Title: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: pewshamrobin on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 18:42:48 Seems harsh.... dont like the guy but harshly treated after getting them up
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Processed Beats on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 18:44:50 Ridiculous decision.
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Nemo on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 18:45:11 Warnock is the classic example of a manager who keeps taking teams up but not keeping them up though. Should have sacked him the moment promotion was confirmed if they fancied being completely ruthless.
Also, no Warnock thread is complete without the mention of Colin Wanker, so I'll get that in early. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Arriba on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 18:46:10 he divides opinions. I like him
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: THE FLASH on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 18:46:42 Hope he got a big payoff!
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Peter Venkman on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 18:47:54 Very harsh, they got a good battling result yesterday at the plastics.
Still its been on the cards all season. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: LucienSanchez on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 18:49:01 I like Warnock, they've had some decent results too. Wonder if they have a replacement lined up?
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: pewshamrobin on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 18:49:41 Mark Hughes is early bookies favourite.... out of work since Fulham
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: chalkies_shorts on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 18:51:15 he divides opinions. I like him I think he's a cunt. Remember Notts Co coming down midweek a lot of years ago and stank rthe place out ( but won ) and the CG givinh him loads. He said at the time it was the worst he ever got. I'm sure he's had a lot worse since and bloody well deserved. Him and Barton were made for each other. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Batch on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 18:52:06 Not a massive surprise. QPR have a shed load of money and no doubt want a manager the would be perceived as taking them forward and attracting good players.
Harsh on him as he's done a good job. Not sure Mark Hughes is the man to fit the bill though. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: leefer on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 18:59:42 I like Warnock, they've had some decent results too. Wonder if they have a replacement lined up? A promising Italian from LG2. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: woolster on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:08:11 good, the bloke does nothing but moan about refs decisions, fucking bores me :bye:
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Langers on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:14:22 Very harsh. Thought he had done a decent job there.
Mark Hughes would be a pretty uninspiring appointment. I wouldn't be too happy if I was a QPR fan. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Ginginho on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:29:45 I like Warnock, I hope QPR get relegated, ungrateful bastards, don't like them and hate Joey Barton with a passion.
He is a great Championship manager, will get someone promoted again to the Premier League, i'm sure. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: fittons_coaching_badge on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:38:40 A mate said to me at lunchtime that Warnock was going to get the sack and they were looking at PDC .... I laughed at him .....
Please tell me this isnt going to happen???? Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Only Me on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:39:30 A mate said to me at lunchtime that Warnock was going to get the sack and they were looking at PDC .... I laughed at him ..... Please tell me this isnt going to happen???? No chance Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Arriba on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:43:19 I don't think Di canio would go even if they did want him. The man has a job to do here and is a man of honour who wears his heart on his sleeve. He has been given a chance here and he knows that.
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: SBanker on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:44:20 I heard a rumour yesterday that Warnock was going, the bloke that told me said PDC was being lined up??
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Dozno9 on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:44:57 If PDC goes to QPR then I'll eat my own cock.

Hmm first post :hmmm: Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:50:29 Someone registers with 1 post and tells us that. Very reliable then....
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: SBanker on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:51:30 Just telling you what I heard. I couldn't care if it sounds dodgy to you or not, he's not going on my say so is he?
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Stef Troll on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:51:36 Warnock is a shit manager.
Get Mark Hughes in and QPR will be a top 8 club next season Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Batch on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:52:07 PDC = still learning and still massive risk.
No chance. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Only Me on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:52:35 I don't think Di canio would go even if they did want him. The man has a job to do here and is a man of honour who wears his heart on his sleeve. He has been given a chance here and he knows that. And he needs to get that Swindon tatoo before he leaves :D Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Only Me on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:53:07 Warnock is a shit manager. Get Mark Hughes in and QPR will be a top 8 club next season Looks like Mark Hughes is the favourite for the job. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: ghanimah on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:56:42 If PDC goes to QPR then I'll eat my own cock. A quick snack? Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: chalkies_shorts on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 19:58:21 PdC would not last 5 minutes at QPR.
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Dozno9 on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 20:00:05 Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Summerof69 on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 20:46:38 The new owner at QPR is a West Ham fan. He tried to buy them twice in recent years.
