It’s lovely bubbly for Warnock

Leeds United 2 Tottenham Hotspur 1

In typically idiosyncratic style, the Leeds United manager celebrated with a packet of crisps, washed down with a bottle of champagne. Anything but bubbly afterwards, Villas-Boas was forced to defend his lack of attacking options, but there was no such protection of his side’s suspect back four. The Portuguese was never going to defend the indefensible.

“My wife and kids are away at the moment so I’m on my own to celebrate,” manager Warnock revealed after his side claimed a third top-flight scalp this season. “I’ll have a few glasses of champagne, and I might even treat myself to a packet of crisps.”
