After the Brentford game Warnock wasnt happy with the lack of options on the bench and wanted a squad player who could cover a load of positions... Seems like he's gone for one of the most versatile of the lot... :sherlock:

Paul Warhurst :thumbup:
Or maybe Roger Gibbons or Nicky Plataneur
:hehe: That was the first name that came to my mind too. Maybe a bit too mature these days?Quote:

Defender, Midfielder and Striker all in one :hehe: and a long throw to rival Gunarsson.
No more than a squad player i'd imagine, but fits the bill of the versatile all-rounder that Warnock was after.
Leader :-)Quote:

Another 6 footer too if I remember right
Halford done deal
Welcome
I read a largely positive Q and A with a QPR fan at the time of Warnock's appointment by City in which it was said that we should expect "underwhelming" signings that often work. Well. for me. Halford, at 32 and having only played fourteen times this season for what is obviously the Championship's weakest team, falls into the underwhelming category and I dread to think what the reaction would have been on here if exactly the same signing had been made by Russell Slade - i suppose it all depends now on whether the QPR fan was right about the second part of what he said.
The cost I've seen is 100K which makes it quite a risk free signing.
He's a short stop gap to ensure we survive , I don't think we should buy big as it adds in risk ,with players like Halford you know your going to get a steady performer who will do a job in closing games down or carrying out a managers instructions .Quote:

What a shock :hehe:Quote:
