Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

Should come up against Fagan-Walcott on Saturday week.

Eli King got 90 minutes in for Ross County at Livingston last night in a 2-2 draw. A 3,696 crowd, in contrast to the 58,850 that were at Celtic Park for his league debut on Saturday. Not sure how he played last night but it's interesting to see that the BBC report of Saturday's game gave him man of the match.

He impressed at Morecambe and seems to have started well at Ross. Hope he gets his chance next season.

Derek Adams was his manager at Morecambe and has now taken him to Ross County, saying he's an excellent player.

Apparently Joel Colwill is set to stay at the club despite loan interest

Surely better off loaning him out than keeping him for the u21s? He needs senior football

Hard to draw any conclusions without more details.

Bulut said in December that he wanted him, and others, to go out on loan.

Like I said, no point in drawing any conclusions but it's interesting that the first three players Bulut names in that December article as needing loan spells, Joel Colwill, Ashford and Antwi, are all still here (as far as I'm aware).

They’re likely to be playing their football in a losing team as well, because the under 21 team, which was t doing well anyway, have lost a lot of players through loans in the last month. I suppose one interpretation might be that the word has come down from above that Colwill, Ashford and Antwi must play some Championship football especially if, as it probably will, the season turns into one of mid table mediocrity.

And Ryan Kavanagh to Truro.
There's going to be no-one left!

I'm sure there'll be plenty of A.Trialists to take their place soon. That time of year when we start looking at players other clubs are releasing, football's equivalent of walking along a beach with a metal detector. Definitely worth a try though, especially as they won't be blocking our own youngsters from getting games this time round.

Was wondering what had happened to him.

Is there an u21 game against Bristol City today?

This appeared on the club website earlier this morning but talks about a Monday 1.00 pm kick off. I'm pretty sure Monday was yesterday.
