He looks up and his eyes brighten and he points out a flock of geese flying in formation down the river and out to sea. He says they are heading for Looe Island, just around the headland. He walks down that way sometimes.<\/p>\n<p>I tell him that Pep Guardiola has a fascination with geese and their formation and that the Manchester City manager says he has learned about leadership, life and the way a football team works from watching them. \u2018You wouldn\u2019t put it past him, son, would you,\u2019 Warnock says. \u2018Some manager he is, eh.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>People stop and ask if they can have their picture taken with him. Warnock chats and laughs with them. He loves all that. An old guy with a walking cane stops. He is not interested in a selfie, he just wants to talk. How much longer is Warnock going to manage, he asks. \u2018I\u2019ll give myself another 10 years,\u2019 Warnock says. They both laugh.<\/p>\n<p>Ten more years? Stranger things have happened. Warnock is 74 and has more life in him, more verve, joie de vivre, enthusiasm and love for what he does, affection for players and more of a grasp of what makes them tick, than a lot of people half his age. He even has a presence on social media, his reputation burnished among a younger generation by clips on YouTube of him berating his players back in his pomp.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/13\/19\/76533845-0-image-a-2_1697223006687.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Neil Warnock &#8211; now 74 &#8211; joked that he could give himself a further 10 years in management\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/13\/22\/76533897-12629043-Warnock_was_full_of_praise_for_Manchester_City_s_all_conquering_-a-17_1697234192518.jpg\" height=\"424\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Warnock was full of praise for Manchester City&#8217;s all-conquering manager Pep Guardiola<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I was at the Open at St Andrews a couple of years back,\u2019 he says, \u2018and lads would be crossing the fairway and when they saw me, they\u2019d shout, \u201cYou\u2019ve got to f***ing die to get three points\u201d.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The years have not left him untouched. His best mate, Paul Evans, and long-time assistant, Mick Jones, both died recently. Warnock values his health.<\/p>\n<p>He does more and more work to help raise awareness of prostate cancer through the LivingCare group run by Huddersfield Town\u2019s club doctor, Stephen Feldman. It has made him more eager than ever to seize every moment.<\/p>\n<p>He has taken charge of 1,627 matches in English football, more than any other manager, and even though he lost his job at Huddersfield last month after performing a miracle by saving them from relegation from the Championship last season, his appetite for a new challenge is undiminished.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018When Huddersfield told me they wanted to go with someone else,\u2019 Warnock says, \u2018I thought to myself, \u201cWell, at least it\u2019s a good week to get sacked\u201d. There was the Ryder Cup, the Rugby World Cup, the Cricket World Cup all coming up on the telly, so I settled on the sofa with some crisps and nuts and put my feet up.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018When you look at those lads at the Ryder Cup, I had tears in my eyes two or three times. That\u2019s why I\u2019m still involved in sport, because of days like that. I loved Rory McIlroy having a go at that caddie, I loved that passion. I got goosepimples. You can\u2019t replicate that anywhere outside sport.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018That\u2019s what you\u2019re in it for, for those moments that you can never replicate in any other walk of life. When that whistle goes and you have got promotion, or have won an important game.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The team spirit at the Ryder Cup was unbelievable. The young kid, Robert MacIntyre, was having a bad time and you could see Justin Rose helping him and it changed him. That\u2019s what the team is about, making them feel how important they are to that team.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/13\/22\/76533847-12629043-The_Football_League_icon_has_taken_charge_of_1_627_matches_in_En-a-18_1697234192520.jpg\" height=\"424\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The Football League icon\u00a0has taken charge of 1,627 matches in English football, more than any other manager<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/13\/22\/76533839-12629043-Warnock_has_been_appointed_to_the_dugout_on_19_occasions_for_16_-a-19_1697234192522.jpg\" height=\"357\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Warnock has been appointed to the dugout on 19 occasions for 16 different clubs<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It doesn\u2019t matter how much money you\u2019ve got. Those lads don\u2019t need to do the Ryder Cup. It just underlined what I\u2019d been thinking, that \u201cthere\u2019s no way you can retire from management\u201d because you don\u2019t get that buzz anywhere else.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I never said I was going to retire this time anyway. No way. I\u2019ve got the buzz again. I know I\u2019m getting on, bloody hell. I still get that kick out of it, though.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It might be I\u2019m going to start doing February, March, April, somebody in trouble. Instead of putting my slippers on, I\u2019ve got that bug again. I\u2019ve got a brilliant assistant in Ronnie Jepson. I feel there\u2019s something there again for me now.