We could have signed Drogba

[Champagneblade]

Almost up there with being scared off by the Junta to sign Maradona, it turns out tight Yorkshiremen Neil Warnock couldn't be persuaded by ex-Blade Laurent D'Jaffo to part with 100k to sign a striker from the French second division.

His name? Le Mans striker Didier Drogba!

Warnock admits he REJECTED the chance to sign Drogba for ONLY £100,000

The Blades were in the Championship at the time, when Warnock claims one of his players, Laurent D'Jaffo, approached him on a tip to sign Drogba who started his career with French side Le Mans.

I’m not fussed about that, I’m more bothered about ‘one of own’ calling us Sheffield & forgetting where he managed a club legend like D’Jaffo

You could say that the whole interview was a lie

Neil Warnock is a Steve Coogan character, they're having us all on

Drogba is just a shit Ten Heuvel

We would have made him shit anyhow

Cheers Neil, nice one.

Warnock just tells good stories now to be entertaining on the radio, I wouldn’t get too excited about anything he says anymore
