Warnock in West Ham Claim

Neil Warnock in his rant against Middlesbrough fielding a weakened team against Man City also claims that they may do the same against West Ham. Boro left out Woodgate, Arca and Viduka against City and Warnock says,

"They play West Ham on Saturday, that's another pal of his (Hammers boss Alan Curbishley) so they'll probably not bother there."

Unfortunately Boro's loss to Man Utd in the FA cup last night means they no longer need to rest players against West Ham. Warnock has also obviously forgotten his own comment on the 28th December,

"I don't really want to change too much, but squad rotation may come into it. I will have to be careful who I select against Arsenal and may even play a second XI."
