Neil Warnock joins Twitter and explains infamous video that delighted Cardiff City fans and went viral

It's finally happened.

Former Cardiff City boss Neil Warnock has celebrated his (alleged) retirement by finally joining social media platform Twitter - and has already delighted his followers by recreating one of his most hilarious and iconic moments.

Within hours of joining, the Yorkshireman had unsurprisingly amassed thousands of followers. At the time of writing, he has currently bagged 96.5k.

And many of them were left in hysterics by his very first tweet, which was a re-enactment clip of the infamous moment he fronted up to a TV camera during his time as Cardiff boss.

His hilarious re-enactment was accompanied by the caption, "Walking in to social media…" You can watch the video below.

In a separate post explaining the story behind that infamous moment, Warnock explained in front of the camera: "So, that was against (Crystal) Palace, the last game at Cardiff, unfortunately when we got relegated.

"The cameraman put his camera right in my face, so I thought 'I'm not having that' so I went toward him.

"They accused me of being Liam Gallagher or somebody, but I've never even seen him before. So it was just Neil Warnock trying to show the cameraman what to do."

Warnock recently announced his retirement from the game after leaving his last job at Middlesbrough. He has eight promotions to his name, with his most recent coming with the Bluebirds back in 2018.

He now insists he's retired, although he recently revealed in an interview with WalesOnline that he'd already had a couple of offers.

Could we yet see him in a dugout again soon? We'll see.
