Sacked Warnock chasing £1m contract pay-off from QPR
Neil Warnock will meet QPR chiefs on Tuesday in an attempt to resolve a bitter £1million pay dispute with the Barclays Premier League strugglers.
Warnock is demanding that Rangers pay up the remainder of his contract after he was replaced by former Manchester City and Fulham boss Mark Hughes last month.
He still had 18 months left on his deal and wants a settlement agreed as he contemplates a return to football management.
Warnock is still being paid by Rangers and cannot work again until his dispute has been resolved, but he will meet chief executive Philip Beard to thrash out terms.
He was the lowest paid manager in the Premier League after taking Rangers back into the top flight last season. Incredibly, Warnock was still working on Championship money of £750,000 a year at the start of this campaign.
He had been expected to sign a new £1.5m-a-year deal, but talks were delayed because of the club’s chaotic ownership situation.
The former Sheffield United and Crystal Palace boss worked under three different owners in six months at Loftus Road after taking Rangers up.
Warnock has won seven promotions during a colourful managerial career and is now considering his options. He has told friends he is enjoying his current media work, but also believes he has ‘one last challenge’ left as a manager. :wink: :money: :money: :money: :money:
