Warnock appointed Aberdeen interim manager

Aberdeen have named Neil Warnock as their interim manager and expect to appoint a new boss for the 2024-25 campaign before the end of this season.

The 75-year-old takes over from Barry Robson, who was sacked last week after a year in charge with the Dons eighth in the Scottish Premiership.

Warnock will be in charge for Tuesday’s league game against Rangers at Ibrox.

“I’m really looking forward to the challenge – Aberdeen is a big club with clear ambition,” he said.

His assistant Ronnie Jepson has also joined Aberdeen while Peter Leven will continue as first-team coach.

The Yorkshireman came out of retirement a year ago and kept Huddersfield Town in the Championship but left the job last September.

“I’ve made no secret of the fact I’ve always wanted to manage in Scotland so when I spoke to Dave [Cormack, chairman] and Alan [Burrows, chief executive] and they asked me to help out it just felt like the right opportunity,” he added.

“By all accounts there is a good group of lads here and it’s my job now to get the best out of them.

“I’m hoping that during my time here the supporters will get behind the team and I can put a smile on their faces.”

Robson followed Derek McInnes, Stephen Glass and Jim Goodwin in leaving the role around this time of the year for the fourth consecutive season.

Aberdeen say the appointment gives them time to carry out the detailed review of the football operation that began at the end of 2023 and which chairman Dave Cormack says will include “benchmarking the club against similar teams that outperform us in Europe”.

Warnock holds the record for the most league games managed in English league football – a remarkable total of 1,626 – during his time at 15 clubs and has masterminded eight promotions.

His previous job at Huddersfield was his second spell with the Terriers, who he got promoted to the English second tier in 1995.

Warnock has also had two stints with Crystal Palace and Queens Park Rangers, leading the latter back to the top flight in 2011.

He also won promotion to the Premier League with Sheffield United and Cardiff City.

Early in his career he took Scarborough into the Football League and enjoyed successive promotions with Notts County.

“From the moment we first spoke with Neil his enthusiasm for managing Aberdeen was infectious,” Cormack said.

“He has had an incredible career, not only in terms of volume of games and winning promotions, but also of coming into clubs at short notice and making an immediate impact.

“We still have a huge amount to play for both in the Premiership and the Scottish Cup.”
