The January transfer window completely makes that argument void. The bigger clubs can go out there and improve their squads so that when others play them the starting 11 is much stronger than when the other team faced them. Alternatively, when a new manager comes in. Would you rather face United under Mourinho or Solskjaer? United were struggling against the likes of Palace, Solskjaer comes in and it's totally different. IMO it's the same with a stadium move.

Sorry but that’s nonsense. The rules are the same for everyone.

That's true, the rules are the same for everyone. So if Chelsea decide to move stadium during next season then the rule would be the same, right?

The point is that there are so many variables and situations that transpire over a season that mean one club has an advantage in one aspect, and a disadvantage in another aspect.

It's the same argument as a team resting players - because they have an important game in another competition - coming up against a relegation threatened team, a relegation rival will spit feathers about it, yet the team resting players has every right to rest those players because they can only look after their best interests. If Chelsea and Arsenal finish 7 points behind us, that's their fault and theirs alone, especially when they have much more cash inflow/spenditure than us.

The thing that highlights this mans worth or integrity is the way he goes up to the player coming off and putting his arm over the players shoulder whilst at the same time shaking his hand so that appears to the people watching on TV as tho he is being sporting and respectful when in fact he is being snide sly and disrespectful .What a complete two faced piece of work and to say this man is a wanker is being kind.

Resting players,changing managers,players getting injured,fixture congestion are all things that have been part of the game for a 100 years or more. A club moving stadium after 2/3 of the season is unprecedented as far as I’m aware. You can’t compare it as an everyday event that happens every season.

I get wanocks point, but is he going to pay for us to play there all season? If not then we move back to our stadium and not waste so many millions playing games there when our new stadium is built.

Warnock doing a Mourinho by talking about stuff to take the spotlight away from a poor performance by his team.
There is obviously an agreement that we can move mid season so that’s the end of it.
I don’t think it will be a problem with champs lge. Dortmund prob too early but if we get through we will be able to play at NWHL. These are one off games so will be same for both teams.

That's how I saw it. Cardiff were poor and he couldn't say anything positive really so he invents another headline.

He has and will always be a right moaning t**t.....



Lol bless him, he’s a dying breed for sure. That video has made me like him a little bit more and I don’t know why. Probably the child like pettiness, he is so emotional and wrapped up in the game a bit like a fan would be. Clearly loves the game, and passionate about every single kick of the ball.

He’s a dinosaur, for sure but you can see this isn’t just a job to him is it.

Every other club in the league gets to play 19 games in their home stadium in front of a potentially packed house of good-willed fans. They get to decide if an NFL game is played on their pitch. So whether it's unprecedented or not, it should be seen as an unfair disadvantage if we were denied our own home games once the new stadium is ready.

There are far too many variables in football matches and over the course of season to make all games completely fair across the board. This is just Warnock making headlines to try and divert attention from their poor defensive performance.

Although Warnock is a massive dick in terms of fairness he’s actually correct. But it’s actually the teams that have to play us at new stadium that should be complaining. Nobody knows for sure if it’s an advantage or disadvantage but common sense would make you think it’s an advantage to move. Unfortunately I would have to agree that over 19 games conditions should be exactly the same for every club. If say it was Chelsea and they’d lost to city and Liverpool at Wembley and then we had to play them at a new Stamford bridge can’t say I’d be happy. So while Warnock personal gripe is redundant his actual point is valid.

Maybe he should have talked to his chairman who voted for us to use wembley and the nwhl. As did the other chairmen.
