City were stopped from signing Rotherham's Andy Monkhouse last week as Ronnie Moore was short of players. Monkhouse was an unused sub for the Millers in their FA Cup draw at Northampton.
It now appears that Monkhouse will join City next Monday, after Rotherham visit Ninian park on Saturday. Ronnie Moore is said not to have wanted the left winger playing against Rotherham on Saturday.
Cardiff showed an interest in the player last summer but would not pay Rotherham's asking price. With his contract running out at the end of the season it's a different story.
An initial loan period is most likely.