He might want PdC as manager, but I don't think Paolo will be interested as he'll think it's too early for him. He wants to manage in the lower leagues first to learn his trade. One think I do know that there is a large compensation fee in PdC's contract, which Wray put in, in case there was an approach from another club. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Ralphy on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 20:48:33 I'd cry if Paolo left.
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Peter Venkman on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 20:50:00 Zero chance that any club will take a risk on PdC currently, well not one vying for their lives in the Premier League anyway.
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: König on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 20:51:46 plus Paolo has got a unique opportunity here to completely rebuild a club from the bottom and make us something great, if he went to QPR now, or anywhere else, he'd be left with all their players who might not buy into his ethos. I think he'll be here for a good few years.
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: DMR on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 20:53:51 The new owner at QPR is a West Ham fan. He tried to buy them twice in recent years.

One think I do know that there is a large compensation fee in PdC's contract, which Wray put in, in case there was an approach from another club. You don't think he'd be interested? In a London based Premier League team? With money to spend? You sir are an idiot. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Dozno9 on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 20:53:58 Now, I may be naive but I belive that PdC has an affiliation with us over and above his contract size. Looking at the way he talks and treats his players he'd be pretty two faced to turn his back after 6 months in charge and I don't believe he's that kind of man.
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 20:56:25 Now, I may be naive but I belive that PdC has an affiliation with us over and above his contract size. Looking at the way he talks and treats his players he'd be pretty two faced to turn his back after 6 months in charge and I don't believe he's that kind of man. I agree completely.Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: DMR on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 20:56:40 You are naive.
You hear the same rhetoric in football all the time, it's hardly unique to PDC. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: phelpsieboy on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 20:58:11 Well QPR have already employed one "De" Canio :p
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Arriba on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 21:00:26 You don't think he'd be interested? In a London based Premier League team? With money to spend? You sir are an idiot. He comes across as loyal. If he did leave he would go from hero to zero and it would surprise me. He does appear different to the norm in that he is focussed on doing a job here and seeing it through. The emotion of the man and the work he puts in tells me alot about the guy. His commitment i think is the biggest of his qualities Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Dozno9 on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 21:01:42 You are naive. You hear the same rhetoric in football all the time, it's hardly unique to PDC. I do believe that there is something different in him than in others. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: DMR on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 21:03:07 If he's still here in 2 years having taking us up then you make a valid point.
How anyone can praise someones loyalty after 20 odd games is frankly astonishing. What's he proved? It's just words that you hear from any new manager. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Summerof69 on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 21:03:47 You don't think he'd be interested? In a London based Premier League team? With money to spend? You sir are an idiot. No need to get personal. I think PdC wants to finish the job he started here. Anyway, would you want to work with Joey Barton?!! Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Barry Scott on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 21:05:59 Di Canio vs Barton would be nice. Forgetting Di Canio vs the never lazy Taarabt.
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: fatbasher on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 21:09:13 Paolo, it's Paolo is more than a big fish in a small pond. He is in fact a sperm whale in coate water, except that Coate Water is a fresh water lake, however, mere details you know what I mean.
Why tarnish your fledgling and growing reputation by taking on a job in a club that will as likely as not be relegated and owned by a megalomaniac? He'll keep his powder dry and either take us all the way to at least the Championship building an empire around him where to be fair in that instance he'll be a demi god or he'll leave and get a top premier job when the timing's right and it won't be in the next few years the mans a great strategist and thinker. He could if he has the patience and the board the balls & money be a premiership manager with us in the fullness of time and in that capacity he would be to us what Sir Alex is to Man utd. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Costanza on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 21:20:27 I would never write off any manager ditching us at the first opportunity, especially to the top flight.
Do I think PDC is ready for Premier League management? Of course not. Do I think PDC would be interested if a team like QPR made an approach? Definitely. We're a nice starting point for PDC. At Swindon he can make mistakes and won't be in the spotlight all the time (at the the moment the media come and then go quite quickly). Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Dazzza on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 21:20:53 Even after this weekends cracking win I think a lot of people in the game still see Paolo as a bit of a novelty appointment and good headline maker, which suits us.
