On Cardiff being linked with a move for Neil Etheridge

The Bluebirds have been linked with a move for Walsall goalkeeper Neil Etheridge.

Here’s what Warnock had to say on a potential deal.

NEIL WARNOCK:


"We spoke to the club in January about Neil but I wasn’t prepared to pay for the fee. I leave it to the keeping coach, Dibble advises us what we should do so we leave it to him.”

05/05/17

Cardiff City are looking to sign Walsall goalkeeper Neil Etheridge when his current deal with Walsall ends this summer according to HITC.

Neil Warnock has previously stated that he is unable to sign Scotland's Allan McGregor - who is currently on loan from Premier League side Hull City - so a permanent basis is unlikely due to Cardiff City's financial reasons.

Glad to see the season come to an end?


NEIL WARNOCK:

"Yes, I think so. I would say I’m like extracting teeth at the minute. I don’t like football when there’s nothing at stake. I can get my head around being one end of the other, I don’t like making up numbers. I’ve asked lads to make sure we perform and we have done."

" NEIL WARNOCK TO MEET VINCENT TAN TO DISCUSS "



Neil Warnock:

"I met Mehmet (Dalman) and Ken (Choo) this week and I’m going to fly out to see Vincent (Tan) towards the end of May. It’s okay on the phone but when you want to talk about numerous things regarding club it has to be face to face, I’m going with Ken and a meeting should clarify a lot of things."


"He has the final say on a lot of things because he owns the club. It’s the earliest I can go and I want Ken to come with me, he can speak the language if we have to go into great depths about certain things and he can’t go until the end of the month."

"There’s certain situations I want to speak to him about and I can’t do that on the phone, not when you’re hard of hearing like me.”

Lets hope he can convince tan to spend a little bit more

NEIL WARNOCK:

"Nothing. We’ve had a good chat Peter & I, we’ve laid the cards out, he has to see what happens, what develops for him, he might have clubs who can offer a more lucrative contract or a chance to play more regularly, he has to weigh up one side or the other before committing himself."

"He knows what I’m thinking. I don’t think he’ll leave it too long to make a decision."

"I’ve offered him a contract, it’s not like his last contract. He has to weigh it up. I know he’s loyal but he has to weigh things up. He might have opp to have another couple of years at another challenge. I would imagine we’ll know what each other’s doing by the time we come back from Malaysia.”

On Huddersfield


Neil Warnock:


"I think I’d want to lose if I was them, I wouldn’t want to get Fulham! Don’t know what side, there’ll be one or two wanting a game, as a player you don’t like not playing. It’ll be a strong team and they’ll want to beta us, last home match, go out with a bang.”

Bruno Manga contract situation

"We’ve spoken. He’s gone away. They play June 11 (Gabon) so I’ve arranged with Bruno for him to fly back on June 13. I’ll be discussing him with Vincent and talking to his agent in the meantime."


"There’s discussions and I think he’s enjoying playing for me, but the circumstances couldn’t be the same as before. Since I’ve been here he’s played very well and it would be nice to keep him."


"We’ve got the best three centre-backs in the division I think and then Connolly who I totally trust wherever I play him. You need that, look at Brighton with (Shane) Duffy and dunk, it’s a vital position.”

Warnock on sides fielding weakened teams


NEIL WARNOCK:

"I understand where David (Wagner) is coming from, but he’s never seen it from the other side, the hurt it causes. It’s still poisonous at the back of my mind when I look at the Liverpool teamsheet that played Fulham. Then United with no Scholes, Rooney. It was deflating."

"I don’t think they should be punished, you should pick who you want, but when you’ve experienced my side of the coin. I’ll take it to the grave with me.”

On Allan McGregor's future


NEIL WARNOCK:

"I think he’s done well. First couple of games I was disappointed with him, but he’s been great, fitted in. He’s loved his time, it’s given him a new zest, we have to play it by here. "

"I think he hopes Hull stays up so it’s like winning for the pools. I don’t know if he stays, financially it’s difficult because we only took him for a few months. We’ll have to see.”

Warnock on how Stan Collymore opened his eyes to mental health issues

Wow. This is powerful stuff from Warnock who has just revealed how Stan Collymore played a huge part in opening his eyes to mental health issues.



NEIL WARNOCK:

"Stan Collymore brought it out to me. Managers would think how can you be depressed on £100,000 a week. Until you look into the illness, my eyes have been open since Stan’s comments. I’ve never made light or joke of it since."

Warnock on Newport County's bid to stay in the Football League

When he says Whittinghams contract is not like his old one.. does that imply nowhere near as much money?

Is he looking for a way to persuade Whitts to leave?

Whitts was on a Premier League Contract.

City have offered Whitts a Championship contract that Warnocks small budget can afford.

On talks with Lee Camp

NEIL WARNOCK

"I’ve spoken but we must have spoken to five or six keepers. You’ve got to be looking around when you haven’t got one! Murphy’s been fantastic for us, I wouldn’t hesitate to play him but you still need three keeper so I’ll be looking to sign two keepers for definite in the summer period."

"I want people who want to play for us. I’ll make my mind up but I can’t see us do anything until the end of the month.”

Iceland midfielder Aron Gunnarsson could also be rested ahead of international duty, and Bluebirds boss Neil Warnock is expected to hand a few fringe players an opportunity.

Defender Matt Connolly, goalkeeper Brian Murphy and wingers Mark Harris and Craig Noone could all start.

Looks like NW really wants to keep BM at the club and may well be asking VT to push the boat out to make that possible. I'd love to be a fly on the wall when he speaks to VT about this one.

Looks like NW has decided that PW will, at best, be only a squad player should he decide to stay and that he isn't bothered either way. Love Whitts but all players eventually leave and, in my opinion, it looks more likely than not we have now reached that point.

Yeah I think NW has made it pretty clear, the contract seems to be a token gesture by the club.

Sounds like he's guna ask vinny to back him on a contract for Manga maybe? IMO well worth giving Manga a decent deal it will be hard to replace someone of his level without a feww and/or high wages.

Jack, I have heard similar and that Warnock needs a bit more money for his budget.
