    Stoke City's Facilities Lambasted by Warnock

    Neil Warnock was fuming today, after his Middlesborough side were beaten away at Stoke City 1-0, he wasn't complaining about the result, instead the facilities that Stoke City provided.
    With the pandemic, his team could not use the normal changing rooms, instead the team were placed in a porter cabin, with no heating, toilets were bunged up, & water was all over from the showers, Warnock had to get the drains cleaned out, not a happy man, then on top of that he was also placed in a porter cabin, with no heating, & water on the floor from the showers.
    His response was when Stoke City visit Middlesborough in March 2021, they will receive the same treatment, if his chairman won't pay for a porter cabin, Warnock himself will pay for it. Warnock said the changing rooms were like a pigsty, & even pigs would not have stayed in it.

    I think Colin was fuming that there was no space to park his nose.

    And warnock would never make the away team as uncomfortable as possible in all his years of managing would he.....he”s probably just tipping his hat to the lengths they went too really...nice to see the old school tricks still going on..

    I'm sure we used those tactics at Millmoor under Ronnie,s era.
    Hose down the away dressing room just before they arrived.

    This is why West Ham threw their toys out of the pram

    Stoke City away team changing rooms have been upgraded for the visit of Tottenham, after Neil Warnock's complaint of calling it a pigsty, Warnock was the voice that brought attention to the dressing room conditions, then it turns out other championship teams have spoken of their concerns.
    Blackburn used the dressing room on Saturday with no complaints.

    To be fair, I don't think it took too much sabotage to make Millmoor's facilities unfit for humans. I can still remember having to wade through 3 inch of pi ss in the Tivoli end "toilets".
