No to Warnock brigade

Sat Apr 05, 2025 9:28 pm

Just wondering how many of the people who were definitively No to Warnock a couple of months ago……are reassessing now? Couldn’t be worse surely!

Nope, I haven't. That's my opinion not just because of his football management but other stuff too, as I've said before.

But focusing on his management, people remember the Warnock who took us to the Premier League. They forget how badly he prepared us for the following season after relegation.

They forget how he wasted the talents of players like Bobby Decordova-Reid.

And they forget that he failed at Middlesbrough and left Aberdeen early for some reason.


Besides, there are better people to turn to than a 76 year old.

Ned we know there's better coaches to turnto than warnock but can any of them turn this team enough to win one game never mind 3 in such a short time ? Personally don't want him back but prefer gamble on him than riza at this present time.... do anyone think riza will save us from relegation ? Seriously doubt it.

I would take him if he was available, but the board don’t seem to care . If only we had fans on the board somehow . We are powerless to this killing of our club by a bunch of cunts that hardly attend games .

Totally agree I used to be a fan of warnock got nothing against him personally we should have had him 15 years earlier but wouldn’t want him back when

I would have him back in an instant - couldn't think of a better man to get us over the line during these last 6 games.

It’s disgraceful behaviour from them shows us fans we are hated by the board and don’t matter. Anyone of us would do a better job than fking Riza and we would do it for free because we care.

NW would have been superb to drop in for the run in as it would have given us the best chance of survival. That's what should have happened a while back as a short term tactic. Then it's over to the Three Stooges to sort things out properly for the summer and long term. And we all know that's never going to happen unless there's a step change in VTs "strategy".

No I wouldn’t.

I’m not going to repeat what Ned has said, it’s all a few posts up.

What I will add however, is this squad is nowhere even similar to the squads that Warnock has had success with.

There seems to be a lot of people believing that a 76 year old Warnock would come in here and all of a sudden we will be guaranteed to avoid relegation.

There is no proof at all that he would be able to turn this team around at all, let alone with such a short amount of time to do so

Think people's perception is riza will take us down as don't expect to win 3 games... but given warnocks history he's only one who's got a chance to do so.....
Bit late for people to say should tried Warnock after relegation.....

Re: No to Warnock brigade

Sat Apr 12, 2025 4:47 pm

Agreed there is no proof NW would definitely do the job…..what there is however, is proof that Riza is 100% not a Championship manager and possibly not a Manager full stop!
So glad we did what you wanted and stuck with him!

Warnock is the man, we have absolutely nothing to lose. This is set up perfectly for Warnock to firefight and save us.
I wouldn't want him long term, just this season. I doubt he'd want to stay long term at his age anyway

Nobody is saving us this season, the fixtures are too tough.

Have to think about a manager who can prepare us well in League One, that's not Warnock and it's certainly not Riza.

Of course, for most of the season you insisted that Riza would keep us up, in fact at one stage you stated that he could take us to the premier league?? Warnock would have had this squad fired up week in, week out and by now know where near the bottom 3. He would then have vanished into the mist in the summer.

Says who?

He didn’t have the squads fired up week in week out in his two previous roles, did he?

Do you seriously think that if Warnock had got the last 12 games with these losers that he wouldn't have got at least another 6 points.??

Riza is irrelevant in this conversation, because we're talking about possible replacements.

I wouldn't want Warnock back for very strong moral reasons.
