NEIL WARNOCK blasted Fulham loan star Neeskens Kebano – after he pulled a hamstring playing on a scooter and was caught on club CCTV.

Midfielder Kebano, 29, then compounded the damage by revealing he was crocked on Instgram. The social media revelation undermined Warnock’s plan to try and kid Wycombe he had no injury problems.

The Boro boss turned detective after Kebano (above) reported in hurt on Friday, despite players having done no physical work the day before.

Warnock said: “Kebano injured? Yes, it was really good of him.

“I thanked him for letting everyone know after I said there were no injuries!

“He said, ‘Sorry gaffer, I didn’t know.’ I said, ‘Why don’t you just go and tell them, knock on their door.’ He stretched a hamstring.

“We caught him on CCTV on Djed Spence’s scooter, pushing it round. We could have got in the play-offs quite easily but we weren’t good enough.”

Wycombe conjured a great performanc­e with goals from Fred Onyedinma, Garath McCleary and Jason McCarthy to lift them to third-bottom a point adrift of safety.

Boss Gareth Ainsworth said: “Half of these players came up from League Two with me.

“My emotion is pride. Bring on League One.

“We can turn down bids, keep players and bring some in. We have always been a selling club to stay alive and balance the books.

“I really fancy us to make a noise.”
