There probably aren't too many other managers who would have gotten us promoted that season.

However there are also severe limitations to his managerial style. His strength is also his weakness in some respects, as he has such an indelible style to his football teams, thats what helps everyone know what they should be doing, but it is also a style that is becoming less and less effective throughout the football leagues.

He is also apparently extremely unwilling to bring youngsters through, or sign younger players. Our squad is a mess, it needs a lot of work doing to it and to have to do so much at one time you have to be really lucky for it ll to click. There's a good chance we will have a fallow few seasons now, and the new manager will probably get the blame, but it will largely be Warnock's fault as its him who allowed our squad to get like this. Huge chunks of our wage budget are taken up with past their peak players who cant play the full season, and can't keep up with their younger rivals.

Not many of Warnock's previous clubs would contemplate having him back
All of This.
Warnock is an impact manager. He leaves no legacy behind. He’s like a Poundland Mourinho.
