Kevin Keegan?

Steve Heighway too, I think.

Trevor Francis.

Colin Bell.

Gotta love the idea of some of these shouts being quite recent. Half of the names mentioned were playing when Jesus was still around.

Yeah that's okay he's due to make return in about two months.

One that’s been mentioned a lot in these type of threads is Chris Marsden. It was assumed we didn’t buy him as we couldn’t afford him.

What we couldn’t afford was Chris allegedly getting confused about crossing a white line. He then went to Wolves on loan and they cite an interesting appearance at Billy Wrights funeral and another curious interest in fire arms.

Who was the Argentinian that went to Portugal instead?

 

[covboy9]

Wagner looks better than any of our left backs

 

[skyblue025]

Michael Carrick came on trial as a youth player.
I always think Robbie Keane as well even though we signed him. It was such a short period of time. Was gutted when we sold him. To lose him and McAllister in the same window killed us.

 

[oscillatewildly]

Steve Bull.

He never got away.
We offered him the world but he still turned us down to stay at Wolves.
Probably the last great example of a non mercenary money grabbing bastard in sport.

Who was the Argentinian that went to Portugal instead?

Benjamin Rollheiser. Never did anything at Benfica after they paid 39m for him. Joined Santos last year for £10m.

 

[alexccfc99]

Im still pissed off about that 18 months later. How we just binned him off for Stamenic who then made us look like amateurs was poor

I thought it was more a case he didn't fancy us and wanted to move to Sunderland

Did not realise this was the case

Yeah, nobody read the stipulated ‘recently’ at all, and just started naming players from decades ago. lol

Rabbi Matondo. After scoring on his Hannover debut he hasn't scored since and doesn't appear to be playing ATM. Rangers look to be terminating his contract early.

 

[cowboy1850]

Mitchy Ntelo. Belgian striker playing in Bulgaria linked last summer. He signed for Yverdon in Switzerland, scored 2 goals but has now been loaned back to a Bulgarian club.​

 

[ThievingScally]

Hang on. I loved Chris Marsden.

How am I only hearing the story about him being involved with fire arms now?!

TSx

 

[Frankly_Mr_Shankly]

Robert Jarni
Alexi Lalas
Phil Masinga
Andrew Driver
Evander

Holyfield?

I remember at the time that Rangers fans, those that weren't simply celebrating his possible departure, saying that he'd do alright if he wasn't up against a low block.

So yeah, he'd have been a great signing.
