Peter Taylor played for us for a number of years.
As a management team they reneged on a (verbal) agreement.

Bob Taylor and Paul Gascoigne are the two that spring to mind.

I was so excited about Lalas! Thought he’d be amazing and then he fucked off to Italy. Can’t imagine why. So gutted

Jamie Paterson counts as several, considering how many times we’ve been tenuously linked with him.

Trifon Ivanov.

Zenden was as good as done from PSV in 98. Had verbally agreed to join us "unless Barcelona come in for me" Alas...

Lennon went to Leicester as Ron Atkinson was such a fuckwit when he spoke to him

Both Kevin Keegan (European player of the year later) was deemed too small when he came on trial and Chris Waddle also rejected. My brother knew the guy who made the decisions (his name escapes me), but he was an old skool twat clearly. Rejecting the best player in a generation? How bad is that? How did we miss Steve Highway who was at Warwick Uni and was brilliant at LIverpool?

Trifon Ivanov, he was on trial when Atkinson was manager but got sent off in a friendly & that was the end of that.

Beat you to it.

Was quite surprised that he had passed away a few years ago, aged 50.
