He was my coach back in the days when I was playing for Cynon Valley and Mid Glam. Heard he was scouting for city now but haven't seen him all season at the mini football games in the Cynon Valley.

John O sullivan is deffo a scout for city, he picked up a few players from our u7s last season and hes coming to watch 2 more when we play next. i spoke to him last week and he said he attends events every week but has been over the rhondda and llantrisant way alot lately thats why he aint been seen much around the Aberdare valley

Missing a trick there. Loads of talented lads playing mini football in the Aberdare area although there doesn't seem to be anyone watching. My boy got asked to attend the Swansea academy they run in Ponty but was dead against it. Only 8 and wouldn't go near a Swansea shirt lol.

We've had a few go down to the ponty development centre, a few of whom had been training with cardiff previously and they felt that the set-up was a lot better with the jacks as they looked after the kids alot better.

reason i asked was he was over watching the brad (caerphilly) youth playing, one lad playing for them is cory nicholas,
Apparently (im no expert) he's got it, john didnt think so, he actually scored a hatrick on the day.
but was not approached ???

Yeah, he came down to Neath years ago and was checking out the CCFC soccer school.

Have a word with Scott Young, if you know of some tidy players that need looking at.

Cardiff tend to look at the more athletic children and swansea prefer the technically better ones. Apparently it had come from the top of both clubs, well thats what the contacts i have in both scouting set ups have said. Hopefully that will change now that jones has been f**ked off and we will start to see a few more promising youngsters coming through :ayatollah:
