Transfer Deadline Day but No Activity Expected at City


The transfer window for 2009 slams firmly shut at 5pm today but Cardiff City supremo Peter Ridsdale is already on record as expecting no deals to take place involving the club.


There are no current enquiries for any players and of the most saleable assets, Ross McCormack faces another month out of action while Joe Ledley is about is sign a new deal to remain at the club.


Manager Dave Jones would dearly like 2 or 3 more players but revised that to just one at the weekend but without players leaving, he knows that is remote. Fans are also concerned if City now face Jay Bothroyd being absent for a while but there is always the loan market which remains available to the club.

Ridsdale told Wales Online: "I don't expect any more players coming in. As far as anybody going out, that is out of my control. If anybody comes in with a bid which matches our valuation of a player we would consider that. But, if I was a betting man, I would think the squad at Doncaster will be the same as that for the match against Newcastle."
