Retro Football: Neil Warnock’s Classic Half-Time Bollocking – Shrewsbury vs Huddersfield, 1995
By Chris Wright
Picture the scene – the year is 1995 and you’re plying your trade with Huddersfield Town in the old second division.
You’re wet-through, knackered and thoroughly miserable after finding yourself 2-0 down on a freezing cold, rain-sodden afternoon in Shrewbury and, as the referee’s shrill whistle echoes around Gay Meadow, you know that an irate Neil Warnock is already storming off down the tunnel to concoct his half-time ‘motivational speech’…
(Warning: Contains a fairly high quota of ‘spicy’ language)
How very John Sitton-esque. Pies’ favourite quote has to be: “You? You were in f**king Latvia!”

I thought “John Sitton-esque” was when a manager challenges his own players to a physical brawl.
what was the final score?
Lol……Pure sunday league motivation…..Probablt the reasoning for England’s demise in the international scene, from players growing up on this coaching….
Great to see Warnock changing his tune by allowing players like Taraabt and Buzaky flourish….
The evolution of football happening before our very eyes….
Great upload still! Thanks!

Anyone know what the final score was?
Was Just about about to ask the same thing Greg did, what was the final score?
Nothing Beats John Sitton though lol, Sacking players in the dressing room.
I’ll f***ing tell you what… If Jason could play, YOU’D be off. If Alan could play, YOU’D BE OFF!!! The youth team are scoring goals FOR FUN!
John Sitton wins…
I wonder if he talks to Joey like this.
Final result: 2-1…
