Warnock comes across as a tory and a xenophobe

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

And a little Englander

Should keep his mouth shut on such matters , said he was an admirerer of may before , wouldn't be surprised if he was a udm Thatcher lover

[Rjk]

Not a big surprise, he's 70, white and very wealthy.
He's generally pretty old school in his views as far as I can tell.

[Igovernor]

Absolutely nothing wrong with what he said, Sludge dont like it because he is a Corbyn and Abbott fan

I don't mind him having an opinion, but at least have an informed opinion, he sounded like a Cretin-Basically, what he said was that everyone can '****off' If we had taken that attitude historically, then we would all still be living in caves.

Ahh so he must be then? that statement is pretty ageist and racist it's self imo.

Not really, a massively large majority of 70year old wealthy white men in this country are Tory voters, therefore it shouldn't be a surprise that Neil Warnock is, if indeed he is

Just like Jeremy Corbyn.

Sounds pretty racist to me.

“To hell with the rest of the world”

He comes across as out of touch ffs, you’d defend anyone if they were associated with Cardiff for a grown man it’s crazy how one eyed you are.

[Joe Gillis]

This is a democratic society. He has a right to his own views, perhaps he should be calling you out for being a liberal pervert.

To hell with the rest of the world is not a reasonable view for a football manager, owned by a Malaysian, where his CEO is a Malaysian, and his chairman is a Turkish Cypriot. He's allowed to back Brexit, he shouldn't say stuff the lot of you. It's really not that bloody hard.

How you deduce all that from what he has said/done in the last seven days is beyond me. Given his background (working class from a mining/heavy industrial city in Yorkshire) he is much more likely to be a left wing/Socialist supporter than anything else. As many, if not more, Labour suppporters want brexit and are anti-foreigner than Conservative ones. What difference does it make anyway, if we started vetting people who enter the area or worked for the club based on their political leanings or moral beliefs, the games would be held in a half empty stadium and particularly, your seat would definately be empty.

The OP has a copy of the Ladybird book of Politics. The above is a tad complex for him..

That goes against any evidence I've ever seen on the subject

Do you have any evidence to back this up?

You are totally incorrect. In the EU Referendum around 60% of Labour supporters voted Remain. That figure has now increased according to recent polling to at least 70% Remain. In contrast around 75% of Conservative voters wanted to Brexit. So in summary most Labour supporters are a Remainers and most Tories are Leavers.

I think stating that I am totally incorrect is over stating it a tad. It is my opinion and you have yours. There can be no doubt that many Labour supporters backed Brexit. Opinion polls are notoriously unreliable as well.

You are wrong. It’s not my opinion. It’s fact that 60% of Labour supporters voted Remain in 2016. Do some checks and you will find this out for yourself.

Hang on a minute, I thought Brexit wasn't political?

Or that while the national result of the referendum was relatively close, with 52% voting Leave and 48% voting Remain, a much larger majority of parliamentary seats voted to Leave – with 64% of seats in Great Britain voting Leave

70% of Conservative constituencies and 60% of Labour constituencies voted to Leave in the EU referendum.

[Pearcey3]

Yep but a lot of those Labour leave constituencies have now switched to Remain according to all recent polling whereas the Tory held constituencies are still Leave supporting.

Why can’t people see it isn’t his views that have made him look a fool, it’s how empty of substance they were.

If he’d said why he thinks it’s a good idea to leave and why it’s affecting transfers or the club fair enough. The manager of a multi-national and extremely diverse company coming out with “to hell with the rest of the world” is beyond stupid.

Does he have a second job? Cardiff City is a small domestic business, not a multinational.

I'm not too bothered about it all really. Yes, it's a stupid thing to say but this is Neil Warnock and saying stupid things after poor results is his modus operandi. He's like a TalkSport shock jock without a radio show.

What difference does it make if someone is “anti foreigner” are you for real?

In your quest to discredit my post, you appear to have stumbled across my point and reinforced it. Thanks very much. It was the OP who accused NW of being a 'Xenophobe', as if there is something totally wrong with it and that such a person should not be managing our team. Perhaps you should direct your derision at him. Someones political beliefs and dislike of foreigners does not make any difference whatsoever in his ability to undertake the job at hand - there, we actually agree on something ! PS. Xenophobe means anti-foreigner, in case you didnt know.
