Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
The Under 18 game with scheduled for today against Sheffield Wednesday has been postponed, but the under 21s are home to Wolves this afternoon. Kick off is at two o clock, so I presume it's being playing at Leckwith, but it could be at Cardiff City Stadium I suppose - there's no news feature yet on the club website about the match, so it's not clear yet whether it will be streamed or not.

Isn’t there a behind closed doors “in-house match” at the stadium?

One other thing, the under 18s have been drawn away to Grimsby or Crewe in the Third Round of the Youth Cup.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Biancheri’s on the bench today - Morrison and Nelson in the starting lineup, as Isaak.Davies.

Interesting mix of young and old.
Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Wolves 1-0 up coming up to half time. City having plenty of possession, but not doing a great deal with it.
Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Biancheri on for Davies, just forced a good save
Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
great to hear Davies has been on the pitch

He had one shot from twenty odd yards that brought a fine save out of a good Wolves keeper and looked more livelier than I would have expected him to be and his replacement Biancheri was also foiled by the goalie.
I’ve found Wolves’ first team to be a dull watch in the last season or two and their under 21s were the same - they scored early on and then seemed happy enough to sit back, despite looking slightly the better team.
Apart from Nelson and Morrison (who went off with about a quarter of an hour left), it was a young City team that all had their moments individually, but there was little sign of a goal from them.

The Wolves match report boasted that their team had an average age of 3 years less than Cardiff! They had already said that Morrison and Nelson were playing - so i would guess there wasn't a lot of difference otherwise?

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Tonight's Youth Cup tie at Crewe is going ahead it would appear - Youth Cup matches are normally streamed, but not this time it would seem.

Also, the Under 21 game against Sunderland which was called off on Friday has been rearranged for tomorrow, kick off 11 o click at Leckwith - hopefully, this one will be streamed and you'd think Isaak Davies will be involved.
