Guessing Giles is with the firsts tonight then?
And Simic maybe
City score after two minutes - Nyakhuwa header from a Jefferies cross.
1-1, City been really careless since they scored.
1-1 at half time. A few signs of life from City late in the half, but the general standard of play is not a patch on what we were seeing pre Christmas - Lawlor’s having a good game though.
Great finish by Nyakhuwa puts City ahead - lovely ball from the back by Lawlor.
2 - 1 win. Well deserved.
Better second half from both sides. Swansea will feel they didn’t deserve to lose, but the quality of the winning goal just about meant our win was a deserved one I thought. Really good save by Armstrong to tip a cross shot on to the bar, Lawlor was excellent, he has very good feet for a big lad, as well as an ability to pick a pass which may be better than any of the centrebacks in the senior squad. Nyakhuwa took his goals well and Spiers had a strong game at right back.
It’s four points out of six against the jacks for the senior side, a double for the under 21s, one win from one for the under 18s and under 16s and a win and a loss for the women’s team - must be our most dominant season against them in ages up to now.
Today’s first goal.

Lovely through ball from him for the 2nd goal. Usually depends solidly too.
Highlights from yesterday here. I made a jokey comment after the Reading pre-season friendly that no one at the club can hit a long pass like Lawlor can. It's something that stood out the couple of times I'd seen him, just effortlessly picking people out from miles away as though it was nothing. Maybe I wasn't that far out, seems quite a gift he's got there.

The under-18s lost 4-2 at Brentford today, another goal for Rob Tankiewicz though. Alyas Debono with the other.
11 Bluebirds in the Wales u19 squad for friendlies against Czechia this week
https://www.cardiffcityfc.co.uk/news...nal-experience
Luke Armstrong, Ewan Griffiths, Dylan Lawlor, Luey Giles, Alyas Debono, Josh Beecher, Cody Twose, Dakarai Mafico, Troy Perrett, Trey George, Mannie Barton
how long is Kpakio out for? presumably he'd be involved also
Out for the season isn't he?
Yes presumably he'd have been involved. They're playing Cezchia this afternoon, many regulars not in the squad apparently
Lost 3-2 today, Troy Perrett scored though.
Lawlor, Giles and Mafico didn't travel, which might be interesting.
Looked a weakened side from what I saw so not a bad result in fairness
Lost the second game 1-0. Armstrong, Beecher, George, Twose and Barton all started.
Interesting article, thanks for that.
There's a local derby against the wurzels for the under 18s at Leckwith this morning, kick off at 11 o clock.
I don't think it's been mentioned in this thread before, but the club website is saying that we are playing West Brom at Leckwith in the next stage of the under 21 Premier League Cup at Leckwith on Friday 7 March, kick off at 7 pm.
Down 0 - 1 at HT.
