Neil Warnock has attempted to clear the air after being called out by Djed Spence, offering a classy response.
Spence helped Nottingham Forest clinch promotion to the Premier League on Sunday with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Huddersfield Town in the Championship play-off final. Having enjoyed a superb season at the City Ground under Steve Cooper, some will be surprised to learn that the 21-year-old is actually still a Middlesbrough player.
Spence was loaned out to Forest nine months ago, with former manager Warnock making it clear that the right-back was not part of his plans, telling him to 'sort his head out' and hinted at an attitude problem. Fast forward and Spence got the last laugh after Warnock was sacked by 'Boro in November, while he is heading to the Premier League, either with Forest on a permanent deal or in a big-money transfer elsewhere, with both Arsenal and Tottenham being linked.
