Sheffield United gaffer Neil Warnock has hit out at his Chester City counterpart Ian Rush over the transfer of Chester defender Danny Collins to Sunderland yesterday.
Collins has signed a four-year contract with us, but it seems that the Blades were out-done in the bidding.
Warnock told the Blades’ official website, “He was one that we had an eye on – but we didn’t go too strong on him.
“We couldn’t agree terms and I’m not happy with how Chester have dealt with it – particularly Ian Rush announcing that we’d made a bid when they played against Sheffield Wednesday the other week.
“Chester have come out of it on top and got more money out of the deal – but I was a bit disappointed with how they acted.
“Sunderland have paid £140,000 and best of luck to them – he is up and coming and still a bit raw…he’s a centre-forward turned into a centre-half and he still has a lot to learn.”
