A reserve team friendly produced a poor performance and result saw Weymouth give City's players a bit of a pasting, the Dorset side comfortable thoughout, making it a forgettable night for 40 or so travelling Bluebirds in the 1,200+ crowd.City's side included Jason Byrne and Kevin Cooper as well as "blooded" first team youngsters in Matt Green, Dray Blake and Aaron Ramsey. By all accounts, only the promise of Blake and Ramsey made any impression and stood out from the blandness otherwise produced by Cardiff.
Weymouth scored a rebound from a first half penalty and cruised home with two other goals in a second period more notable for constant substitutions than any quality of football. Hopefully, the players gained some fitness and sharpness, because there were few positives to take away otherwise.
Next friendly - a first team fixture at Stockport on Saturday (July 28)
