Neil Warnock on brink of QUITTING Huddersfield as press conference announced with ‘mystery foreign boss’ lined up
NEIL WARNOCK is set to quit Huddersfield Town after Wednesday’s home game with Stoke.
Following Saturday’s 2-0 win over Rotherham that lifted Town into 16th spot, the veteran boss said he would address speculation about his future on Monday.
And claims a mystery foreign boss has already been lined up to take charge, with a press conference imminent.
Warnock, 74, said: “It (social media) did say this was my last game so that’s wrong then.
“So you’ll have to wait until Monday now, the press conference. We’ll discuss it then.
“I'm ever so proud of what we've achieved here. I’ve enjoyed every minute of it and I’m not prepared to talk about it [now], but a wonderful performance [against Rotherham].

“I'm just enjoying my football, the crowds and the atmosphere, and when I see the lads put in a performance like that.”
On the visit of Stoke, he added: “Of course I will be [here], I want to beat Stoke, more than anything.”
Warnock came out of retirement in February to keep relegation-threatened Town in the Championship against all odds.
He then signed a new one-year contract after the takeover by American Kevin Nagle.
