BS4 on Tour... Posted September 18, 2023 Report Share Posted September 18, 2023 Legendary manager - record number of promotions on his CV that probably won’t be surpassed - incredible ability - eg, took over as Cardiff manager when they were in the relegation places in the championship - took them to a top ten finish that season then promoted them to the premier league the season after. Anyone who doubts his ability in the championship clearly doesn’t know what it takes ... I’ve always said, he ain’t a premier league manager, but if you want to get there, employ him ... Lansdown’s apparently petty dislike of him may well have cost us serious progress - make no mistake, Neil Warnock is a born winner, and the most successful manager ever, in terms of promotions ... 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted September 18, 2023 Report Share Posted September 18, 2023 (edited) He did an impressive job at Cardiff and has been a strong manager, great at this level but they were still in receipt of Year 3, and latterly 4th and final year of Parachute Payments when he was there. These were lower then but that made a poor situation still able to be salvaged. Think Huddersfield are making a mistake though but it's the new owners prerogative.

Curr Avon Posted September 19, 2023 Report Share Posted September 19, 2023 Just read the Huddersfield owners take, https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/sport/football/news/kevin-nagle-neil-warnock-departure-27741008?int_source=amp_continue_reading&int_medium=amp&int_campaign=continue_reading_button#google_vignette Love him or hate him, Warnock has been a superb manager and thoroughly deserves his Huddersfield send off. Compare this to the plight of Watford managerial appointees, who on day one receive a special app with a countdown clock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nongazeuse Posted September 20, 2023 Report Share Posted September 20, 2023 He's a proper football man and knows how to get the most out of players. Sometimes with infuriating results when playing against his teams but you have say that he is one of the game's characters and I will miss his antics. Happy retirement Colin. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a real basket case bet on Cheltenham. They haven’t scored a league goal this season. With his record of developing tough defensive teams he could try to help them survive by drawing all the remaining matches 0-0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He lives in Looe, the fans love him and it would help Schumacher out no end. He`d probably do it for peanuts too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Posted February 4 Report Share Posted February 4 Expected to be named new Aberdeen boss. That's a long way from home! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sglosbcfc Posted February 4 Report Share Posted February 4 Aberdeen fans genuinely excited about his appointment. His first game....the small matter of Rangers at Ibrox on Tuesday night. I wouldn't put it past him getting the Dons a top 4 finish and winning the Scottish Cup. If he achieved that he'd have the job longer term if he wanted it.

However, I am guessing that the drive from Greenock (close to Glasgow) to Aberdeen is 3 hours. I'm sure it is a short flight from Glasgow airport to Aberdeen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcfcredandwhite Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 (edited) Saw a very brief interview on SSN - he said he has never won a cup in his managerial career. I find that surprising. He is going all out for the cup games in particular. Hardly any point in contesting Celtic and Rangers in the league - play the reserves against them!!!

22A Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 On 18/09/2023 at 13:16, The Coach said: Also wants to keep going in management. Keeps him going and feeling young. Believe come February there will be offers on the table And so there is! Please look forward two more months and tell us which horse will win the Grand National. Give NW his due though. He stated the transfer window is shut so he'll just have work with what he's got. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
