Just happened upon this. As personable as he may well be on the radio, this game just showed how big a scumbag Neil Warnock truly is when it came to football management. An absolute disgrace. No wonder Stan wasn`t keen!

The challenge on Andy Johnson, which sparked it all, turned out to be retaliation for an absolute shocker from him in a previous game when he was with Forest before his move to West Brom.

Remember this game well. Looking at it now it seems a lifetime ago.

Thanks for that link, it refers to the thuggery from Johnson in the previous season. Certainly doesn't excuse the challenge (for want of a better word) on him in this game but it does explain it.
