Jerome and Cooper out for Bluebirds trip

Cameron Jerome, the leading scorer for the Bluebirds will miss Cardiff City's trip to Deepdale this weekend through suspension. The top scorer who has netted ten times so far this season has picked up five bookings and his suspension will be served this Saturday at Deepdale.

Midfielder Kevin Cooper is also a doubt for the trip after undergoing knee surgery earlier this week. Welsh international, Jason Koumas who scored against North End at Ninian Park only a month ago is also thought to be a doubt after pulling out of the Wales squad for the midweek friendly international with a groin strain.
