The U23’s have got a game this afternoon
One o’clock 🕐 kick off at Leckwith Stadium
It’s a friendly so isn’t part of the normal schedule
They’re playing “Academy 23” 👍

Interesting. Looks like they're part of Beaconsfield Town. https://mobile.twitter.com/Academy23...59873702289408

1-0 to us at HT

3-1 FT

[City123]

Wales U17s currently playing away against France, a strong Cardiff City contingent of Luke Armstrong, Luey Giles, Gabriele Biancheri and Troy Perrett join City old boy Charlie Crew in the starting lineup

Thanks, think the penalty looked a bit dubious.

Penalty for me, the defender didn't touch the ball, his problem, shit defending. I liked the look of the Jacks right back-no 2.

Rhys Thomas plays at Man City, thought the lad Leeds poached looked decent too

Under 21s in action at one o clock - there should be a stream of it for anyone who wants to watch.

Don't understand why players like Campbell and Denham (if he's fit) are not playing the odd game for Darren Purse's team and you would have thought Ebou Adams would have had some game time with them by now, same with Etete.

Nothing about this club makes any sense any more!

Not sure about Campbell but the others are injured/ in recovery

But we’ve been hearing how well Adams has been doing for weeks.

After an awful start, City have settled now and are one up thanks to Tom Davies’ finish to James Crole’s good near post cross. Lovely move just now and Isaac Jefferies should have made it two.

Very fussy ref I’m afraid.

[the other bob wilson]

1-0 half time. Decent game so far, City have had a few narrow escapes (shot against the post, good chance missed early on), but it’s been as good a performance as I have seen from them so far this season up to now.

presumably reading are a strong side at this level, as they always seem to have a good conveyor belt of talent

[LA Bluebird]

Men against boys so far second half, not sure how experienced this Reading side are but look far more physical and City struggling to get out of their own half

They’ve been a Category One team for a good few years, but they must have reverted to Category Two this season because of their financial problems. It’s the first time we’ve been in the same league as them for a decade and more. They beat us1-0 at home earlier in the season and have won four and lost one so far - they’re also completely on top in the second half and an equaliser has to be on the cards.

[the other bob wilson]

Somehow, we’re 2-0 up - very good goal on the break though with fine, unselfish work by sub Morgan Wigley to set up Jack Leahy.

[LA Bluebird]

Brilliant counter attack goal, Crole looks like a useful player every time I watch the u21’s and a rare moment of quality in this half from Wigley to stay calm and set up an easy finish.

Not sure if it’s just the way we’ve been forced to setup due to Reading being on top, but doesn’t look anything like the style the first team are being asked to play. More Warnock than Morison.

[LA Bluebird]

And there goes the stream…

Cool heads by both of them. Lovely through ball from Crole too.

[Rontomuk]

finished 2-1

[Undercoverinwurzelland]

Finished 2-1. Good result

[the other bob wilson]

The stream never came back, but City won 2-1 with Reading having a player sent off late on.
