HirstWhoScoredIt Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Peter Reid is surely the biggest. Wasnt he actually in a car on his way to sign for us and Howard Kendall somehow stopped him - even though it was before mobile phones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The limiting factor in all of this though is him being so fecking expensive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Road Runner Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 A team we could have had in the early 90's from failed bids to us turning them down: Woods Nilsson Pearson Stam Worthington Beckham*** Roy Keane * Shezza Waddle Shevchenko** Cantona *Keane wrote to club for a trial but we rejected him as we had just signed Chris Bart-Williams. ** Shevchenko actually came on trial but was deemed not good enough and too small *** We bid for Beckham and Man utd wanted 3 million. Dave Richards refused to pay 3 million for a reserve team player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. If you read his autobiography, he was a very young midfield player in Holland, whose hero was Trevor Francis. He simply asked if he could train with us for a week or two, just so he could work with Francis for a few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said to my mate at the game we should sign this kid. Sadly we didnt Big Ron, first time around, organised this game on 4th round FA cup day (we naturally went out the previous round) with the express intention of trialling him.

Inspector Lestrade Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Every player who have never played for Wednesday have turned Wednesday down if you take it far enough. This thread is silly. I'm stopping this thread. Too much silliness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't recall the Keane and a shevchenko ones either but would stand corrected on those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 We were proven right on Shevchenko in a way. He looked really weak and slow in English football compared to the more methodical Italian game. Loved him for AC Milan though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
