Anthony WarnerHull City keeper Tony Warner has turned down the option of a loan move to League One strugglers Crewe.
The 34-year-old has fallen down the pecking order at the KC Stadium and is currently seen as the club's third choice shot-stopper.

He joined the Tigers on a free transfer from Fulham last summer but has seen his route to the first-team blocked by Boaz Myhill and Matt Duke.

His outing against Millwall in the FA Cup last weekend was his first for the club, suggesting he may be tempted by the lure of regular action elsewhere.

However, Warner has made it clear that he is willing to remain in East Yorkshire and fight for his place.

Hull manager Phil Brown said: "Crewe and Grimsby have both shown interest in taking Tony for a month but Tony is making noises that he doesn't want to go, even though there would be a 24-hour call-back.

"He wants to stay here and fight for his place but there are two very good goalkeepers in front of him."
