Hudson completes Cardiff move

Thu, 02 Jul 15:57:29 2009

Charlton boss Phil Parkinson is in the market for a centre-half after skipper Mark Hudson completed his move to Cardiff.

Hudson, 27, has joined the Bluebirds for an initial £1.075million just 12 months after arriving on a free transfer from Crystal Palace.

Parkinson said: "We wish Mark all the best. We've got to move on now and work hard to bring in a replacement."

Hudson made 43 appearances for the Addicks and scored three goals but could not prevent them from slipping into League One.

  1. getting a millon+ for a player who could not defend and­ was at fault for so many goals conceded throughout the­ season was good business in my book - (Sharon)Ambrose­ did not want to play for Charlton - he went missing so­ often in games - so well done for Parky for getting rid­ of both!!

  2. I totally agree about Ambrose and if we could get Ward­ he would be a great replacement for Hudson. Definately­ captain material.

  3. well said Graham, could not have put it better myself­ about those 2 players. there are a few more dead wood­ to get rid of and i would say that Warnock must have­ blinkers on when watching Ambrose. The lad became total­ dross and made it clear he did not want to play, Palace­ are welcome to him. bit of pay back for Hudson.

  4. no great loss in my opinion & really good business­ financially. If possible we should do everything­ possible to secure the services of Darren Ward to play­ alongside our new capture from MK Dons, thus ensuring a­ sound central defence which was 90% of the problem­ previously. Ward would also make an Excellent skipper­ having witnessed the difference he made to the­ youngsters on arrival on loan. I notice we have also­ managed to rid ourselves of another piece of dead wood­ to Palace, namely Ambrose. Neil Warnock says all he­ wants is for Ambrose to play with a smile on his face,­ that's good, because he rarely puts in a­ performance anyway, smiling or otherwise !!!
