Warnock claims to prefer the Championship

The 'Bluebirds' are yet to win a game since being promoted last season, and face Burnley on Sunday ahead of a tough fixture schedule in the coming weeks. 

Speaking to 'Sky Sports', Warnock said: "I don't enjoy it like the Championship, everybody knows that. Whether that's the wrong thing to say? I like the Saturday-Tuesday, Saturday-Tuesday. But the quality I do enjoy.

"This time I said to myself I want to enjoy going to the grounds, the stadiums are fabulous for the fans. For me, the fans have been the difference this year.

"They've got on board, they know all the circumstances, they're not daft. They know what the situation is around the team, and they've just supported us. At Chelsea, 4-1 down, they were amazing.

"If they were the opposite, against us or picking on individuals, it would be difficult, but they're really supportive. They know this is almost like a bonus year for them, going to different grounds.

"But I still think we can put a performance on to get results, and we've got to get results. Without the fans it would be impossible, but fortunately they've been really good with us.

"There are two leagues. It's the top six playing against each other and the rest of them fighting for their places. In our first 10 games, we're going to play against the top seven from last year, it's a horrific fixture list really.

"I'm pleased with how they've adapted. I'm disappointed we haven't got more points on the board, if we'd have had nine or 10 points I think we'd have deserved it."
