Neil Warnock has been named BBC London Sports Personality of the Year 2011 following an amazing 12 months at Loftus Road. The R's gaffer guided the Club to Premier League promotion by winning the Championship in May - an incredible achievement considering Rangers occupied 20th spot in the second tier when he arrived just 14 months earlier. Now, 15 games into the new campaign, QPR occupy a healthy position in the Premier League. Warnock, pictured being presented with the award by BBC London's Phil Parry, said: "This is fantastic and I really do appreciate it.

"This award is a fantastic achievement for me, and the last 12 months ranks as high as it can go. "The most memorable moment for me isn't a great win. It was when we were 6-0 down at Fulham this season and our fans started singing 'There's only one Neil Warnock'. "I can't tell you how much that meant to me. The fans know how far we have come in such a short space of time
OK now I do and fair dues to him and them; will go some way towards giving him the recognition he deserves after being shafted last year. First of many??!!
Thank fu*k for that. Considering the amount of grief Sian Massey got, imagine what Keys and Gray would say if it turned out Neil was really Nora!
He certainly is a personality and the media actually seem to like him - for the moment! Brilliant. Well done.
Incredible achievement, considering he had to work with the goons for so much of this period. Really is amazing that he did not walk during the summer.
