"I think it affects everyone at this time of year."
"I don't think it's done us any harm. I think when you look at the work people like Junior Hoilett have done over the last six months, I think the lads were almost glad of a rest really.
"Paterson was struggling with an injury too and it gave us a few extra days. He's got a chance [to face Barnsley] and we'll have a fitness test tomorrow."
The Scot is not the only one edging closer to a return, with Warnock revealing that a clutch of first team players are also on the cusp of getting themselves back into the first team picture, including midfield enforcer Aron Gunnarsson, who has made his long-awaited return to full training.
"We've got one or two knocks but nothing new really," he added.
"Morrison, we're going to leave until last minute but he is training at the minute and Gunnarsson has been training too which is good news. He's back out on the grass and that's great for us.
"Peltier and Traore should be back for the weekend but Tuesday will be too soon for them as I think they need training and Jamie Ward will play in the under-23s on Thursday to make sure he has a good hour.
