Warnock The Motivator

Having been unable to hang on to Mark Hudson, Neil Warnock has provided some parting motivation for the centre-half following his move to the Valley. Warnock has told the Croydon Guardian that the move is a mistake and that Hudson was going nowhere when Warnock arrived.

It's really good to see the emotion north of Brighton that this move has caused because you know we have got a decent player on the cheap. Neil Warnock would do well to remind himself that the whole Palace team was going nowhere when he arrived. If Hudson has over-performed, then so has the rest of the side. Palace's revival was built upon a sound defence, not a blistering attack and Mark Hudson was the mainstay of that defence. His departure will be a big loss for Palace and Warnock and Jordan might live to see his departure as a mistake for Palace.
