Scimeca is not a Wanna-BEE


It's been confirmed this evening that Cardiff City midfielder Riccy Scimeca has declined a 4 month loan deal with League One Brentford.

Scimeca has been plauged by injuries for a couple of years and that includes more problems already this season. Riccy has managed just 2 league appearences totalling 5 minutes in the past year and had a brief appearence as sub in last midweek's Carling Cup win over Bristol Rovers.

It's a fairly safe bet that he won't appear in the Championship for Cardiff any time soon as he's fallen further down the pecking order so a loan deal seems good for player and club especially given City have no reserve side and rely on very occasional informal friendlies for squad players.

However Riccy has chosen to stay and I hope it turns out to be wise.
