BRISTOL86 Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Neil Warnock has won six of his 12 games as Rotherham manager Rotherham United boss Neil Warnock has said he believes he is the best manager in the Championship. The 67-year-old took charge of the Millers in February after Neil Redfearn was sacked and has guided them towards a position of safety. Warnock has been promoted to the top flight three times in his career. "I don't think there is anybody else who can touch me at this level. My record is as good as anybody's," he told BBC Radio Sheffield. "I have got to show the lads what I want and why I have been successful and they have got to come on board and they have done. "When I came here I said 'you know how old I am and you know how many games are left and I have not come here to get relegated'. They have taken it on board and they have seen that we can move mountains and it is possible to achieve the unachievable." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh if only, they might lose the four, but unfortunately I have no hope that MK or Charlton can hold up their end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS4 on Tour... Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Sounds like a positive interview on a local radio station, he's right, he has been very successful at this level. Everything he says publicly seems to generate a bit of hysteria on here. He has seven promotions on his CV, he is very successful and he is gonna keep Rotherham up.... And yes, I wanted him at our club, and I have done for many years, not just recently. But is there any need to jump on everything he says now?!

Guest Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 He's pretty much right. When you've achievements to be proud of why should he be ashamed? It's a very British trait that one must underplay their achievements in the pursuit of graciousness. He's got a great record which he has earned the right to be proud of.

Gary Johnson some 7 years younger has done 5 promotions and one Cup. He's done it with much more unfashionable teams, with less money and a whole world more dignity .

As many many ex League clubs can tell you, getting out of the Conference with next to no money is no easy feat and Gary's done it twice.

redapple Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 I'd recommend Warnock's Autobiography 'Made in Sheffield' to all Football fans . He's certainly not had it easy and has always been successful . He's got his own methods , he knows how to organise , he knows the characters he can work with and he knows how to motivate . He's not short in self-confidence , and not afraid to push the laws to the limit . His 'professional' personality is somewhat cultivated and very different to his private self . Love him or hate him, you always notice him . I can think of loads of games at Ashton Gate which blur into 'just another match' , but I remember clearly every single game when Warnock's sides have been the visitors .

It's still crass to come out and say it yourself. Much as I disliked Ferguson, you didn't often hear him blowing his own trumpet even though he was in a different league to most.

Marina's Rolls Royce Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 I think Colin's record speaks for itself. Which makes it all the more distasteful that he comes out with the self indulgent crap that he does. Like I said, it's about humility not who's better than who.

I thought that was out of order doing that. Like father like son.' Followed by: 'I can't say anything bad about anybody.' Followed by accusing BCFC of never providing hot showers in the away dressing room. My personal opinion is that he's an unpleasant man. It's a bit like Suarez- hugely talented but deeply unpleasant.
