Cardiff retract race allegation

Last updated : 19 October 2009 By Palace Reporter
Palace issued an official statement denying any wrong-doing from a Palace player at Ninian Park. The FA and FAW were staring to get involved but this afternoon Cardiff have said they are not persuing the matter.

One of two reasons in my opinion, 1, no witnesss - just one mans word against another or hopefully 2, because it didn't happen.

Neil Warnock is still fuming at the initial allegations.

"They have withdrawn everything now and I am not really surprised in the slightest," he said.

"There is no way any of my players would make racist comments, I would never allow it and they know that.

"We are very pleased Cardiff have withdrawn the allegations but still disappointed and angry that they came out in the first place.

"It angers me personally me when things come out like that.

"Nothing would have come out had they beaten us 4-0."