Can't see him being poached just yet but give it a few months and it will be a different kettle of fish. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Dozno9 on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 21:27:17 How anyone can praise someones loyalty after 20 odd games is frankly astonishing. What's he proved? It's just words that you hear from any new manager. I'm not praising his loyalty after 20 games though, I am referencing his potential to be loyal. I think he would be loyal (whatever that means in football terms) if QPR came in for him now (which they won't) because of his attitude and what he says. Although all we can go on is what people say isn't it until they prove otherwise. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Dozno9 on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 21:29:37 We're a nice starting point for PDC. He would follow a few young un-tested managers that have started at STFC. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: phelpsieboy on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 21:36:10 Quite alot of PLymouth fans seem to think Warnock is going to them........ JOG ON! :clap:

JOG ON! :clap: He plans to retire down to Devon. You never know. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Ginginho on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 22:09:07 Hughes is nailed on. To suggest that QPR would be even the slightest bit interested in a manager who is just 20 plus games into his managerial career is quite simply baffling
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Ninja Elephant on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 23:03:01 Hughes is nailed on. To suggest that QPR would be even the slightest bit interested in a manager who is just 20 plus games into his managerial career is quite simply baffling Amazing really isn't it. We had the same nonsense with Poyet. I'm not suprised Warnock got the chop, he was going to lead them valiantly to relegation on the last day. And then spend a few years bleating on about ineligible players or something. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Notts red on Sunday, January 8, 2012, 23:27:03 Paolo being linked to vacant managers jobs is something we will have to get used to if we continue to make headlines. The day will come when he moves on but it certainly won't be yet. I like Warnock and think he is a good manager who wont be out of a job for long.
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: sheepshagger on Monday, January 9, 2012, 00:46:24 You don't think he'd be interested? In a London based Premier League team? With money to spend? You sir are an idiot. I personally think your comments are out of order DRS PDC has done nothing in his career to suggest he throws in the towel or moves on at the first opportunity Since he has been here he has done nothing to suggest he will move on - in fact quite the opposite he has said Swindon are now family and part of his heart Yesterday (albeit in the heat of the moment) he clearly said it was the best day in his football career To suggest as you are that he would easily move on shows you have learned nothing about the character of the man (only my opinion of course....) Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Hammer on Monday, January 9, 2012, 01:55:09 He plans to retire down to Devon. You never know. So there we have it. Southend already have their next manager signed up. :D Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Hammer on Monday, January 9, 2012, 02:00:41 I personally think your comments are out of order DRS PDC has done nothing in his career to suggest he throws in the towel or moves on at the first opportunity Since he has been here he has done nothing to suggest he will move on - in fact quite the opposite he has said Swindon are now family and part of his heart Yesterday (albeit in the heat of the moment) he clearly said it was the best day in his football career To suggest as you are that he would easily move on shows you have learned nothing about the character of the man (only my opinion of course....) DMR, it's DMR. While you're here, tell us what you learned about the character of Wise and Sturrock.(I only want your opinion of course....) Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: sheepshagger on Monday, January 9, 2012, 08:36:18 Ha ha sorry DRS !!!
Hammer - I leaned that Wise was a stunted little cunt with no morals, and Sturrock was a bloke that would always fuck off as soon as Plymouth came calling Anything else you want to know ? Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Bewster on Monday, January 9, 2012, 13:01:32 For what it is worth I think that PDC is a different breed to a lot of managers. Yes we can't possibly judge his loyalty after twenty games but as others have said he preaches about loyalty, commitment and hard work and it would be a completely against these princples for him to go. I also think he would want to do his very best at a bigger club and to do that he has to learn.
Personally I believe we'll see a bit of a Macari repeat, a manager who will give it his best shot up to the point that he cannot do anymore - either restricted by size, money or lack of ambition. At which point he will go to West Ham. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Abrahammer on Monday, January 9, 2012, 13:56:04 At which point he will go to West Ham. I think he definately has more loyalty than the average manager but if West Ham come in for him during the summer, quite possible if they dont go up, he will be off like a shot. I wouldnt blame him either. Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Notts red on Monday, January 9, 2012, 14:10:45 Gary Johnson new Yeovil manager, Rovers won't be happy.
Title: Re: Warnock sacked tonite Post by: Bob's Orange on Monday, January 9, 2012, 14:12:06 Nobody has any idea about PDCs loyalty. This is his first managerial post and he hasn't yet had another offer. People are entitled to their own opinions, but really, we just don't know.
