I didnt think what he said was that bad. Just more whinging
Monk wasn’t sacked for on field issues thoughMonk was sacked straight after a win at Sheff Wed i seem to remember (although the circumstances were different)
Southgate was sacked after a home win over Derby with falling attendances given as one of the reasons
Well possibly.
But Warnock doesn't strike me as the type to cover for anyone and to be fair, why should he?
Bausor has been at the club a long time now. Gibbo isn't really hands on so Bausor sets the budgets and does the transfer negotiations.So he was having a go at the CEO then.
I actually think the opposite, but each to his own.
Well he was happy enough to throw them under the bus with his "they're recommending players who can't defend but I could tell after 2 mins watching the video they were ****" comments so would seem strange he'd lie to protect them after that.
Still, bit of a head scratcher why they wouldn't be fully supportive of him.
But they should still do the job they are paid for which is recommend the right players in for the club regardless of whether they like the manager or not. They've been underperforming for years and needed a kick up the backside.
To be fair I did mention this earlier about the press continuing to give him a free pass, but you put it better than I didJust thinking about this. This thread has reached 6 pages now and all everyone is doing is talking about recruitment. Not the lack of cohesion in our play, the lack of a style or system almost 18 months into a job, the fact our second half record is absolutely appalling, the lack of interest in keeping the ball, the poor results, the appalling way last season ended, Warnock using Mendez-Laing and building his fitness for, well, nobody quite knows, the poor set pieces, the fact he wrote the season off when we were chasing the top six when there was a third of it left to play and he’d just signed four of ‘his’ players, the fact we got worse the more resources he was given, the snide comments about club staff and throwing playing personnel under the bus when he was just as culpable if not more so… the abuse of officials, the moaning, the ‘keeper smacking it up the pitch to nobody, the fact he moaned about not having a target man and then got one and left him on the bench, the midfielders at wing back defenders sit on the bench and wing backs play for other clubs, the countless times our ‘man-for-man’ system ended up with opposition players being unmarked and doing damage, the gaping holes through the middle of the team… the fact some players appeared untouchable regardless of form while others were criticised…
Nobody is talking about the real reasons he’s gone. The results weren’t good enough. He had us near the playoffs and it fell apart after he made his signings. This season we’re struggling. He’s had two dozen new players in just under 18 months. He had access to all of that funding, the enviable training facilities and the ridiculous productive youth academy. He had all of that and he leaves us in 14th place, moaning about how others are at fault. It’s b*llocks, IMO. Smoke and mirrors. He’ll read this thread and love that everyone is talking about Bausor and Scott and not him. Exactly as he likes it, as he planned it, and as I’m sure we’ll hear lots more about on Talksport and the like in the coming weeks.
Yup, 100% this.Just thinking about this. This thread has reached 6 pages now and all everyone is doing is talking about recruitment.

That is a very good post by Viv I wouldn't beat yourself up over it YearbyYup, 100% this.
Instead of contributing to the 6 pages of semantics at who Warnock was having a dig at in his interview I wish I’d posted something as good as this.
I’m not, just wish I’d written something as good as that. Superb post.That is a very good post by Viv I wouldn't beat yourself up over it Yearby
I agree that it is better Neil leaves now rather than things drag on to season end.Just thinking about this.

I imagine Scott has recommended the next manager and the incoming manager knows the role Scott will play and accepted it.re: Scott. If he doesn't have final say on managerial appointments and player recruitment he absolutely should have and if not he's in the wrong job.
This departure was always on the cards as soon as Scott arrived. More so the fact it was generally accepted the incumbent was only going to be here for 12 months.
It's like any other job, the new guy at the top of the tree wants his own people and will eventually get them. I assume Gibson insisted Warnock gets his record then he's off.
Whilst I have massive respect for the job Warnock has done this is the most excited I've been about the future of our club since Karanka was appointed.
At last, a strategy.

Yes, he’s probably behind it allBausor's permanent smirk will be glistening more than usual tonight.
