Paul Warne: Derby County boss likens boos to pantomime treatment

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder offered a message of support to Warne when he spoke to the media after Saturday’s match, with the two bosses also talking in person immediately after the game.

When asked about how he is coping with the mounting criticism and pressure, Warne was his usual unflinching self.

“It’s not nice, is it,” he added.

“Most people have empathy. And I think most people will know that my intention when I get up in the morning isn’t to get the team to lose.

“However, I understand that there is always going to be a vocal amount who are very frustrated when it comes to me.

“Am I doing great? No. But it doesn’t make me any worse at my job. How I feel doesn’t affect how I work, it just makes you more motivated to get the next win.

“Obviously everyone is down, my staff will be down, but it’s my job to pick them all up again.”