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018They say it\u2019s a young man\u2019s game but I don\u2019t think it is. When I started 45 years ago at Gainsborough Trinity and Scarborough, I thought then and think now that it\u2019s 90 per cent man-management that gets you success.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018You can have good players but it doesn\u2019t mean you are going to get success. You can have all the coaching certificates, degrees and diplomas but if you can\u2019t get the best out of your players, you\u2019ll never win anything.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>We leave the coffee shop and walk down the quayside. Warnock wanders into the fish market. A man with a Scottish accent waylays him. He\u2019s a Rangers fan. He says Warnock is 10-1 with the bookies to be their next manager after they fired Michael Beale. Warnock laughs. \u2018I wouldn\u2019t put any money on it,\u2019 he says.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I always fancied having a go at managing in Scotland, actually. I love the history at Rangers. I love walking up those steps. It feels a bit like it did walking into the Marble Halls at Highbury. I would have liked Hearts or Hibs, so I could have had a go at the big-time clubs like Celtic and Rangers. I applied for the Aberdeen job once but I never got a reply. I had a player called Laurent D\u2019Jaffo, who was with me at Bury and Sheffield United and he played at Aberdeen. I asked him what it was like. He said: \u201cIt\u2019s the only place I know, gaffer, where it\u2019s so cold the seagulls never land\u201d.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Is there any club he would not manage? I\u2019m thinking of Reading, perhaps, where supporters once chased him round the car park at the Madejski Stadium, or Stoke, whose fans serenaded him with \u2018Warnock is a w*****\u2019 in his final game in charge of Huddersfield, or Sheffield Wednesday, the enemy for any Sheffield United fan.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/13\/22\/76533841-12629043-Warnock_may_have_been_known_as_something_of_a_scourge_of_officia-a-20_1697234192523.jpg\" height=\"424\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Warnock may have been known as something of a scourge of officials, but he has great respect for Howard Webb<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/13\/22\/76534225-12629043-He_was_given_the_sack_by_Huddersfield_earlier_this_season_despit-a-21_1697234192524.jpg\" height=\"424\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>He was given the sack by Huddersfield earlier this season despite miraculously keeping them up<\/p>\n<p>\u2018No,\u2019 he says. \u2018The biggest compliment I get when I start with a new club is that the fans say, \u201cWe never liked you before you came but we\u2019re glad you\u2019re here\u201d. I didn\u2019t mind what happened at Stoke. The humour is lacking a little bit now for too many managers. They seem to forget about enjoying it.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I love it with fans who have a go at me. Every one of those clubs where their fans have a go at me, I would manage. It wouldn\u2019t worry me at all.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>We cross the river on the old stone bridge that links the two sides of the town and climb up the steep path to Warnock\u2019s house and its views of the Cornish coast, the harbour and valley disappearing into the countryside beyond.<\/p>\n<p>Cornwall has been his home for 30 years, ever since he managed Plymouth. He even brings his teams down here for pre-season games, usually against sides from Bodmin, Liskeard and Tavistock.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/13\/22\/76533843-12629043-The_74_year_old_pities_Webb_s_task_of_improving_the_quality_of_o-a-22_1697234192524.jpg\" height=\"420\" width=\"306\"><\/p>\n<p>The 74-year-old pities Webb&#8217;s task of improving the quality of officiating<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It does them good,\u2019 he says. \u2018They change in old changing rooms. After the game, they sign all the autographs and have all the photographs. Nowadays, too many get off the bus with their headphones on and never sign an autograph. I don\u2019t like that. It\u2019s all about the fans.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a terrace outside, so we sit for a while as the sun is going down. He talks about team spirit again. He says it is the key to everything he has achieved \u2014 his record eight promotions, the escapes from relegation that he has masterminded, his sheer longevity. If there is a secret to his success, and his popularity, it is this.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Every player\u2019s different,\u2019 he says. \u2018You have to rollick some and love some, kick a backside at times. You have to be a father to them, care about them and their families. But you have to have laughter. Most of all, you have to have laughter.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018My enjoyment is on the training ground. I give all the lads stick. I am funny. I\u2019m sure, behind the scenes, they give me stick. You can\u2019t put it in black and white. It\u2019s having a laugh. It\u2019s just how I am. I like making poor players average and average players good. I like pushing the boundaries.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Having a laugh goes hand in hand with building confidence and relaxing them. If they\u2019re relaxed and happy, they will go through a brick wall for me. I\u2019ve never had the best team but if you ask managers who they don\u2019t want to play against, I bet I\u2019m in the top two.