There was a planned trials evening to take place in Swansea tomorrow evening but the numbers of children, again from Newport and Cardiff areas, has swelled so the trials for a place in Swansea's academy will now take place this Saturday.
The youngsters who get through will be coached at Heath Park in Cardiff.
Russell Slade was not even aware that John Brayford and Kimbo had left the club until after the deals were finalised.

If that's the case regarding RS, then his position has become untenable. How can any manager worth his salt be "unaware" of any of his players being moved on without his knowledge,,,or at the very least, his council?

It's bad , the problem we have is that Swansea apart from their PremierLeague status they have a philosophy of playing passing football , we at Cardiff seem to have a philosophy of lumping it forward and hoping for the best. If I was a parent I know which philosophy I would want my kids learning and sadly that's not the one Cardiff have at the moment
