Hi Guys,
I went over to bristol yesterday to watch the under 18+16s play against Watford.
The under 18 game was highly competitive and chances we going either end, ( cardiff lad) again played up front and flicked on some headers which his co striker could not finish.
( Cardiff Lad) link up play was also very good and the watford defenders didnt have it their own way.
The game ended in a 2-1 defeat fro bristol with ***** only really having a couple of chances to get on the score sheet, bristols goal came via a penalty and watfords second goal looked to be from an offside postion, a draw would have been fair.
**** played a full 90 minutes for bristol city reserves in a behind closed doors game against forest green. He played in a strong reserve team in centre midfield which bristol won 3-2,
( Cardiff lad) scored a 22 yard volley as he continues his claims for a regualr start..
Bristol citys under 16 played exceptionally well in their game against watford u16s, ( Cardiff Lad) continues to show good form and one hundred per cent commitment in centre midfield as well as show why he has been given a scholarship contract. ( Barry Lad) looked dangerous from the very start sending in a superb right wing cross which the forward did not score..
Bristol went on to win the game 3-1 with wes creating the second goal following a good run from the right picking out mile to score, connor finn played a solid game at left back and didnt give any change to the midfield opponent. The watching spectators included chairman steve lansdown, steve wigley, assistant manager, john clayton, alan walsh.
Having spoken with ******* he informed me that the chairman said the club should sign ***** after watching for only 20 minutes, the family are delighted ******* future is now sorted for the next couple of years. Also watching the game was a selector for Wales under 17,19,21s and he was asking about ***** so it looks like he will be considered for future call ups for Wales...
The feedback for (Welsh Lad) was he did well and bristol would like to see him in another game as well as training. He is going training with bristol rovers tomorrow and playing for them in a game next saturday, he is also going to play for shrewsbury town under 18s in a game against macclesfield u18s next sunday...
( Welsh lad) showed up well in training with rovers and will continue to train and paly in a couple of games for them..
Cardiff city under 16s played away at coventry u16s yestterday, %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
( Welsh Lad) played a full game for Ipswich town u18s helping them to a 1-0 victory over league leaders crystal palace, having spoken with the local scout he said the club are delighted with how ********* is progressing in his application to training and games, which is very encouraging and see him as a certain pro.
I will send paper reports to the Office in the Morning
Regards
