A commanding performance, not wholly fluent to begin with, but we completely dominated the final 3rd of the game and should have scored a hatful of goals. As it was, Crewe were fortunate to get away with conceding just the 4 and somehow managed to get themselves a consolation in the dying seconds to go …
The U21 won this evening 7-1. 2-1 at HT but ran a tired side ragged after an hour. Could’ve easily been double figures. In fairness, the Penybont keeper performed wonders. Very pleasing outing with lots of good exposure for our youngsters. I’ll be a bit more specific once I’ve totted things up! Tricky to follow, …
Here in blustery and rainy Carmarthen, it was a performance to cheer the soul. Our U21 won 4-0, it could’ve been far more, but that’s not important. What was most important is that we played a fluent attacking game and one that the players clearly thrive on. We were 4 up by half-time, Carmarthen were …
Folk will have seen the highlights, so it’ll be evident what great quality we showed in both creating and finishing chances this afternoon. The combination play between Ben Lloyd and Liam Smith in particular was a joy to watch. Birmingham had no answer to Smith’s probing breaks, they reorganised after 20 minutes from 4-4-2 to 5-3-2 …
Our U21 stuttered a little to a 3-1 victory this evening – not the most convincing of performances, but we’ve been spoiled lately. Our youngsters still managed to hit the woodwork 3 times and, while the display had moments of sloppiness, we created lots of chances throughout the game. Line-up (4-1-4-1): Remi Mitchell; Joe Thomas, Harry …

Another encouraging result for our U21 – 4-1 – this time at the main stadium. The game was preceded by a torrential burst of hailstones, which predictably made the pitch quite slippery. We lined up 4-1-4-1 and varied positions throughout the 2nd half with substitutions: Remi Mitchell; Harry Jones (sub Joe Thomas 75m), Filip Lissah, …
A somewhat lacklustre 3-1 win today. We dominated proceedings throughout but, after an impressive first half hour, our U21 found it difficult to break down a well-organised and disciplined Hull side. We went 4-1-4-1 again, this time with Tiv Rushesha initially taking up the right back role: Lewis Webb; Tiv Rushesha, Kai Ludvigsen (sub Harry Jones …
An entertaining 5-3 victory played in typical Swansea drizzle. In the first half, we cut through the Ipswich defence at will. We got 2 early goals and it really could have been more even then. Although we started with a back 3 of Jones, Ludvigsen and Blythe, the team quickly settled into a fluid 4-1-4-1 formation, with …
