Michael Flynn has ended speculation about his future by committing to Newport County until June 2020. Exiles’ manager Flynn has signed contract extension on the day of Newport’s Emirates FA Cup replay against Spurs at Wembley Stadium. He had been linked with the material vacancy at his former club Bradford City and said: “It’s nice […]
Cardiff City are at home against Watford in a Professional Development League Cup match this afternoon. The under-23 match is at Cardiff City Stadium (Thursday, 1pm) and the young Bluebirds are looking to repeat their league win against the Hornets during October.

Sam Bowen scored a last gasp winner for Cardiff City in their Professional Development League under-18 home match against Ipswich Town. Bowen struck in the final minute to seal a 2-1 win for coach Craig Bellamy’s team at Cardiff Sports Campus. Ipswich, who have former Bluebirds striker Alan Lee in charge of their team, had […]
Ryan Giggs reckons being named the Wales manager for the next four years was “the proudest moment of my life”. And the man who made the first of his 64 Welsh appearances as a 17-year-old back in 1991 vowed to win over the fans who have criticised him for missing so many friendlies during his playing career “by winning matches”.
The appointment of Ryan Giggs as Wales’ new manager has not met with universal approval from the fans who remember those missed friendlies when he was a player. Dai Sport’s Alun Rhys Chivers is one of the doubters and asks whether it is just a publicity stunt by the FAW.
Ryan Giggs has become a stronger favourite to succeed Chris Coleman as Wales manager following interviews for the job conducted by the FAW. Giggs’ odds with the bookmakers have shortened after the former Manchester United star put his case to a selection panel on Friday, along with fellow candidates Osian Roberts, Craig Bellamy and late contender Mark Bowen. The FAW is expected to make their choice within days for a post that has been vacant since Coleman left for Sunderland.
Cardiff City’s young Bluebirds wasted too many chances and crashed out of the FA Youth Cup last night.

Sam Bowen, Sion Spence and Isaak Davies all went close before centre-half […]

MK Dons have already won twice in the FA Youth Cup, […]
Craig Bellamy would jump at the chance of taking over as Wales manager – even though he has admitted he is not ready for a Premier League job. As Chris Coleman prepares for his first match as Sunderland boss following his decision to leave the Wales job, Bellamy has put his name forward as a possible successor. The 38-year-old former striker – currently coaching in the academy at Cardiff City – is already third favourite for the Wales role behind Tony Pulis and Ryan Giggs.
Sion Spence and Isaak Davies were the Cardiff City marksmen in their under-18 Professional Development League match against Bristol City. Craig Bellamy’s young Bluebirds won the Severnside derby 2-0 at the USW Sports Park. The next test for Cardiff’s young guns is against Coventry City at home on Thursday, November 16 (11.30am). They will then […]
