One Boro ITK claims Neil is off

There are reasons for that though...as I've explained. It's not like he's lost the dressing room or his team selections or substitutions are unfathomable. He just doesn't have any options...He realistically only had a couple of changes from the bench v Hull in Uche and Jones that could influence the game.
When games come thick and fast you need to be able to change things a bit...he simply can't.

Nobby, excuses, excuses. Sick and fed up of it being everyone’s fault - apart from him. The Sheffield Utd is looking more and more like a freak result in comparison to a number of other performances and results witnessed. A lot can see it - you can’t

I'm as disappointed as the next guy but you have to throw Warnock a bit of slack. I bet he would have loved to have signed Ronaldo who has hit the ground running for Man Utd but he's out of our league...

Come on Rico it's hardly the same.....My point is we couldn't afford Mowatt and had to sell Morsy. We've been left with Lea Siliki in cente mid who isn't yet ready....it's a long term plan !

Beat Peterborough and Barnsley and we are right back in it. It's going to be difficult though as it looks like 9/20 of his outfield players will be unavailable. I don't see how you can just brush that statistic off as an excuse ?

I base my opinion on results and performances to date. How can you say with any confidence we will beat Posh and Barnsley? You can’t. As such any comments you offer regarding possible points from those 2 games is pointless- possibly that may be our points haul

Take 9/20 outfield players out of any football squad with 2 games in 5 days and they will find it extremely difficult. Liverpool if you like, cross out half of Klopps players and see how they get on....

Totally agree. It was Warnock being put out that we were identifying players he didn’t know about/want and trying to get one over on the recruitment team. Also gives him a nice little anecdote for Talk Sport - I can hear it now “they were spending £6m on South American’s and I was forced to look at non league”.

I don’t understand why Warnock decided to stay as he’s clearly been very unhappy at that set up.

I guess Warnock likes money, don't we all? He'll be on a good salary and probably got a hefty bonus for keeping us up too. Whatever happens he'll be crying all the way to the bank.

One game seems to be enough to decide he should go...Hull City ! Away game in appalling conditions, injury problems, centre half goes off injured and we concede a fluke goal....
I just don't think those set of circumstances warrant the sack 👍

What about the games against QPR? Derby? Blackpool? Coventry? No excuses for those games we were shocking
What about 12 wins in 2021?

O yeah I bet the Hull manager would love to sign players like Lea Silki. For what it's worth he's a Cameroon International who was playing in champions League last year and be on more wages than Morsy. However warnocks tactics don't bring the best out of them

How can you be certain?
Warnock was willing to have a space on the bench just to make a point.

I can’t be certain. I’m referencing a source that has direct information from Warnock and the club. How can you be certain he would risk the sack and leave fit players at home just to make a point? It certainly wouldn’t be good for team morale if the players felt he could turn on them like that after a few weeks training.

As bad as it was under Woodgate there were signs that we were capable of being a good team. The first half vs Brentford at home (might have been first home game of the season), the Hull home game before Johnson was sent off, and then there was the wins away at Preston and WBA. I agree not a lot to go on, and it wasn’t anywhere near enough to warrant him keeping his job, in fact the bad far outweighed the good many times over, but to say there were zero signs is not true.

Also Woodgate was half a season into a managerial career.

I'm personally seeing no signs of improvement under Warnock, and believe we are going backwards, and he's a experienced manager who many fans are happy to make excuse after excuse for, whereas the first signs of trouble under Woodgate they wanted him out.

I honestly don't understand the fascination to have a bloke who is performing so poorly at his job, delivering relegationesque form and will not take any blame for his own shortcomings in charge of this club. I honestly think it's like some teenage girl crush on a popstar from some posters, where they're blind to any evidence and will look to defend him no matter what.

Remind me how many games we have had to play with the extensive list of injuries you cite? To the best of my knowledge we haven’t had to do so.

Really makes you look a bit daft when you continue to put this up as an excuse - without a single game played. You are a plonker, Nobby!
