Neil Warnock was furious with the officiating in his side’s 2-1 defeat to Chelsea

He said: I just feel as long as Vincent [Cardiff owner Vincent Tan] wants me to stay, no matter what division we are in, I think I owe it to the fans to stay.“I changed my mind in the last couple of months with the Emiliano [Sala] tragedy. It brought a lot home. In the cold light of day, I don’t see anyone better to take over at this moment in time.“Whereas if I can steady the ship next season, I will be in my final year at Christmas time, then I can help the club pick another manager. “That’s what I would like to do, because the fans have been so good to me. I wouldn’t like to leave them in the lurch.“I have never seen [my wife] Sharon enjoy a club like this. I’ve never heard fans chanting the name of a manager’s wife before.“She does love the fans, and they have taken to her, so I will keep ticking on.”
