Chris Gunter has named his MU19 squad for their final friendly matches before #U19EURO👇

@ACEcast_Nation @CCFCWorld @Si1927 Good work lads. Think it's impossible to think 5 years ahead in football nowadays. So many variables, look at Southampton. However BBM lead good practices, sound investment in academy and infrastructure and continue to build club from bottom upwards would be most welcome 🙏

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

@Crop1973 @TonyRivers1927 😆, secrets out now mate, decades of undercover deception. Nabbed!

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

@bobbankvillage The main gist of my reply was the u19s talent pool being unavailable appears to have gone over your head.

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

@ZCymru Very comprehensive fella, thanks for taking the time to construct this. You'd make an excellent addition to our recruitment department!!

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

@Slade2242388217 Do you not think our club under BBM would not evaluate every aspect of a potential new signing before coming to their conclusion? No idea as to validity of rumour but look at the reactions of Ipswich fans. Trust the proccess and more importantly BBM and co.

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

Yet reading most of our fans responses to this rumour you would swear we were being linked with Baccuna again! Injury issues apart I don't get it whatsoever. He'd be Premier bound if not for that and probably still will be!!

[Andrew Murphy @piratesmurf24]

@mjccfc Every town fan will be devastated when he leaves mate
Spent millions on right wingers and he cost 50k and he is still the best we have.
Had bad injury in the Prem and we badly missed him.
Class on and off the pitch

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

@ClarkeSZN47 If ever I wanted a rumour to pan out. Wes would be a fantastic fit in a BBM team. BBM and McKenna cut from same piece of cloth imo.

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

@BLTGaryBell @ThreeBluebirds_ Hi Gary, unfortunately the lad arrived with an injury and he's had very limited mins thus far. Hopefully a good pre season behind him will see him flourishing.

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

That's our goalkeeper and both fullbacks signed to contracts with this season still not officially over.
Fantastic early business done by our club and hopefully a signal of what may follow in due course.

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

Mart loves pre season!!!!

@mjccfc @ACommonBluebird Lol, timing MATT!!

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

I wrote a few weeks ago that I felt the retained list would be brutal in regards to our u21 squad to clear the pathway for our u18s and under.
Many will be shocked with some of the names released. I totally get it. There's more to being a pro footballer than talent for sure.

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

Wonderful news and richly deserved. Voted by his fellow pros as best LB in league 1, international call up, now this news. Absolute machine for me. Not only gets BBM but just like Mozza and Ralls gets our club as much as any academy product.

[Cardiff City FC @CardiffCityFC]

We are delighted to announce @joelbagan has signed a new contract with the #Bluebirds! 💙

Our number 3️⃣ has put pen-to-paper on a deal that will run until the summer of 2️⃣0️⃣3️⃣0️⃣.

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

@mjccfc @ACommonBluebird No idea tbh. List had to be submitted to EFL by Saturday but it's been common club practice to delay putting it in public domain the last few seasons.

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

@ACommonBluebird @mjccfc No mate, but had a heads up few days ago. Wrong of me to be specific until in public domain.

[Mart@ Cardiff Development @DiffDevelopment]

@mjccfc Exactly this. Our first team squad is filled with 21s players it stands to reason those playing for the 21s are all vulnerable with the talent emerging at younger age groups. The system doesn't allow you to stand still, it's a constant evolution.
