Interesting.
New boy Kaba on the bench too.

He scored the first in the u-15 final v Burton last season. He must like playing at the CCS.
Here are the highlights of Saturday's game.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Has the Barnsley keeper had a save to make yet? Some nice build up play at times and it was a good header by Kaba against the post, but the finishing is poor - Twose and Perrett should have scored and the first named has just had a goal disallowed because hir poor technique saw him knock the ball on to his hand when he was completely unmarked three yards from goal.
Good ball by Nyakhuwa sets up Twose who this time finishes well to put City ahead.

Very odd, they’ve brought their red shorts and socks!

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Finished 1-0, City got well on top in the second half, but missed so many chances.

They did. I know it is only u21 level but I found it refreshing to see a CCFC side playing with such a high energy level. Hopefully , some of the first team and the manager watched it and learnt how to do the same (I have my doubts though)

Think the manager might have been there to watch some of the game at least, not so sure about the others you mention!

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Well done to City's under 10s. Bit depressing to see the shirt pulling and grabbing of opponents you get these days even in this age group - I can only assume that their coaches have no problems with it..

Good win for the u18s today too - 7-0 v QPR. Talbot, Edwards, Sykes, Tobin, Hilaire-Clarke and 2 for Barton.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Another 2-1 defeat today.
-
Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
And another 2-0 defeat today at Hull. Two more games to go on the 2nd and 6th (both at home in the athletics stadium and CCS respectively).
-
Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Better news from the u18s - 2-1 victory at Millwall today.
-
Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
The under 21s play their penultimate game of the season today at Leckwith,, kick off 2 o clock, against Watford. I assume there'll be the normal streamed coverage.

cardiff 1-0 brilliant header from free kick by cooke

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Good by City so far with the highlight being a lovely finish by Twose after Conte and Beecher combined well down the left. Spiers very good on the opposite flank as well and Gbadehan is having what I’d say is his best game in City colours so far.
-
Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
3-0 another brilliant goal by Josh Beecher
-
Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
3-0, fine finish by Beecher from a fantastic (and I mean fantastic) pass by Giles.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Commentators saying that the first team and under 18s are in action tomorrow and proceed to tell us how well the latter have done with what looks like a third place finish. Well done to the Academy kids for that, but there was no mention of the senior team’s likely twenty fourth place finish though :hehe:
-
Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
A tremendous shot from 30 yards late on denies City a clean sheet, but they’re well worth their 3-1 win.

Yes, four good goals, and actually, the players were passing to a man in blue.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
No Lawlor, Kpakio, Mafico, Perrett, George, Nyakuhwa, Simic by my count?
No chance they're all headed to Norwich, but unlikely they're all injured too

Pretty sure George is and I’d be shocked if Kpakio is involved after so long out, but I wouldn’t be surprised if three or four of those were in the match day squad.

Knowing our Pravda trained media team, the U18s might be in a division of 3 teams.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Found this earlier. Wonder what age group he's with. I can't imagine that Nike give out "long-term deal"s to kids that often. Anyone heard of him before?
