0-0 at half time for the under 21s.

Nice to see the under 18s win after City’s nightmare weekend.

u21s got thumped in the 2nd half.

Bournemouth 4 - 0 Cardiff.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...

You're right about Debono Loramski, don't think he's looked out of place at all in the under 21 matches he's played.

I made him sound about 12 in my post but even though he's been involved with Wales u-19s and has played for our u-21s too he's been mainly playing u-18s this season so last Friday would've been a big test for him and he came through it well. When I saw he'd scored today I assumed it was a header from a corner but it turned out to be a 25 yard shot according to the report jon1959 posted, I'll put the highlights of the game on here when they're available.

Cody Twose, Dakarai Mafico, Dylan Lawlor, Luey Giles, Luke Armstrong and Troy Perrett all in the Wales u19 squad, alongside a few of our former players.

Strange, I mentioned in my Luton reaction piece that it was the first time in the blog's fifteen and a half years that I could remember the under 18s, under 21s and senior team all playing on the same day and now they're doing it again today. The under 18s kick off at Watford at 1.00 pm and the under 21's start at Leckwith against Colchester at 2 - wonder if it will be streamed?

Aston Villa are one of several Premier League clubs that are tracking the development of 18-year old Cardiff City midfielder Troy Perrett.

Under 18s beaten 2-1 at Watford, while the under21s continue to undo much of the good work of the first half of the season, this time they drew 1-1 with bottom of the table Colchester - Gbadenan the scorer.

He's got a pro contract, so we're not in the same position as Crew, Biancheri etc. Unless he's out of contract, of course...

Sadly no, he’s never going to be another Gabbs. I watched the stream of the first half today and, as always, thanks to City for putting it on, especially when they were also doing one for the first team game. Got to say though that the commentary was a bit like reading the club programme as the actual performance of the City players on view bore little resemblance to what was being said about them on the stream. In reality, it was poor fare between two poor teams with the commentary making no allowance for the huge difference in results and quality of play from the under 21s pre and post the mid season break.
