I think Ratcliffe and Sang are with the first team - City's side today is Cogman, then a back three of Bodenham, Denham and King, McWilliams and Waite are wing backs, Bowen and Patten in the middle of midfield and then Colwill and Evans either side of Davies.

I was impressed by McWillians when he came on last week - I didn't think Colwill was doing much for half an hour, but he's started playing now and there's been some lovely touches by Keiron Evans.

they've played some nice stuff always good to see the wing backs getting forward.
it's almost a 3-4-2-1 formation

If Ratcliffe is with the first team does that imply that Smithies isn't fit - or do we usually take a 3rd keeper in case one has a problem in the warm up?

3-1 a penalty for Colchester after some careless City defending.
-
Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
4-1, an own goal I think following more good work by Colwill.

Nice to watch a Cardiff City team pass the ball to each other.

That was very encouraging and enjoyable again. Everything we haven't be used to in the past few years with the first team (although that may be changing with Mick's Total Football!), and a few likely first team players emerging.
And a good win (the Colchester goalkeeper was a candidate for MOM).

Under 23's playing same system as first team. That's one for the pro column when deciding if MM should have his contract extended.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
I think the manager will be annoyed with thec2nd half display. Very sloppy, after an excellent 1st half.

Same system as far as numbers are concerned, but a world of difference between the methods used.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
No confirmation of it on Twitter yet, but there should be another live one o clock kick off game on the club website today when City Under 23s entertain Millwall. Lee Tomlin has posted a message saying he will be involved, but it will be interesting to see if Rubin Colwill and Isaak Davies are or will they retain their places in the squad for Luton?

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Bumped so if you've got nothing to do at 1pm, worth a watch. Previous couple of games have been enjoyable. Plus, will Tomlin feature or not?

Ratcliffe plays (so Smithies must be fit), no Colwill or Davies, Tomlin starts, we have a trialist at centre half and Taz Mayembe on the bench.

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Radcliffe starts so that means Smithies is fit and in squad tonight. Couple of youngsters clearly also travelled. Hope that doesnt mean Ojo and Ralls still out.
Great to have Tomlin back. Assume he will just do 45/60 mins.

What a superb goal - Patten.

Absolute screamer!

Re: The Bluebirds Academy and DVP thread...
Eight up on the hill and two behind the goal - biggest crowd of the season. Maybe, there's some segregation because the two behind the goal are from Sarf London?

No, I don't think they will either.
