Warnock leaves Blades

Reports suggest Neil Warnock has left Sheffield United after the club's relegation to the Championship following only one season in the top-flight was confirmed by Sunday's home defeat to Wigan Athletic.
The news looks set to be revealed at a Bramall Lane press conference on Wednesday morning.
It is believed that Warnock rejected the offer of a new two-year deal from the club last week.
The veteran manager has been in charge at Bramall Lane since December 1999 and finally guided the Blades to promotion to the Premiership 12 months ago after several near misses.
In a long and varied managerial career, Warnock has also been boss of Scarborough, Notts County, Huddersfield Town, Plymouth Argyle, Oldham Athletic and Bury.
In a busy week of managerial activity, Manchester City have already parted company with Stuart Pearce while Paul Jewell resigned his position at Wigan Athletic.
