​Cardiff boss Warnock: Survival would be biggest achievement

Cardiff manager Neil Warnock admits that keeping his team in the Premier League would be his greatest achievement.

The veteran boss has never kept a team in the top flight after getting promoted on a few occasions.

However his side are only three points away from Brighton with a better goal difference. There are three more games remaining and Warnock has not given up.

"The pundits did not give us any hope of staying up and quite rightly so when you look at our different circumstances compared to other clubs. We've never thrown the towel in, even with heavy defeats," Warnock said during his press conference.

"We appreciate what our fans have been like, they have been with us the whole way and if anything they have got louder and louder.

"They can forgive other things if you are trying hard. We've really put every ounce in. Whatever happens this season it would be one of my biggest achievements.

"I think the players are the same. You can point at our mistakes but all I have asked is they do their best week in, week out."
