MaltRam Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 I had a moment the other week when I used the exact same term about Warnock. He's been at it too long to hate him any more, and his Cardiff team have been shafted once too often not to have sympathy, especially after the Sala thing. Neil Warnock IS a national treasure, I hope he stays on at Cardiff and gets them back up again. GboroRam and Alph 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronnieronalde Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 You've got to love him really. The bloke clearly is capable of throwing some massive wobblers and he occasionally (ahem) uses colourful language but for pure value for money you can't beat him. The cameraman was focussing on him for a reason, he got a reaction. Maybe not the one he expected. They're going down, he's gutted and you've got someone standing two metres away focussing on your face. Feck off and leave me alone to get on with the game. I'm just surprised he restrained himself from giving the lad a little nudge backwards. I think he'll retire now. Can't see him having the fight to grind it out at Championship level again.

Mucker1884 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Not convinced he's the sort to retire. Wouldn't surprise me if "he's the sort to go whilst stood on the touchline, or at the training ground"... but not for a good while yet, I'd hope. I'm more than happy to slag him off or laugh at him in the public domain... after all it's our duty, as fans of opposing teams... but deep down, I like him a lot (as I do Mick McCarthy, who comes from a similar mould, imo). Football needs characters, and he's certainly that! RadioactiveWaste, DarkFruitsRam7 and mozza 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a pantomime villain, a master bater and the end of a bell, but, he is not one of football's truly "bad" people or aspects. mozza 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewe Ram Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 I think you’re all romanticising him waaay too much. He’s a grade one ...... (that thing in his anagram). There’s a few things that are intolerable in a man and one is being mardy. He’s the king of it Anon and RadioactiveWaste 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t take him seriously, bit like one of those Marvel films I guess, suspend your disbelief RadioactiveWaste 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derbados Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Got no problems with him, says things as he’s sees them wether right or wrong. He’s a master of the dark arts of management and is as seasoned a manager as they come. Blokes got 8 promotions, he knows what he’s doing and is very good at it.

He’s the king of it He seems like a great guy away from the football pitch, but he has repeatedly crossed the line in his managerial career. Several opposition coaches have complained about him literally instructing his players to break opponents legs from the touchline. He was in charge of the disgraceful Sheff U team at the infamous battle of Bramall Lane and he instructed players to feign injury to get the fixture abbandonned.

I'm 6ft 3" and can't find trousers that fit me, but at least I can get in Warnock's team, just the way it is, genetics I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
