Cardiff linked with Quashie-modo (his name rings a bell)

According to speculation in a couple of national newspapers, West Ham's Scottish international midfielder Nigel Quashie is due to join Cardiff City shortly ... or may be choosing between Sheffield United and ourselves ... or it may just be complete gibberish, who knows?


Quashie fits the bill that Dave Jones has with some signings. Injury problems, ageing with his best days behind him, a midfielder with an unimpressive scoring record and a player at last chance saloon.


The player, who will be 31 before the season starts, was loaned out to Wolves and Birmingham last season having managed just 7 starts in 2.5 years with West Ham United. At those Championship clubs, he had 11 outings but neither wanted to take him for this term as they start life in the Premiership.


I honestly didn't know he was still around and I guess you can tell that I'm distinctly unimpressed by him being linked to City but if he does come, here's hoping he flies.
