Weston-super-Mare AFC can confirm that forward James Waite has been recalled from his loan spell.

Since returning on loan from the Bluebirds at the start of the season, the Wales under-21 international made 11 appearances, scoring six goals and getting three assists.




Manager Scott Bartlett said:

James has become part of the furniture here, we’d love to keep him for longer and we’ve delayed the decision as long as we can in the hope we get back playing but unfortunately right now his only guaranteed chance to play games is back at his club.

“The Welsh transfer window is complicated, we have no clue if or when we will be able to play again so naturally ourselves and Cardiff have made the right choice for James.

“Added to the decision is the fact that Cardiff have a new manager and it’s up to James to go back and impress him.

“I’m sure our supporters will join me in wishing him all the best for the remainder of the season and thank him for his efforts in a Weston shirt. We also hope it’s not the last we see of him”.

Is Waite anywhere near good enough for the first team? He has been on City’s books for a while and Wikipedia says he will be 22 in May. So he’s probably unlikely to make a difference.

Always thought he was a good prospect c”mon back to Cardiff and go mate

i think its Danny Williams from haverford west your thinking of ? went there on loan this season and should also be back... but havent read anything about him or Bolger who was at loan with Shamrock Rovers...

Loan spell at Weston didn't do Ollie Watkins any harm. Here's dreaming they have something in the water over there!

I was hoping this would say Ciaron Brown

Can't honestly see Waite ever playing for us. Might as well have left him where he was and off the wage bill.

MM is a creature of habit, very familiar with the Welsh team set up, he recruted quite a few in the past on loan. He'll know him and if he got what's needed he'll be a squad regular, if not it's back out on loan or salesbin... A piece at a time.

Good point .
