The Bluebirds have not won in the Championship since November 5 and are only two points clear of the relegation zone after defeat at Blackburn in the latest round of matches. They are also operating under a transfer embargo. Hudson was named caretaker-boss in September following the sacking of Steve Morison and was then given the role until the end of the campaign. He has won only four of his 16 games in charge, collecting 17 points in that period. Cardiff could look to tempt Neil Warnock out of retirement if their poor form continues Warnock, 74, announced his retirement last April after a managerial career spanning 41 years across 16 clubs. One of his finest achievements was leading Cardiff to the top flight during his first spell at the club from 2016-19. Cardiff face Leeds in the FA Cup on Sunday before a vital game against bottom-of-the-table Wigan at home on January 14. Mark Hudson has taken just four wins in 16 matches since he replaced Steve Morison That is followed by matches against Millwall and Luton, both of whom are pushing for the play-offs. Top scorer Callum Robinson appeared angry to be brought off during the defeat at Blackburn, with Hudson admitting he had apologised to his players afterwards for changing to a three-man defence at Ewood Park. He said: ‘We’ve had an honest conversation in there. I’m honest with them. They are honest with me. I’ve apologised. I’ve said with the change of shape, I thought we could create more but we didn’t, nothing glaring.’ Share or comment on this article: All rights reserved for this news site (dailymail) and under his responsibility
