Its not because a manager did it against us. Its because an ex manager who always professed to be a proper Blade and always played up to it, then celebrates in what some see as an over the top celebration, others like yourself see it as fine. To put it another way, it's a bit like an ex girlfriend you still have feelings for and who thought still had a soft spot for you kissing their new boy friend in front of you. We all know that they'll be kissing the new boyfriend but we'd rather not see it right in front of us when they could just go round the corner and have the same snog!
That's my best attempt of an analogy anyway! I'm not saying Warnock should have celebrated with the Cardiff fans out of the ground, I'm saying that some of our fan base thought he might show a little more tact or decorum because it is his old club and he has always said he is or was a Blade. It doesn't surprise me though and I think any opportunity for Warnock to get one over McCabe is a factor also. We move on, and I don't begrudge him for celebrating but it just proves to me that he isn't the Blade he professes to be, but then again that all was proven when he flirted with the Wednesday job. That was the turning point for me and I've never seen him the same since to be honest, but I honestly don't think Warnock gives two hoots about his relationship with the Blades is like, once he left us, we simply became just another club. That's how I view it anyway and his actions speak louder than any words he ever said about being a Blade, although he spoke truly from the heart when he said why not manage Wednesday its a job at the end of the day and I'm a football manager, they'll soon forget my past when we win a few games!
It doesn't mean I don't like him or respect him but he's not a Blade as far as I'm concerned, he's a good manager but blade? Nah, no way.
I've heard call us that. As for his antics last night, designed to wind us lot up, which it did, and as is the norm for Mr Warnock, was all about him.
