Warm 'welcome' for Nigel Clouch

Neil Warnock was not best pleased when Nigel Clough turned up at his Crystal Palace patch earlier this season, bemoaning the refusal of two "stonewall" penalties and rebuking the Derby boss: "Nigel sometimes gets a bit carried away — like I do!"

So it will be interesting to see how Warnock, now in charge of Queens Park Rangers, treats Clough tonight when Derby come calling.

Warnock has named Antonio German on the bench despite his equaliser against Swansea but the young striker said: "I'm willing to bide my time."
