Crystal Palace: Neil Warnock named as new manager

Crystal Palace have appointed former boss Neil Warnock as their new manager.
The 65-year-old, who was at Palace between 2007 and 2010, has signed a two-year deal after being chosen ahead of ex-West Brom boss Steve Clarke.
Palace chairman and co-owner Steve Parish has turned to Warnock as a successor to Tony Pulis after Malky Mackay was ruled out last week.
The London club are keen for caretaker manager Keith Millen to be integrated into the new set-up.
Warnock has been told he will have funds to spend before the transfer window closes on Monday.
Both he and Clarke were interviewed this week after Palace turned their back on Mackay, and Tim Sherwood pulled out of the running.
Pulis left on 14 August, just 48 hours before the new Premier League season.
Crystal Palace managers since Warnock left in 2010
Keith Millen (caretaker) 14 Aug - present
Curtis Fleming & Lennie Lawrence (caretakers) 24 Oct 2012 - 3 Nov 2013
Tony Pulis 24 Nov 2013 - 14 Aug 2014
Dougie Freedman 1 Jan 2011 - 24 Oct 2012
Keith Millen (caretaker) 23 Oct 2013 - 24 Nov 2013
George Burley 17 June 2010 - 1 Jan 2011
Ian Holloway 3 Nov 2012 - 23 Oct 2013
Paul Hart 2 Mar 2010 - 2 May 2010


Warnock has been out of work since parting company with Leeds in April 2013, although in March he turned down the opportunity to manage Nottingham Forest.
His return to Selhurst Park will see the colourful manager reunited with winger Jason Puncheon, who was fined £15,000 by the Football Association for comments on Twitter after taking exception to criticism from Warnock about a penalty miss against Tottenham.
Warnock's previous stint as Palace manager ended as the Eagles went into administration and suffered a subsequent 10-point deduction. The club dropped from Championship play-off contenders to a battle against relegation, which they narrowly avoided.
Former Stoke City boss Pulis won the Premier League's manager of the year award last season after guiding Palace from bottom of the table, the position they occupied when he took over from Ian Holloway in November 2013, to an 11th-placed finish.
But he became frustrated by the failure to land a number of summer transfer targets and left the club by mutual consent only 48 hours before the start of the new season.

Malky Mackay had been the favourite for the job until allegations emerged of misconduct during his time at Cardiff.
He has admitted sending offensive text messages, allegedly shared with Iain Moody, who worked as head of recruitment at Cardiff before being sacked in October and quit his role as Palace's sporting director last week after the claims emerged.
Under Millen, Palace have lost their opening two league matches, 2-1 at Arsenal and 3-1 at home to West Ham, but secured a 3-0 away win over Walsall in the Capital One Cup second round on Tuesday night.
In an unusual move, Warnock's appointment was officially confirmed first on the club sponsor's Twitter feed, prompting Palace communications officer Luke Tugby to tweet: "Before criticism comes the way of #cpfc comms team, the decision to have Neteller release before the club's own website is out of our hands."

I dont think so, championship manager.

Neil Warnock has been appointed Crystal Palace’s new manager, the club have announced.

The 65-year-old will return to Selhurst Park, where he managed between 2007 and 2010, as Tony Pulis’ replacement.

Warnock, who has not managed since leaving Leeds United in 2013, beat former West Brom head coach Steve Clarke to the job after the pair became the front runners to replace Pulis this week.

Both Warnock and Clarke were interviewed this week after Palace turned their back on Malky Mackay, and Tim Sherwood pulled out of the running.

Pulis left on 14 August, just 48 hours before the new Premier League season.

Thanks TopCat but hasn't Thomas blue just stated all that!?!

A desperate & highly risky appointment, Imho.

Happy for Warnock to get another shot at the Premier League. He's always said nice things about City so hope he does well for them.

Personally I would be concerned if I was a palace fan.
He's a nice enough guy I'd like to see him do well but he is a bit of a Womble

Desperate appointment.

Never was in the running until everyone else turned it down or was dropped out.

Think they'll struggle. Not a bad manager at all but not what Palave need right now.

Wonder how Jason Puncheon is feeling

They went from nearly appointing one tactical dinosaur to appointing... a tactical dinosaur

IMO a good appointmemt ..........would have liked to have seen Warnock at Cardiff
