    It is encouraging and I'm genuinely looking forward to seeing him play and our new midfield.

    I am having a little chuckle though because the piece is a 'Glen Williams Football Cliche Fest' ...'covers every blade of grass....'gets in the opposition's faces'....

    Still, I'm over the moon for this signing and not sick as parrot!

    Sounds like him and Wintle provide the cover for us to play four at the back.

    Glen Williams seems to get a lot of stick but those weren't his words they were the answers given by the bloke he asked the questions of??

    My bad. You're right, it was the cliched words of Jonathan Low! I skimmed down to the juicy bits and missed that part. I just thought it was one of those pseudo Q&A formats. I hadn't realised he'd actually spoken to a real person based on those answers!

    Interview with Ralls now up on the club website.

    He's apparently already in the top 20 for Cardiff City appearances - and could be closing in on the top 10 by the end of this contract.

    I can't find a date for when Joe joined the Academy from Farnborough - but it was some time in 2010, probably the summer.

    Dave Jones was sacked on 30 May 2010.

    Joe Ralls made his senior debut in the League Cup against Oxford United on 10 August 2011. So his first team career began with Malky.

    DJ left the club after the 2010/2011 season, so probably May 2011

    Sorry - my mistake.

    Yes Dave Jones was sacked (aka left the club) on 30 May 2011. So Ralls never in first team under him.

    Saw his debut at Oxford in the League Cup and was at Hull when he scored his first goal, which was a cracker.
