Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
It'll be Ammanford at home in the first round of the Nathaniel MG (no relation to Perry) Cup. To be played sometime over July 18th-20th.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Ammanford now away on the 19th.
Four players sign professional terms. Four new signings on one day! What more do people want?

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Just been announced that it will be a predominantly under 21 side that takes on Yeovil in the upcoming game.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Another potential U21 signing according to WOL - former Villa midfielder Kyrie Pierre.

I hope it’s a loan - we haven’t got to the stage yet where he sees Barry as the bigger club have we?

Don't worry - he was released at the end of the season so was a free agent.

I was thinking of Jac Thomas the left back - he’ll probably be a regular in the under 21 team in the new season.

That's encouraging. You said Philogene was 'gash' and he went for £20m a couple of years later so we could be in the money here.

I also said Rhian Brewster was shite when he went for £23m to Sheff Utd and he was.
I still don't get the Philogene love in.

Never mind Brewster and Philogene, just concentrate on slagging our own players off. We'll have that debt cleared in no time.

My laptop battery isn't powerful enough to go through them all. But the hype some get is beyond me. Get relegated and people on here want the kids to play in a mans league. Most of them I wouldn't pay in washers.
£20m for someone that scored 2 Premier League goals and a 1 in 5 merchant in the Championship. No wonder clubs go to the wall.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Just watched the highlights of under 21s team's gsme at Barry on Saturday and, although I'm useless at recognising our players, our number looked a lot like Daland to me.
The Barry fans were not happy with the penalty award because Pearce looked well offside before he received the pass which put him in on goal to be fouled by their keeper, but a second look at it shows that he was inside his own half when the ball was played through to him.

It's definitely not Daland. I presume you mean number 5.?

Yes, number 5. I swear if the whole of our first team squad walked past me on the pavement outside my house, I wouldn't recognise half of them.
