FT: CARDIFF CITY 2 - 0 NEWPORT COUNTY.

[Rjk]

Probably our starting XI for the Barnsley game but disappointing how quickly Cardiff City youth drops to the bench when experienced players fit again.

Bagan in there, and the others will hopefully get their chances too, then it's upto them to take them

[jon1959]

Joe Day looks a good keeper!

[PontBlue]

Who benefits from trialists not being referred to by their name. It ridiculous when the commentators cannot legally name them.

[Rjk]

any subs yet? or has nobody told mick they're allowed before 75 minutes

[Carl Dale's Mole]

61 - Six City changes!

Vaulks, Wintle, Harris, McGuinness, Bowen & Tomlin replace Bagan, Bacuna, Pack, Ng, Morrison & Ralls.

[Carl Dale's Mole]

Joe Day with another great save stopping Vaulks.

[dembethewarrior]

Bowen at RB again then.

old mick square holes is off again.

[Carl Dale's Mole]

Giles has moved to left wing back after the changes. First time seeing him there and he immediately looks a threat going forward.

[Carl Dale's Mole]

Bowen at RB again then.

old mick square holes is off again.

Must be so frustrating as a player. Waiting so long for your chance and it comes in the form of a completely different position.

Micky square holes sounds like a Simpsons mafia guy

[life on mars]

We are going up as champions

[Carl Dale's Mole]

2-0 Harris.

Giles the creator once again.

[Carl Dale's Mole]

Close the Joe Bennett thread. We're fine at left back.

[Carl Dale's Mole]

FT 2-0 City.

Must be so frustrating as a player. Waiting so long for your chance and it comes in the form of a completely different position.

I’m sure as a young lad he’ll just be happy to get some minutes on the pitch with the first team. Doesn’t give the ball away to be fair. Not the worst player to be playing RWB when we are 2up and keeping possession.

Disheartening.

I know it's minutes on the pitch /experience etc but it's a waste of time imo.

The lad potentially has a good career ahead of him, why should one manager who decides to shove him in at WB have such an influence on his career. Joke.

Not seen the Simpson in years

[BLUETIT]

How many managed to get tickets and get over the assault coarse into the ground ?

It was rough but I made it.

So what's the answer ?

Unfortunately he has 5 senior midfielders in front of him in his own position at the moment, he’s going to have to bide his time.

I’m sure he’d rather be getting a feel for senior first team football, albeit slightly out of position, than on loan with Barry again, or no minutes at all like some of the others in his age group.

He seems to have elevated himself from the under 23s to first team fringes this summer and that shows he’s in the managers thoughts.

[Hilts]

I bet Bowen is delighted to have had some game time with the 1st team. Sang didnt do too bad at RWB.

[dembethewarrior]

So what's the answer ?

[Jimmy the Jock]

How did Tomlin do when he came on ?

[City123]

Was nice to be in the ground watching Cardiff again.

Not sure why we persist with Bacuna as an attacker though
