Of the youngsters and trialist, where and how did they play? Any stand outs? Will be at Brentford Saturday. Expect us to field quite a few youngsters in that game

Narrow 2-1 defeat on aggregate in the Anglo Welsh cup. We go again.

Much improved second half in this second game. Quite impressed with todays performances and well worth the £4. From Cardiff forum. "Finished 1-0 - we barely had a kick in the last twenty minutes."

Also on their forum: "Goutas was solid, though this Rovers team wasn't much of a threat" "but Goutas wasn’t really tested" Sounds familiar, all the possession and no end product

Nice build up play for Scott Sinclair’s goal today.

The first half attacking line up is probably the most impressive since DC's promotion side was broken up.

Just stating facts, they were one of the 3 worst Championship teams and are extremely lucky to still be there. Hardly a decent Championship side as you stated.

First 60 minutes we were (just) the better side. Looked threatening, possession with purpose. Luca Hoole impressed and we were able to get behind the Cardiff defence numerous times.
Second 60 minutes, we played the kids with Marquis, Loft and Evans. A bit shaky in the first 30 mins, but Marquis missed a sitter and as the game went on the possession football we pretty impressive, without the penetration of the first game.
Overall a good runout, and despite being called Bristol C*ty too many times and patronised a bit too much, it was good fun.

Expect us to field quite a few youngsters in that game Will Larvin again did well, Harvey Greenslade after being put back to a right wing back position again did really well. Some great quick passing and got down the wing more than when he was playing in the wing with a couple of crunching tackles thrown in.

Good summary, totally agrees with what I watched.

Only Forest Green were worse. Not sure what that has to do with Cardiff being a decent championship side
