Neil Warnock says he would have walked out on Crystal Palace after they went into administration if Simon Jordan hadn't convinced him to stay.

The Eagles manager considered his future after creditor Agilo brought in administrators The P&A Partnership over money they were owed less than a week before the transfer window closed.

Warnock said that day he was confused about the timing with Victor Moses set to leave for millions and had showdown talks with joint administrator Brendan Guilfoyle the morning after the club's defeat at Newcastle United.

However, he has revealed it was Jordan's request that he stay on that kept him at the club and that if Jordan had asked him to go, he would have done.

"He wanted me to stay on to steady the ship," he said.

"Of course I was willing to go for him if he wanted it.

"We came in for him so we would go for him."

Despite managing to keep all their players bar Victor Moses at the club last week, Warnock's squad could yet be decimated before the FA Cup Fifth Round tie with Aston Villa on Sunday after the loan window opened again today.

Guilfoyle has made it clear that money still needs to be trimmed from the wage bill if Palace are going to survive which could mean players like top-scorer Darren Ambrose going out on loan.

Warnock though is in the dark as to any potential deals.

"I haven't spoken to Brendan about the loans yet," he said.

"It is in his hands and I don't know if anything is going to happen."
