    Just reading Warnocks Autobiography...

    "Made In Sheffied".
    Bought in off ebay last week.

    Some interesting stuff in there, it was written about 3 years ago before he went to Palace.
    Christ, he had a tough childhood. Sick mum who died very young, borderline abused as a kid by a couple of local *****s, freezing outside toilets, gravel for breakfast, snowballs for desert, all the usual "tough northern upbringing" stuff.
    But it's a real insight into his morals and approach to football.

    He's a good man, who knows that he is a moany old f**ker, but does it all for the good of his players and his fans. A bit like Fergie, in a way.
    Some really good stories in there, and worth a read for anyone who is interested in how he does his job, and why.

    Anyone who wants to have it after I've done with it, maybe just make a £5 donation to the Tiger Cubs Walk:
    Help James Doe raise money to support QPR in the Community Trust

    PM me, first come, first served.

    I'll send it to the first person to make a £5 donation, and you should have it next week. It's a hardback copy.

    Cheers.

          Was leant this by a mate just after NW joined us. Top read and clearly a man of principles who doesn't stand for any nonsense in the dressing room / boardroom. Can't see anymore episodes of player power while NW is in charge.

            I've got a signed copy - he did it at Harlington for me.

            He mentions the destruction of Paul Hart after a bad loss.

            Ironic, seeing as this was written years before either of them came to Loftus Road.

              Marcus Bent started in Warnocks first ever Sheffield United team, 11 years ago.
              As did George Santos.

                I have now seen of few vidioes of him on SkySports and I think he comes across as a very sympatetic and charismatic guy. Very old school as you english say. Exatly what we need at the moment. I bet the guys in the squad will experience aa father type of figure AND a tough coach at the same time. I did enjoy his comments on those videos and I am looking forward to see and hear more of witty comments.

                Bottomline; I look forward to read this book. Must be a good read.


                Opps. I cant really understand why he hasent got more offers from prem. team? Is it his reputation as a one visioned(my words) manager when it comes to style of play that prevent them?

                Maybe some of you can??
