Born - Sheffield - 1/12/48
Debut - Middlesbrough - 4/8/71
Another player who made an impact in a short time at Pools.
Neil started his career at Sheffield United in 1968, he could not hold down a regular spot so moved on to Chesterfield where the same pattern emerged in out the side. Neil moved on again to Rotherham were he had a great first season but only made 12 appearances the season after.
Len Ashurst then Pools manager took a chance on Warnock in 1971 and it paid off, not the quickest and most skillful of wingers but his strength and commitment made a great impression with the Poolies and Neil got player of the season. The following season he moved up a league to Scunny were he had 3 season and was a popular player but yet again he was on his bike having spells with Aldershot, Barnsley, York and Crewe were he retired.
Neil went straight into Management but it was a grocers shop he bought, keeping his hand in he managed a couple of local non league sides before taking Scarborough into the league in1987. He went from strength to strength managing Notts County and Huddersfield before taking Plymouth up via the play offs. After spells at Oldham and Bury he hit the jackpot on took his home town team in to the Premiership. He was sacked when Sheff Utd got relegated Neil moved onto Palace in 2007 and got them into the play offs.
Warnock is very outspoken and all his sides play good football his remarks about referees have got him into trouble on many occasion but thats Neil Warnock he is like marmite you love him or hate him
