Neil Warnock has admitted it is one of his ‘biggest regrets’ that he never managed Portsmouth.
The 73-year-old has had spells in charge of 18 different sides during his 46-year managerial career.

During that time, he has overseen a total of 1,185 matches including a recent four-match stint as Torquay United’s caretaker boss.
However, there is one club absent from his CV which Warnock wishes he had taken charge of.
Warnock’s ‘biggest regrets’
The Torquay advisor joined Alan Brazil and Ally McCoist on Wednesday’s Breakfast show.
During his appearance, the trio discussed Tuesday’s Football League action which included crucial matches in the Championship.
Amongst the results was a 2-0 home win for Portsmouth against Ipswich Town.
Reflecting on the match, Warnock revealed he regrets not managing Pompey in the past.
The legendary manager explained: “Do you know something Ally with them?
“That’s one of my biggest regrets, not going to Portsmouth at one stage.
“Because the fans, when I used to stand in the dugout away from home and I used to stand up to try and shout information on to players, they used to drown me out.
“The atmosphere, we talked about the Premier League last week with Leeds United and the fans at Leeds United and things like that, Portsmouth fans are unbelievable really, the noise they make.

“It didn’t surprise me at all (that they won) because they do play an important part, don’t they? Fans now at this stage of the season.”
The Fratton Park atmosphere has haunted Warnock throughout his managerial career.
Across nine visits to the south coast as a visiting boss, he has picked up just one victory.
That win came with Sheffield United back in January 2003, with the Blades claiming a 2-1 away triumph.
Pompey’s survival bid
John Mousinho’s side made it back-to-back league wins as they saw off promotion-chasing Ipswich at Fratton Park.
The hosts scored twice in two minutes on the brink of half-time through Conor Shaughnessy and Colby Bishop.

In doing so, Pompey boosted their survival hopes ahead of Saturday’s clash with relegation rivals Leicester City, live on eSPORTY 2.
Following Tuesday’s win, they have leapfrogged West Bromwich Albion and Blackburn Rovers into 19th place.
Pompey now find themselves four points clear of the relegation zone with four matches remaining.
Survival would secure a third successive Championship campaign following promotion two years ago.
Their return ended a 12-year absence from the second-tier, which included a four-year stint in League Two.
