'Where's my manners! Welcome to Twitter': Djed Spence aims dig at Neil Warnock following Nottingham Forest's promotion to the Premier League... after his former boss previously claimed he could end up being a NON-LEAGUE player

Djed Spence has poked fun at his former boss Neil Warnock after gaining promotion to the Premier League with Nottingham Forest on Sunday.

The 21-year-old played under Warnock for Middlesbrough, and back in November 2020, the veteran manager claimed that he had the talent to play in the Premier League, but that his dedication to the game could see him playing non-league football in five years' time.

Spence played the full 90 minutes in Forest's 1-0 play-off final win against Huddersfield at Wembley, and he could not resist having a dig at Warnock afterwards on social media.
