Hudson out - Bothroyd and Quinn fit for Derby

With a striker problems to handle Cardiff City boss Dave Jones a minor defensive issue has risen to curtail his plans for the next League game. He will be without ever present defender Mark Hudson of the Derby game and could be out for up to six weeks after he limped off during the Millwall game last Saturday. The official Cardiff City website confirmed he suffered a Grade Two tear of his knee ligaments.


Cardiff City's towering defender Mark Hudson has suffered a grade 2 tear to his knee ligaments after injuring himself in the 3-3 draw with Millwall on Saturday. Boss Jones has a number of options the fill the hole left in the centre of defence for Hudson. There are a number of options to partner Dekel Keinan in the heart of the defence, Gabor Gyepes came on to replaced Hudson and could be favourite to stop in. However, Jones could look to Darcy Blake.

On the upside, striker Jay Bothroyd and defender Paul Quinn are both expected to return for the Derby if there is no problems with their recover from their injuries during the international break. The boo boys may not be too happy.
