" QPR accept Cardiff bid for Matt Connolly "

Considering he was in the Reading team that got promoted it's a good deal, happy with this

He only played 6 games for Reading

But he played 118 for QPR.. in that promotion winning season too. Only young, seems like a decent acquisition

118 games in a promotion winning season. He must be fit.....

Yeh

He is a bit of a looker

instead of who though?

Most people on here seem to love Turner, although Hudsons been the better of the two (and was by miles on Friday)

I agree Hudson has been fair better than Turner. Should be Interesting this one.

Will be interesting if Malky signs him Smith and a QPR youngster. Hmm

Annis, will he be available for tomorrow night or is it too soon?

They were trying to, but it will prob be to late.

So three QPR players then Annis?

Connolly can play all over the back four. Not just center half!

Lets hope he can pass it 5 yards, something neither Turner or Hudson seem capable of doing without looking like a giraffe with an ingrowing toe nail.

Is Hudson the bloke that got the winner on Saturday and scored from 68 yards last season, the one you describe as looking like a giraffe with an ingrowing toe nail? -' Bish Bash Bosh' - more like 'what a load of tosh'!

What's that got to do with his passing decisions and range? His job is to defend & attack from the back

Paying 500 k I think

Oh come on Polo, I've always been a fan of yours, but if you're going, go, don't use other aliases to continue to post.

I don't want you to go mind, and would prefer it if you posted under the old Polo name, but you're letting yourself down if you say you're going (like you've done before and did again last night), only to return in this way.

Maybe he will be competing with Mcnaughton for a place?

I can't see him displacing Hudson or turner unless we get an injury but it's all about the squad.

Cardiff City are close to signing Queens Park Rangers centre-half Matthew Connolly.
QPR manager Mark Hughes has accepted an undisclosed bid for Connolly, who is aiming to complete a hat-trick of promotions.

Connolly, 24, was in the Rangers team who won the Championship title two years ago - and was on loan with Reading when they were crowned champions last season.

Barnet-born Connolly is a former Arsenal trainee who had loan spells with Bournemouth and Colchester United before a £1m transfer from the Gunners to Rangers in 2008.

He has made 116 League appearances for QPR.

Manager Malky Mackay is preparing for City's League match at Brighton tomorrow as his recruitment department work to complete the Connolly deal.

Mackay has confirmed there are no fresh injury worries after City's 1-0 win against Huddersfield Town last Friday and he will take an unchanged squad to Brighton.

Stephen McPhail (hamstring) and Kadeem Harris (calf) are the only players in the treatment room, while South Korean signing Kim Bo-Kyung is still awaiting his work permit clearance.

"Kim is in South Korea completing some paperwork," said Mackay.

"His transfer to Cardiff City is complete, but there is some administration to be sorted.

"We expect Kim to arrive in Cardiff next weekend, which means he will miss our matches against Brighton and Bristol City, but we hope to have him with us well before our next home match against Wolves."

Cardiff City (v Brighton, probable): Marshall, McNaughton, Hudson (capt), Turner, Taylor, Cowie, Gunnarsson, Whittingham, Mutch, Bellamy, Helguson.

If you check the OP, you'll notice that it has been edited and the Walesonline post which I added to the thread, has been copied and pasted into the thread afterwards!

It's still virtually the same though
