Warnock has whinge

Sheffield United were relegated after losing 2-1 at home to Wigan yesterday. Blades boss Neil Warnock was quick to deflect blame by criticising Rafa Benitez and Alex Ferguson for their team selections against his relegation rivals.

"You look at Sir Alex and Rafa selecting weakened teams like they did and you do feel a little bit bitter," said the cry baby.

"But what goes around comes around and maybe Chelsea will win the FA Cup and AC Milan the Champions League.

"I thought Sir Alex would be playing a strong team, and just to see them celebrating the title after losing to West Ham leaves a bitter taste."

Liverpool played a weakened team in both games against Sheffield United this season.
