Jones poised to strengthen Cardiff

CARDIFF manager Dave Jones expects a flurry of transfer activity in the coming days after his thread bare squad were held to a 1-1 draw by Sheffield United yesterday.

A transfer embargo at the club was only lifted on Friday and Jones was able to name just four substitutes against the Blades.

Ched Evans put Kevin Blackwell’s side ahead but the visitors were reduced to 10 men when full-back Matthew Lowton was shown a straight red card for a high challenge on Kevin McNaughton.
