Neil Warnock has hailed Clint Hill as Mr Reliable as the defender prepares to make his 100th appearance for Crystal Palace at Reading tomorrow night.

The left back joined the Eagles from Stoke City a little over two years ago and has missed just eight games in that time despite being troubled by injury during his stay with the Potters.

"Considering the amount of injuries he had before coming here he has done really well for us and is Mr Reliable," said Warnock.

"He is excellent on the training pitch and with the young kids."

Neil Danns is in line to make his 50th appearance for the club against Sheffield United on Saturday, almost two years since he signed from Birmingham City.