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/13\/22\/76534235-12629043-Warnock_showed_his_appreciation_for_humour_claiming_that_side_of-a-23_1697234192525.jpg\" height=\"424\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Warnock showed his appreciation for humour, claiming that side of management &#8216;is lacking&#8217; in the modern game<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/13\/22\/76534283-12629043-The_veteran_manager_has_so_far_celebrated_no_fewer_than_eight_pr-a-24_1697234192525.jpg\" height=\"450\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The veteran manager has so far celebrated no fewer than eight promotions in his long career<\/p>\n<p>Warnock\u2019s wife, Sharon, is out for the night. His kids, James, Natalie, Amy and William, who he cannot stop talking about, have all flown the nest. And anyway, the football is on. I watch Newcastle versus Paris Saint-Germain on my laptop. Warnock fires up the big screen in the living room and flicks between Rotherham-Bristol City and Leeds-QPR.<\/p>\n<p>He tuts at a couple of refereeing decisions and praises a couple more. Known as a scourge of officials, he is an admirer of Howard Webb and pities him his task of improving the standard of officiating in England. He admires Michael Oliver, too, although not his decision to spare Mateo Kovacic a red card in Arsenal against Manchester City.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018My dad was a referee in the Midland League,\u2019 he says. \u2018He was really good. I asked him once why he never got to the top and he said he didn\u2019t sell enough raffle tickets at the referees\u2019 annual dinner.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I used to love reffing myself. When I was a player, I\u2019d ref on a Sunday in the Sheffield league after a Saturday game as a warm-down.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018There was one team \u2014 they were called Arbourthorne EA, because most of their players lived on a road called Eastern Avenue \u2014 and they were known as the hardest team in Sheffield. They kicked lumps out of people. I enjoyed doing their games. They never gave me any trouble.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The games are nearing their end. Soon, Warnock\u2019s phone starts lighting up. News is seeping out that Wednesday have sacked their manager, Xisco Munoz, after 10 games without a win. Warnock is already one of the favourites to take over. Radio stations and journalists in Yorkshire want to know if he would be interested.<\/p>\n<p>His mind drifts back to Sheffield. He is thinking about his best moment in the game and cannot pick one. Each of his eight promotions were special, he says, and he laughs at the memory of driving back into Nottingham after Notts County had won a Wembley play-off final.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018There\u2019s a pub in Clifton on the way back into the city on a roundabout \u2014 I think it\u2019s called the Crusader \u2014 and there were thousands of people waiting for us there, so we just kept telling the coach driver to go round the roundabout again. The poor bloke must have got dizzy. We went round about 12 times.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>His memory alights on one other moment, too. \u2018My dad worked 16-hour shifts at English Steel,\u2019 Warnock says, \u2018and he used to rush home, change quick, we\u2019d get on the bus, get down to the terminus at the bottom of Granville Road, about a mile from Sheffield United\u2019s ground, run up and go through the turnstiles.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/13\/22\/76534365-12629043-Warnock_was_one_of_the_favourites_to_take_over_from_Xisco_Munoz_-a-25_1697234192526.jpg\" height=\"424\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Warnock was one of the favourites to take over from Xisco Munoz at Sheffield Wednesday despite their rivalry with the Blades<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/13\/22\/76534185-12629043-Warnock_despaired_at_the_decision_not_to_send_off_Man_City_s_Mat-a-26_1697234192531.jpg\" height=\"424\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Warnock despaired at the decision not to send off Man City&#8217;s Mateo Kovacic for his two infamous challenges against Arsenal<\/p>\n<p>\u2018We knew someone on the turnstiles so if he was on, I used to sneak under. Then we ran up these stairs, which were like Mount Everest as a kid for me, and you could smell the hot dogs at the top and then you saw the pitch and the green, green grass of Bramall Lane.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018When I got the job there in 1999 \u2014 my dad never saw it, sadly \u2014 I drove to the ground the night Derek Dooley told me I had got it, parked my car at the back of the car park and looked at the sign saying Sheffield United FC and thought about my mum and dad for about an hour because I knew how proud they would be.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018When we got promoted to the Premier League, we needed Leeds not to win to go up and I was on my tractor, cutting down weeds. Sharon came running across shouting, \u201cThey\u2019ve drawn, they\u2019ve drawn, we\u2019re promoted\u201d. I\u2019m crying now, thinking about it.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The calls of another flock of geese making for the island drift over on the wind. One day soon, this month or next, Warnock will take a call and head back north.
