Fagan Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Warnock has brief moment of endearment Sheffield United boss Neil Warnock might not be everyone's favourite opposition manager but the outspoken Blades boss has spoken with pride about the time he became a passionate Liverpool supporter for one night only. While Liverpool were reeling from a nightmare first-half against AC Milan in Turkey, Warnock - who grew up supporting the club he now manages - was watching the final on TV while on holiday in Greece. "They say you always remember where you were when Kennedy was shot," claims Warnock, who insists he has a nice bottle of red wine waiting for Rafael Benitez in his office at Bramall Lane. "Well, I remember where I was when Liverpool were 3-0 down to AC Milan in the Champions League Final. I was on holiday in Greece in a place full of Italians. "I remember thinking whether I should go to bed because the Italians were taking the p*** out of me. But I thought I would stop and I was the only Englishman to last into the second-half! "Then the first goal from 25 yards. Did I cheer? I bloody did. I ran round the room. By the third one, even the Italians were giving me high-fives. It was a brilliant night."
Andy @ Allerton Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Fair play to the lad - a lost of my dislike for him has magically vanished

Tosh Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Same game as John Toshack where we scored three goals in 18 minutes I put it down to the condition known as "manager blindness"

And that will be the last time I'll say that about something Neil Warnock says this season.
John Nada Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Why did that d****ead have to go and say something like that to make me dislike him less on today of all days!?!?! *Imagines Henchoz spitting at him* That's better!
Cobs Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Michael Howard, given the opportunity, will wax lyrical about that night in Istanbul.... and he's still a massive cn*t. don't be fooled.
Guest Dirk Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 He didn't like us, he liked the fact that we gave him the opportunity to take the pi$$ out of the Italians after they'd been taking the pi$$ out of him.
Guest AnfieldGrass Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 a lost of my dislike for him has magically vanished temporarily only, I hope.
Andy @ Allerton Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 temporarily only, I hope. It's back again now
Gomez Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 He's a c**t, and his team are going down if today's tactics are anything to go by. He'll get more red cards than points if they keep that up.
Morse Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 I don't know why he is despised to be honest. I lot of his "ranting" seems justified when I have watched his games. I thought he had reason to kick off again today, but he took the penalty like a man. Fair play to him. I like the man and always have.
owenthomas Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 don't be fooled by any kind words - he's a prick..
Morse Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 don't be fooled by any kind words - he's a prick.. Why?
Sir Tokyo Sexwale Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 remember the league cup a fwe years ago? He's a total c***
Morse Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 remember the league cup a fwe years ago? He's a total c*** Well I like him. Always have. He is a football man. Manager at the club he supports...passionate about his team. Imagine Carragher as Liverpool manager...there you go. He rants and raves but usually he has a point. He did again today but kept himself calm. I like Warnock.

muleskinner Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Radio 5 reporting that the comments attributed to Fowler and Carra by Warnock are a complete fabrication and denied completely by Liverpool.
Andy @ Allerton Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 Radio 5 reporting that the comments attributed to Fowler and Carra by Warnock are a complete fabrication and denied completely by Liverpool. What comments?
muleskinner Posted August 19, 2006 Posted August 19, 2006 What comments? "Even Robbie Fowler said it was never a penalty and Carragher said he would have been gutted if it was awarded against them"
