Neil Warnock is a certifiable crazy person at times and is famous for his outbursts against managers, players and referees alike, especially Stan Ternent. Their feud can be traced back to one particular match between Sheffield United and Burnley back in 2001. Ternent accused Warnock of sending a spy to listen in on his team talk with the Clarets and didn’t waste any time in complaining to the referee.

Ternent and Warnock’s second-in-command, Kevin Blackwell got into a scuffle in the referee’s office where the Burnley manager reportedly punched and headbutted him. Since the bust up, Ternent has said, “I’ve had a friendly beer with Blackwell since, but I won’t look Warnock in the face.” Warnock, on the other hand, said, “I had always known Stan Ternent was a d***head but when Sheffield United played Burnley in 2001 he behaved like a deranged lunatic.”

Warnock also famously said, "The two managers I really dislike are Stan Ternant and Gary Megson. The old saying that I wouldn't p**s on them if they were on fire applies."
