Marked for Thomas Evans

Squad30 Apr 2029

The knee: Thomas Evans out for 18 days

18 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Cardiff City lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Match24 Apr 2029

David Turnbull leads the rout of Blackburn Rovers

5‑2, and David Turnbull took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Cardiff City tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Match30 Apr 2029

Cardiff City finish in position 5

81 points, and the season has a number on it. Whatever it felt like from the inside, this is what it will look like in a book.

Squad30 Apr 2029

David Turnbull takes the match ball home

3 goals in one afternoon from one man. The other players were also present, a witness confirmed.

Ayyoub Bouaddi, 21, steals the show — 8.37

Marked 8.37 at 21, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Loan watch30 Apr 2029

The goals keep arriving from Cian Ashford’s exile

21 goals in 45 games at Blackpool — numbers that travel home faster than he does. Somebody at Cardiff City updates a spreadsheet every Monday, and it makes better reading each week.

Market30 Apr 2029

Harry Tyrer asks to leave Cardiff City

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Match24 Apr 2029

7 goals as Cardiff City and Blackburn Rovers go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 7 goals between Cardiff City and Blackburn Rovers, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Squad30 Apr 2029

Alejandro Garnacho is carrying Cardiff City

14 goals and a season average of 7.26. Form like that gets noticed well beyond this town.

The knee: Thomas Evans out for 26 days

A brace, and Alejandro Garnacho takes the afternoon — 8.47

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Alejandro Garnacho provided it, and the 8.47 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Ayyoub Bouaddi, 21, steals the show — 8.46

Marked 8.46 at 21, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Loan watch23 Apr 2029

The goals keep arriving from Cian Ashford’s exile

19 goals in 44 games at Blackpool — numbers that travel home faster than he does. Somebody at Cardiff City updates a spreadsheet every Monday, and it makes better reading each week.

Joel Colwill has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Cardiff City they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad23 Apr 2029

Remember the name: Ayyoub Bouaddi

He is 21, he is averaging 7.08, and older professionals have started passing to him in the difficult minutes. That last part is the real scouting report.

Match21 Apr 2029

Cardiff City get the job done against Birmingham

A 3‑1 win over Birmingham, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad23 Apr 2029

Defences have started doubling up on Alejandro Garnacho

13 goals and a season average of 7.23 will do that. The space he used to find has gone; he keeps scoring anyway, which is the mark of the real thing.

Squad23 Apr 2029

Words exchanged at Cardiff City

Leon Chiwome and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

In brief

  • The terraces The crowd has taken to Mannie Barton
  • The dugout The manager makes an example of Leon Chiwome
