Dragon55544 Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Still convinced Warnock is a serious target. I wouldnt moan if we got him. Pretty solid defender, good energy and supports the wing pretty well. Not the flash signing people are expecting but would do a good job for us. It would be interesting to see him and Enrique fighting it out for a place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
