<p>The European Cup winner was quite disrespectful to the Cardiff boss with personal jibes as well as trashing his style of football.</p>
<p>However, Warnock responded <span>“You get bitterness and usually when you’ve beaten someone, but people showed me some of the stuff Kenny Burns said.</span></p>
<p>“I remember him coming down to the tunnel at Bramall Lane, II think it was a semi-final – and he was only an ambassador or something – when we were 2-0 down to Forest.</p>
<p>“We ended up winning 4-3 and I had the ‘Warnock way’ and all that stuff from him back then.</p>
<p>“I just didn’t like the Ken Dodd stuff, the lads will pick up on that and make fun, I’m sure. I like to think I’m a better comedian than him,” Warnock joked.</p>
<p>“Kenny had a go at managing and I think it lasted three weeks, it’s easy to sit up there, isn’t it?</p>
<p><span>“I’m sure he (Kenny Burns) realises that we’re in professional football and we aren’t here to let people have a lovely afternoon at our benefit,</span></p>
<p>“I’ve had bigger people than Kenny Burns criticise me over the years. I have a few friends who are Forest supporters and one of them said it was like men against boys and I thought it was a very good performance.”</p>
<p>"My dad used to say to me, when they stop criticising you, that’s when you worry."</p>

Bigger is size or stature in the game?
If its size, I don't think many bigger people have had a pop at Warnock.
