Did Warnock salute the wrong end ?

[paulmason]

When he was introduced to the crowd, he clapped and waved etc but really made an effort to West Brom fans in the away and punched his fist in the air while facing them, then went to sit in the dugout ?

Does he have a spat with West Brom fans and was winding them up or was it a mistake. PS: Cant wait to see if he can gets the team kicking on again tomorrow.

looked that way to me from tv pics i see,lolleast he went to the right dugout unlike atkinson did once.

[luke_qpr832]

he did get a bit of stick from then during the 2nd half.started singing a song about him although you could hardly hear it.he has a spat with every club doesnt lol

so glad he is our manager now.was so nice to see a bit of passion on the touchline and in the team.

He definately was taunting them. There was the battle of Bramall Lane a few years back. Sheff Utd had three players sent off and then after using all their subs were reduced to seven men due to an injuriy. They then got another 'injury', and were reduced to six men, thus forcing the game to be abandoned with West Borm winning.
So Neil is not their favourite person.

Why the inverted commas for 'injury'? Neither of those two players played again that season due to the injuries sustained.

No he was just saying hi to the Albion fans

Did n't realise that. It was widely assumed at the time Warnock was pulling a fast one.
