  • Neil Warnock will stay at QPR, says Bernie

    I think its been posted before, but with people suggesting Warnock will leave now that the Mittals wont be taking over, what about this article...Surely he wont go back on his word..

    Neil Warnock will stay at QPR, says Bernie Ecclestone
    • QPR's majority shareholder Ecclestone dismisses speculation
    • 'He's staying – 100%. We've never discussed him leaving'

    Bernie Ecclestone has claimed that Neil Warnock will lead Queens Park Rangers into the Premier League next season.

    Marcello Lippi, Claudio Ranieri, Giovanni Trapattoni and Martin Jol have all been linked with the Rangers job, even though Warnock has just led the team to promotion and the Championship title.

    However Ecclestone, the majority shareholder at QPR, has made it clear that Warnock is not leaving. Speaking in the paddock at Barcelona's Circuit de Catalunya ahead of the Spanish Grand Prix, the 80-year-old said: "He's staying – 100%. We've never discussed anything about him leaving. He's never wanted to leave and we don't want to get rid of him. He's absolutely taking the club into the Premier League."

    Ecclestone has also dismissed suggestions of a potential takeover by another shareholder, the Indian billionaire Lakshmi Mittal. It has been claimed Mittal will launch a bid for the club on Monday.

    Formula One's commercial-rights holder, likened it to rumours surrounding a takeover of his own sport by Rupert Murdoch. "Mittal put a statement out to say he was going to buy all the shares on Monday," Ecclestone said. "But it's a bit like these Murdoch people saying they're going to buy CVC [F1's commercial rights holders]. They have forgotten to ask if it's for sale."
