And there are calls from Bluebirds followers for a long-lasting tribute to Bamba, who the Welsh aspect described as a “membership legend” and “a hero to all of us”.
Warnock says the participant, who as soon as described him as a “father-figure”, wouldn’t need any fuss.
“Are you aware I’m unsure Sol would love something like that,” Warnock instructed BBC Radio Wales Breakfast.
“Sol simply preferred to be himself and did not need any accolades or something like that, he was only a gentleman.
