Anthony Pilkington is hoping for a less disruptive season with Cardiff
Ahead of Cardiff City's Championship clash with Wolves on Saturday, Anthony Pilkington talks to Sky Sports about his non-league roots, pub football and changing shirt colours…
People say never forget where you've come from. Anthony Pilkington is certainly one of those who will not be doing so any time soon. The state of the art facilities now afforded to him at current club Cardiff City are in stark contrast to his far more humble beginnings.
Released by Blackburn Rovers at the age of 15, following a short spell in the Manchester United academy, Pilkington was forced to contemplate the prospect that his dream of becoming a professional footballer may not come true.

Pilkington against Fulham was outstanding his running into space and closing down of players was excellent.
He would be one of the first names on the team sheet every week.

Easily one of our better players just hope he doesn't get struck with injury even though we got quality wingers ready to make a impact

His quality isn't in doubt it's the number of games he can play.
