Bluebirds on international duty

Last updated : 05 October 2006 By Michael Morris
Joe Ledley and Paul Parry are with Wales as they face Slovakia and Cyprus in Cardiff and Neil Alexander is in the Scotland squad that faces France at Hampden Park on Saturday before heading to Kiev to face Ukraine.

Kevin McNaughton was named in the Scottish squad but a hamstring injury has forced him out of the reckoning.

Despite there being many injury worries for Steve Staunton the Irish manager has not recalled Stephen McPhail, the City midfielder is having an excellent season but it's not been enough to warrant a call from the Emerald Isle.

Good luck to the players and lets hope they have a successful and injury free time.
