“ Cardiff City’s Head of Recruitment has left “

Cardiff managed to prise Kevin Beadell away from Arsenal's under-23s two years ago and Beadel was responsible for recruiting a lot of our loan players the last two seasons.


Kevin Beadell was head of CCFC recruitment and last week he left???

I heard he was not getting on with Darren Purse as many of the players he brought in were not being played, yet some of our loan signings Kipre , Philogene and Kaba were all outstanding.

If it’s true about Purse?? Then he better do better this season as his last 2 seasons have been dire and he is not liked by a lot of the players, and is obsessed with sending them to the Welsh League.

What is his obsession with the welsh league from? It’s not like he played there.

And Tommy Doyle was brought him in.

Just a guess on my part but maybe the new Gaffa had something to do with it.Purse may not be safe after all as maybe the Gaffa will want to mirror what the first team does in the 23's.

Purse should be gone or is he being kept as a cheap option like Steve Morison was to fill the hot seat?
Personally after last seasons results and players not coming through I thought he was a goner.

Jules Purse will be gone if results don't start getting better, Purse = jobs for the boys given the job by an old teamate, absolutely no experience whatsoever

I was under the impression that the loans to the welsh league sides where down to Gavin Chesterfield, but could be wrong there,

All the loans coming in are Nothing to do with Chesterfield 100%

Our players need to play. If the club can't get them a National League move, questions need to be asked but in the meantime, they should go for 6 months and toughen up. Tom Davies is now getting linked with League One moves after being at Pontypridd. Purse would say that is a vindication of the move.

Annis, I didn't notice Kevin's departure, his mate Alex Stafford has left though, Alex specialises in Scottish player scouting.
