Warnock's book is brilliant and I doubt enyone, ahvign read it, would not actually have an admiration for the guy.
The Becchio situation he talks of is the Jan transfer window just gone, right?
I don't mind Warnock. He's a bit of a rent-a-gob at times but he seems honest enough.

such fun and games. I remember Doug saying that he had agreed with another chairman (can't remember know) that they would both offer the exact same fee for Alan Thompson. Then when the other guy refused to budge he offered more and got him in. Cheeky devil that Doug!I may have a look at downloading this as well. Only trouble I just where do I look....

Only trouble I just where do I look....I think it was Ridsdale at Leeds. Doug and Ridsdale agreed on the same offer for Thomson and said they would not enter a bidding war and would simply let the player decide which offer he would accept.Doug then went back with an extra 50k over the weekend and we got Tommo.
Good read that. Shows how frustrating management must be. He's a charmless individual but he came across well in that eye opening documentary about QPR from a couple of years ago.
