The clip doesn't come up with 'free' in the corner of the screen and when I click on it I get the message 'Cardiff City TV - This video is not available in your region - Subscribe now'. If I press the subscribe now option it brings up the monthly or annual audio pass options. I bought the annual audio pass last week - but that is irrelevant to watching a brief video clip on the club site.
I’m getting the same message Jon, all other videos on there are fine, but I can’t watch the Ammanford highlights on there.

The clip has changed this morning to show 'free'. It now plays.

Yes, I was just about to post something on here myself - to use inane commentator speak, “I think the Ammanford lads will be disappointed by the penalties they took”.

Sounds like a cracker - a 6-4 victory.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Listened to snatches of the game last night, but Merthyr seemed to score every time I did! Another hat trick for Pearce, with the other goals coming from George, Twose and Barton. City led 2-1 and then 4-2 but were pulled back to 4-4 before a couple of our subs got the goals that won the game.

You scored 4 times last night Bob? Good on you mate, would you mind sharing the location of the venue? Asking for a friend.

Very good news.
Although no longer part of the Academy, even better news would be a contract extension for Dylan Lawlor!

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Perhaps I'm making too much of this because it's all about experience at the end of the day (and now it's end of the day for the experience) but that seems a little dispiriting. After some good results in pre-season, we've drawn with and lost to Cymru South opposition without scoring a goal. I suppose it shows the difference between friendlies and competition.
I went to a Cymru South game last week (Cardiff Dracs v Ammanford) and it wasn't very good. Swansea U21s beat Afan Lido 5-0 tonight and the latter are at the same level.
Hopefully our lads can bounce back from this (to put it politely).
