NEIL WARNOCK:
“My wife says ‘why don’t you get the sack like that?’
Asked about Fulham sacking manager Claudio Ranieri after just 106 days in charge, Warnock says:
“My wife says ‘why don’t you get the sack like that?’
“I say it’s one of those things! The job is so difficult now and the owners decide if they want to change the manager.
“The lifespan of a manager now is relatively low in comparison.
“You used to say you want to build for the future but now you just build for next month.
“I look with envy at what teams have spent, but we’ve spent far less and just look at Fulham. When I call it a day I’ll miss some of the pressure.
“It’d be different for me if the fans were chanting ‘you don’t know what you’re doing’ - when that happens that’d be me done, so I’m grateful that we’ve got a fantastic support.
“Their love and devotion is the reason I’m still managing.
“I know they’ll be going up that motorway on Saturday expecting a performance.”
