EXCLUSIVE: BACKROOM CHANGES
Posted on: Thu 01 Jul 2010
Neil Warnock has added another two new faces to his backroom team with the addition of a Reserve Team Manager and a Strength and Conditioning Coach.
Former Huddersfield Town and Burnley striker Ronnie Jepson has joined the Club to oversee the R's second string, whilst Carl Serrant - who played for Oldham Athletic and Newcastle United amongst others - will be responsible for the fitness side of the First Team.
The duo have both worked with the Rangers gaffer in the past and Warnock is delighted to have them on board, telling http://www.qpr.co.uk: "I am really pleased.
"Ronnie's knowledge is vast, and I really like the way he handles himself.
"He is very professional in his approach and is the type of person I want. I like the way he deals with people.
"I am going to be leaving pros out of my squad and they're going to be disappointed to be with the Reserves. So it's not an easy job for Ronnie, but I know he can deal with that situation very well.
"And Ronnie will say to me, 'I thought this lad did well last week Gaffer, you might want to consider him for the bench.' It's important to have that sort of good, working relationship."
Meanwhile, Warnock will also team up once again with Serrant, and said: "Carl is a lad who I always felt had the ability to become one of the top fitness guys in the country.
"He's very diligent in what he does and is a great guy to have around the place. He's enthusiastic, he wants to do well and he wants to be the best. We will reap the benefits of that.
"During pre-season Carl, if anything, tries to calm me down. He has all these modern techniques and wires across the players' chests.
"He'll be telling me, 'That's it now boss, they can't do any more.' And I'll say: 'Carl, I'm telling you - they can!'
"We have disagreements every now and again, but it's healthy to have that."
