjoy Leeds
