May 4 (Reuters) - Cardiff City manager Neil Warnock said relegation from the Premier League was insignificant compared with the loss felt by the death of Emiliano Sala in January.

Warnock saw his side go down on Saturday after a season overshadowed by the death of the Argentine striker in a plane crash en route to Cardiff in January.

"That puts it into perspective - yes, we've got relegated, but life is far more important," said Warnock after the 3-2 defeat by Crystal Palace.

"You can't plan for something like that and I didn't think it would affect the players in the way it did.
