Swansea City 4 Cheltenham Town 2 – U17 PDL Cup Semi-Final

Our U17s finally triumphed 4-2 after extra time this evening against Cheltenham to clinch a place in the PDL Cup Final. Cheltenham can feel a little hard done by, although – on sheer chances alone – Swans hat-trick sub Callum Jones created probably more on his own than the opposition did. We narrowly avoided having …

Swansea City 0 Ipswich Town 0 – Under 21 Professional Development League

A fast paced match in the Landore drizzle that finished goalless but was highly entertaining throughout.

Swansea City 0 Queens Park Rangers 1 – Under 18 Professional Development League

Our U18s must be highly frustrated that QPR pinched the points today with a 1-0 win. We created and passed up a multitude of clear chances. The inevitable happened on 75 minutes when QPR left winger Kennedy carved some room for himself on the edge of the box, we switched off and he struck a …

Swansea City 4 Crewe Alexandra 2 – U17 PDL Cup

Well, tonight’s encounter was played on the nearside academy pitch – meaning there was no cover, no seats, a generally poor view of the pitch, no teamsheet and the inevitable shower as the night progressed… but what a great game to watch. Our U17s finally triumphed 4-2 after extra time against a Crewe side that …

Swansea City 0 QPR 5 – Under 21 Professional Development League

This was one of those academy games that seem to defy comprehension. Having spurned numerous opportunities in a dazzling first half display, the Swans team went into the interval with a shock goal conceded bang on half-time. With just a minor personnel change for the 2nd half, the game somehow turned completely, QPR getting a …

Swansea City 5 Ipswich Town 2 – Under 18 Professional Development League

A thrilling 2nd half comeback from our youngsters to clinch a 5-2 win over Ipswich in what was our first home league U18s fixture since 26th November. Ipswich were fairly dour opponents who possessed a number of really big, imposing players and a significant potent threat at set pieces. Left sided attacker Eze alone must …

Maliq Cadogan against Cardiff City

Cardiff City 2 Swansea City 1 – Under 21 Professional Development League

A rather underwhelming performance at Leckwith this afternoon, which is forming something of an unwelcome habit for our academy teams. No need to repeat the detail of the OS report. We started 4-3-2-1, conceded an early goal on 2 minutes through lazy defending, but controlled much of the 1st half – equalising when Maliq Cadogan …
