He is also playing for Pen-y-bont now, very injury-prone during his spell with us.

It was a shame because he definitely had a lot of ability.

Some proper and also shocking football news - City announce a game! 19th July at Afan Lido in the Nathaniel MG Cup. We were drawn at home but it's been switched.

A couple more fixtures announced

Tuesday 16th July - Barry Town United (A) - Kick-Off: 7:45pm

Glad they're playing Weston again - easy for me to get to.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

Do we yet know which of the 2nd year U18's have been retained and which have been released?

The only news I've seen is that Louie Phillips has (presumably) been released as he was on trial with Charlton

Thanks for that, very interesting. Some promising players in there.

I wonder what the plan is. It's a big first team squad and there's now a big u-21 squad too. There must be confidence that plenty of decent loan deals can be set up. Even in that group that have just signed contracts there are two right backs, two left backs and two keepers. We'll see.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

Great to see so many being signed up, let’s hope they continue to get the first team chances that some of them have managed so far - I feel this is a strong year for our youth players and there should be a first team regular or two among them if the club and manager keep their nerve.
