Neil Warnock, 74, took Huddersfield from the abyss to safety in the EFL Championship. So, now he's back to retirement
Against all the odds, Neil Warnock managed to save Huddersfield Town from going down to the third tier, as the EFL Championship side secured safety with a 1-0 win over Sheffield United on Thursday night.
Warnock came out of retirement in February, accepting the challenge at the struggling Huddersfield, but done an outstanding job and kept them alive.
Yes, Neil 💙

Asked whether he plans to continue with the club in the next season, he said:
"No, I couldn't do ten months of this. I'm exhausted.
"You only see me laughing and joking and doing pressers. But, behind the scenes, this has been bloody hard work to keep everyone motivated."
Pressed further on his plans once the short-term deal with Huddersfield ends after Monday's final game, Warnock adds:
"I'll be back somewhere in February, I'm sure. You'll all be saying, 'Oh no, not again!'
"But (wife) Sharon will have got fed up with me being at home again by then."
