Warnock being investigated?

Tue Dec 17, 2019 9:49 am

Got told up at Leeds that Warnock is being investigated by Tan for taking bribes on players coming in and players actually playing?
Anyone heard anything similar ?

He's been at this for years by all accounts. Rumored he named his swimming pool the Phil Jagielka pool after the bung he had for selling him

yes but its hardly news...
news is actually having a single shred of evidence ..
I very much doubt that these posters would say anything of the sort to who they are accusing.

Rumours rumours rumours .....people say they have heard this and that but never have the balls to confront Warnock as it has supposedly been going on for years....
People should deal in facts....and evidence....

I had the pleasure of meeting the man himself this evening as he was having a farewell dinner with the medical staff. I suspect he is not whiter than white, but which football manager is? All I know is that he transformed and united our club at a pretty desperate time for us and brought us a wholly unexpected bonus season in the premiership. With that in mind, I don't really care if he made a few quid on the side - lets face it, most of us would if we could get away with it. I think it was the right time for him to leave before his achievements here got sullied, and I wish him every success for the future whatever or wherever that may be.

Exactly. It's basically slander against a man that should have our respect.

not sure who is the bigger whopper here, the bloke that started this or you for repeating it...

Warnock was neither manager of Sheffield Utd or Everton in that deal... :o :o

it was reported that a final exit settlement had been agreed in early December.. that doesn't sound like him being investigated to me..

I agree with your positivity on what he achieved in uniting our club when we realy needed it.

Not sure about the other justifications. I'd imagine the pay of football managers is substantial enough that they don't need to go looking for more. Whole load of other reasons why it shouldn't happen. I'm sure Sir Neil has never taken a single penny he shouldn't have.

You're barking up the wrong tree; there was a perceived issue but it wasnt with Neil Warnock ;)

Warnock left Sheffield United after the Tevez affair relegation. Brian Robson was manager when Jagielka was sold..

Well if it was heard at Elland Rd AND the coach that makes all the difference. Must be true.

Doesn’t your man tan investigate every one after departure to save settlement payments ?

Although - very strange how he quit like that but praised the chairman when he quit coz the chairman had lined up a replacement

yes Tan does withhold settlement payments or at least that's what he has done previously. but this one is done and dusted..

as for Warnock ,he did say it was his last year and did add he would go xmas if we were not involved or if it soured , the 2 Derby defeats in close succession sort of brought it all to a head..?
Harris being installed as fav the same day and seemingly being the only name in the frame was strange though...
