Brentford manager Mark Warburton insists there's no hard feelings between himself and Cardiff City counterpart Russell Slade.

Slade accused the Bees of "celebrating like they had won the FA Cup" after beating his Leyton Orient side in a promotion showdown at Brisbane Road in February.

But Warburton, whose team went on to clinch a top-two finish at Orient’s expense, says there's no bad blood between the pair ahead of today's clash in south Wales.

He said: “We celebrated an important win for five seconds and then shook hands – we were respectful.

“Maybe we should have shaken hands first, but defeats in this game are sore enough, so when you win you want to celebrate.

“There’s no hard feelings. I have seen him since and spoke to him on the phone a few weeks ago. Russell’s a nice guy, very experienced with a good CV.”
