Neil Warnock plays down ‘bad blood’ between Derby County and Cardiff City

Neil Warnock has played down talks of ‘bad blood’ between Derby County and Cardiff City ahead of tomorrow night’s meeting.

The Bluebirds head to Pride Park Stadium for a second time this season, after the original Championship fixture in March was postponed due to heavy snow.

Warnock and the club were unhappy with the decision to call the game off – but the EFL said it remained satisfied.

A foul-mouthed video later emerged on social media of Cardiff skipper Sean Morrison taking aim at three Derby players.

He spoke about Richard Keogh, Jason Shackell and Alex Pearce, although Warnock passed it off as “banter” at the time.

When asked at his pre-match press conference about the video and if there was any ‘bad blood’ between the sides, Warnock said: “When you’re fighting for what we are, there’s going to be an edge.

“The players get on well and I know they had the so-called Twitter thing, I call it a different word!

“It was light-hearted and they’ll be shaking hands at the end of the game.

“Life’s too short (for bad blood).”

Derby go into the game a point and a place outside the Championship play-offs, knowing if they beat the Bluebirds they will be back in the top six with two games to play.

Cardiff, meanwhile, can move four points ahead of Fulham – with six points left to play for – with a victory.

“My tips for promotion were Middlesbrough and Derby at the start of the season,” said Warnock. “So credit to Wolves.

“I still think their (Derby’s) squad is as good as any in the league.

“They’ll be desperate to get in the play-offs and we could be playing them in a few weeks.”
