Neil Warnock mocks Boris Johnson with timely Twitter post after he resigns as PM

Boris Johnson will soon be vacating the top job in England and there is a surprise contender to replace the Prime Minister - the one and only, Neil Warnock.

A veteran manager of countless clubs, Warnock is used to fighting fires and going into difficult situations and so with that in mind, he posted a tongue-in-cheek Photoshopped picture of himself being unveiled as Johnson's replacement on his popular Twitter account.

It showed a mock-up of Warnock outside 10 Downing Street with the caption: "Warnock to step in. Sharon gives Neil permission for one last job." The 73-year-old's well-timed quip garnered plenty of laughs on a historic day after Johnson's decision to step down from his post.
