Anthony "Tony" Randolph Warner (born May 11, 1974 in Liverpool, England) is a Trinidadian goalkeeper currently playing for Norwich City F.C. on loan from Fulham,
He moved to Cardiff City from Millwall in July 2004 after five years with Millwall, which he joined from Liverpool. 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. At Millwall, he earned the nickname Denzil from Only Fools and Horses, for looking and sounding like, Denzil. A firm fan favourite, and prolific penalty stopper, which earned him his own chant from the Lions fans of, "Denzil, Denzil wots the score? Denzil, wots the score?" Warner was voted Player of the Year 2002/03 by the Millwall fans. Despite being injured and unable to keep goal for Millwall at their 2004 F.A. Cup Final appearance, the then, Millwall manager Dennis Wise, insisted that he be presented with a medal. He left Cardiff City in the January of 2006 to join Premiership side Fulham, where he had been previously on loan.
On January 10, 2006, it was announced that Warner would join the preliminary Trinidad & Tobago for their 2006 World Cup campaign but he was not selected in the final 23 man squad. Despite this he made his début for the Soca Warriors on March 1, 2006 against Iceland.
On 4 August 2006 Leeds United signed Warner on a one-month loan from Fulham as cover for the injured Neil Sullivan, making his debut in a 1-0 victory over Norwich City the following day. His initial loan period was due to end on 4 September, but on 31 August the loan deal was extended until 1 January.
Warner started nearly every match for Leeds upto the sacking of manager Kevin Blackwell when new manager Dennis Wise witnessed a horrific performance by Warner in the Carling Cup against Southend United and brought in a new goalkeeper on loan, Graham Stack who kept Warner out of the side for several matches. An injury to Stack gave Warner his place back in the Leeds side, but his loan spell at Leeds drew to an end on 1 January 2007.
Warner has now signed on loan to Norwich City until the end of the 2006-2007 season as a replacement for the previous loan goalkeeper David Marshall
