‘ MICK McCARTHY TELLS OF CITY’S PRE-SEASON PLANS

Postby Forever Blue » Fri Apr 16, 2021 6:04 am

Cardiff City will stay put for pre-season this summer owing to uncertainty over travelling abroad, Mick McCarthy has confirmed.

With five games left to play, plans are already in place ahead of the 2021/2022 campaign, with many clubs fearful of travelling too far afield given travel restrictions and the rollout rates of the coronavirus vaccine across the continent and beyond.

Just this week, former Bluebirds boss Neil Warnock confirmed his Middlesbrough side will be staying in the UK, opting for the manager's favourite pre-season destination down in Cornwall, a spot some of these current Cardiff players will know all too well.

But City will stay even closer to home than that and will undertake all of their pre-season training at their Vale of Glamorgan HQ.




MICK McCARTHY:

"We are not going anywhere," McCarthy said. "No plans.

"Can you tell us where we can go and what’s going to be open? Where we can fly? No one has any idea yet.

"Please god, this pandemic is going to be over and we move out of it. But to put 40 people on public transport and flying somewhere would be irresponsible to be honest.

"We would love to do it if we could, but we are going to stay around here.

"We have got a fabulous training facility. So there are no plans at all.

"It’s impossible to plan for it because you just can’t do it."

The Bluebirds face Reading at 6pm on Friday evening in the first of their final five fixtures of the season.

I will be more interested in the recruitment model, we are losing class players this summer and we need to recruit a fair few new players in all areas of the pitch
