Neil Warnock ~ What a W**ker!

Warnock hits out at rival bosses

Sheffield Utd boss Neil Warnock was left bitter after relegation
Neil Warnock lashed out at officials and rival managers Sir Alex Ferguson and Rafael Benitez after defeat against Wigan relegated Sheffield United.
The Blades' boss said after the 2-1 reverse: "You look at Sir Alex and Rafa selecting weakened teams like they did and you do feel a little bit bitter.

"But what goes around comes around and maybe Chelsea will win the FA Cup and AC Milan the Champions League.

"It is a gut-wrenching and horrible feeling for all of us at the club."

Warnock added: "You think about people like referees like Rob Styles at times like this. What will he be feeling tonight after we've gone down? It won't hurt referees.

"I though Sir Alex would be playing a strong team, and just to see them celebrating the title after losing to West Ham leaves a bitter taste.

"But Sir Alex has his own reasons and obviously the Cup final was more important to him.

"It is the worst feeling of my career because it would have been my greatest achievement to keep us up.

"All season we have not made it difficult enough for other teams and given goals away when we have been in good positions.

"They haven't had to work hard for either goal today and we have committed suicide really. The lads have been magnificent and tried their hardest and I couldn't have got much more out of them.

"But it is still very disappointing when you go down because of the thickness of a post."

Warnock refused to be drawn on his own future amid claims that contract talks had broken down.

He said: "I don't want to talk about myself. It is a time for the club to look at what's gone on and then think about me later."


What an absolute bitter ****** :whatever:

Hello.... If your team weren't so ****, you'd still be in the Prem :whatever:

Oh well - gave me a laugh, anyway

Good riddance to a shower of ****e

That's not actually what he said to be fair.

Anyway he's entitled to his opinion even if it pisses everybody off.

Nobody's challenging his right to have an opinion though are they? Just saying that his opinion is a pile of ****e.

It sure is but he's bitter and that's understandable. Haven't you been bitter ?

Put it this way, it's one thing to express bitter views as a fan, and quite another to be bitter and moan about things all the ****ing time like a total hypocrite, and to do so on a public platform in a supposedly professional capacity.

Yes but it's Warnock's style and always has been. You couldn't change him now as he's close to 60. So I'd say, take what he says with a pinch of salt.

[dww]

That's not actually what he said to be fair.

I'm fairly sure it is what he said in one of the interviews they had with him on 5Live after the match. They had him on live and that was certainly what I thought he said, but they have run a different and in general better interview on later segments.

I absolutely hate this misnomer that clubs have an obligation to play their strongest possible sides, using the excuse that it's not fair otherwise.

It's nonsense quite frankly. Demento and Rafa are only responsible for their own teams. They don't care about the relegation fight and why should they? What if we went to Fulham and had 10 players missing for one reason or another (suspension and injuries), instead of choosing not to use players who were fit - which is what happened - would it still be unfair then?

Fact is if Sheffield United had beaten a poor Wigan side at home they would've stayed up. That failure has nothing to do with any other club than themselves.

[-V-]

Good riddance. Delighted to see them go down. Hate that guy

Instead of bothering about everyone else he should have made sure his own team picked up points

Before crucifying him, people should bare in mind his team has just been relegated in the cruelest of circumstances, he's a lifelong sheff utd fan, we all say some things on here if we're beat and we may look back a day or two later we were a bit out of order there and it was heat of the moment stuff.
Maybe same will apply to Warnock.

I have to say I think you make a very good point.

I actually seen Marky's post before yours and had exactly the same thoughts.
