Still think the fact that Colwill is the height he is had a lot to do with his first team breakthrough. Would Spence have made it into the first team squad here - it’s easy to be cynical and say no, but Keiron Evans (who I think may be smaller than Spence) has done so.

Really disappointing that about Evans and the under 21s, I suppose it has something to do with Spence being available again.

Yeah I agree on the height. As well as any physical advantage it makes it easier to stand out.

Keenan Patten has been withdrawn from the Wales U21s, I'm guessing he's injured

Three City players in the Wales Under 19 squad for a mini tournament in Norway this week;-

Two of those, Jones and Davies, would I'm sure have been involved with our Under 23s tomorrow - looks like it's going to be a long way short of our strongest team, but it'll be a good test for those left behind.

The Under 23s travel to Bristol City for a top of the table clash with the wurzels tomorrow, kick off at 1 o clock and it looks like we should be able to watch a stream of the game;-

An encouraging seven City players included in the Wales Under 16s squad for the upcoming Victory Shield tournament.

Didn't realise England no longer participated in the victory shield, since 2015 no less.

Good start for the u18s at Bristol City this morning in the PDL Cup

0 - 2 up after 11 minutes

(James Crole on 5 minutes with a headed goal from a corner, and Cian Ashford with a penalty that he won on 11 minutes).

[City123]

5-0 now after 76 minutes, a second half hat trick for Morgan Wigley

[jon1959]

Finished 0 - 5.

Lovely!

Well that’s the derby won

Ashford has played the last two matches for the Under 18s, hope this doesn’t mean that he won’t be in the Under 23s side for Tuesday’s match with Charlton.

[Undercoverinwurzelland]

Great result.

[the other bob wilson]

The Under 23s are back in action tomorrow against Charlton, the match is at Cardiff City Stadium with kick off a bit later than usual at two o clock;-

Wonder if MM and TC will be there today as they have the last few games.

Trialist playing.

I think it's 1pm (that's 3 for me) kick off.

Earlier posts by the club said 2 but now staying 1

Nice to see Jack Leahy getting a start.

I think he looks a super player.

Not sure how I feel about that. All 3 deserve their chance, but right now?
Should have been weeks ago, rather than after 6 dreadful defeats and with a toxic relationship between the manager and the fans.

Is Morrison in charge of u23s today?
