Ledley blow for Bluebirds

Cardiff City will be without midfielder Joe Ledley for three matches after he was named in the Wales Under-19 squad.

The 18-year-old, who played in the senior squad against Poland last month, will be part of the squad which will start the UEFA Under-19 Championship qualifiers this week, facing hosts France, as well as Austria and San Marino.

The call-up rules Ledley out of City's league games with Crewe and Sheffield United, plus the Carling Cup tie against Leicester.
