Tony Warner

[palexander]

Veteran goalie Tony Warner is apparently playing for us tonight v Millwall.

Would be a great signing IMO, lets hope he does ok.

 

[kentblues]

Hes been offered a contract by Accrington and is Liverpool based (spent about 5 years their warming the bench as number of years ago). Said he would prefer to stay in NW but given he has just come back from playing in Australia....
If he comes down tonight having already got an offer elsewhere he must be keen
He played for years in the top two flights- it will all come down to how fit and sharp he still is. Anywhere near his best he would be useful- but he's 38. Will be interesting. Certainly not lacking in experience and I bet he turns up on time!!

He started his career at Liverpool he earned the nickname Tony Bonus, due to him receiving many win bonuses as a non-playing substitute, without ever playing a senior game for the club – where he spent the first five years of his career there. At Millwallhe earned the nickname Denzil, because he looked and sounded like the character Denzil from Only Fools and Horses

Clubs

Played over 200 times for Millwall, possibly a Neil Harris recommendation?

Ironic... "Warner started nearly every match for Leeds up to the sacking of manager Kevin Blackwell when new manager Dennis Wise witnessed a poor performance by Warner in the League Cup against Southend United and brought in a new goalkeeper on loan..."

Wasn't Mark Prudhoe an experienced veteran as well?

 

[kentblues]

Sat on the bench 120 times for Liverpool from 94/95 without getting on the pitch!!
Note he was at Preston on trial in July

Remember that game well, we were sat behind him chanting "Warrrrrnnnner"!

and Neville Southall...

 

[Sandbach Shrimper]

He's certainly been around!

If Paul Sturrock has discovered a way to go back in time then I think he could be a great signing for us.

 

[southend4ever]

No thanks. Ex Millwall. Just like Harris - will be a let down. :winking:

 

[* ORM *]

Yea just like all those other let downs we've had over the years. I'll start the bidding at Paul Sansome (only to get the ante up high early doors)

 

[southend4ever]

Erm...

Anton Otulakowski maybe but he was with us first. He was pony.

Have I missed something - when did we start disliking Millwall? I quite like them mainly because they hate west ham.

Mate, no one likes Millwall.

Hence:
We are Millwall, no one likes us, we don't care.

Since the first game in the New Den when I had the pleasure of sitting in the home end with a Millwall supporting mate.

Total scum the lot of them.
