NEIL WARNOCK played down the any notion of bad blood between promotion-chasing Cardiff and Derby today after their Championship game was postponed in controversial circumstances last month.

The two clubs will meet at Pride Park tonight, 37 days after the original fixture was postponed when Derby said heavy snow meant the area surrounding the stadium was in an “unsafe condition.”

Cardiff manager Warnock called the decision a “disgrace” and said Derby did not want to play the game because of an injury crisis.
