Neil Warnock has had an excellent managerial career. 8 promotions and probably saved as many from the drop.

I don't dispute he's a good manager, or was, in the McInnes mould. But his time is long gone. He was a nonsense appointment from the outset. Way out his comfort zone up here. Totally found out.

He's here!

Can't be bad if he's in the McInnes mould.

It was more the 'arrogant tool' reference I thought was off the mark. Warnock's worked hard, most often at the unglamorous end of English football, hardly a 'comfort zone', and has in my view never carried an ego around with him.

If anything he probably expected Aberdeen to be better than they are but was quickly appraised of why these players have seen off four previous managers in rapid succession.

Aye, and it really was Elvis. A great way to escape the pressures of such fame was to leave Memphis and open a chippy in Largs. Nobody expected that; but he gave the game away when he called the chippy Elvis’s. Didn’t think it through.

There's a reason his nickname is Colin. And he's been extremely well renumerated for his time at the coal face of the English game. His first few interviews up here were full of it, he got found out and he's away back with his tail firmly between his legs.
