TomtheOwl95 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Rodri's a decent shout, I think we all thought he was going to be a decent signing. Probably didn't help being in a newly promoted team that didn't have much confidence around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthAmericanOwl Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Michele Di Piedi - scored some great goals (Sunderland, Norwich, Birmingham) but couldn't find any consistency probably to lack of ability rather than effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcx666 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Oh and Richie Humpreys, f*ck me, he was the new Marco Van Basten ffs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manicowl Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Regi Blinker - spectacular debut at Villa then looked brilliant for those first four games in 96, then that Udinese transfer malarkey killed his momentum. Jim Magilton - Always liked him at Southampton, never cut it for us. Andy Hinchcliffe - over the moon when we signed him, genuine quality but was never fit. Giles Coke - Really wanted him to do well, had talent, maybe just wrong place, wrong time. Stevie May - See Giles Coke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katie melua Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Daniel Jones Remember watching him for Bristol Rovers in league one and when Irvine signed him, I was delighted - thinking he'd be a perfect replacement or competition for Spurr at the left back role. He was excellent for Bristol Rovers during his loan spell in the season we were relegated from the championship Turned out to be an awful player. Although it didn't help that he had Alan Irvine managing him, and also Gary Teale ahead of him in the left wing spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I stopped wearing it in public about a month into the 98-99 season! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddy Repperton Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Jordan Rhodes. Didn't particularly like him but £10 million spent, goal on debut, then not much else! Ironically, I always joked that the goals would dry-up if he played for Wednesday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll agree with that one, remember watching him when we'd been banned from Europe and they used to show celtic n rangers on BBC midweek. Playing at celtic and looked real quality. Was going to be the "New hope" The new Kenny Dalglish! We sign him and what happens...? He turns into. Ken'ny run, ken'ny shoot, Kenny control a ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shezzas left peg Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Ooh where do we begin I'll avoid the usual DeBilde, yonk, jeffers, potters etc?? How about Richard Cresswell, we signed him for £1million from York, England under 21 International tall good amount of pace seemed an intelligent and started off really well, then just petered out. Think Taylor took him to Leicester and ended up at Leeds and the blunts among about 20 other clubs Guy Branston & Ashley Westwood, both came highly rated, Branston was a tall strong ball playing cb and Westwood a pretty quick cb. Thought we'd signed a really good cb partnership, about mid 20's should have complemented each other really well. They were both bloody awful and struggled down in the pub league too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

areNOTwhatTHEYseem Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I've mentioned this on here before, but I once turned to my mate as we nestled in the South Stand and predicted that Sean McAllister would go on to be a Premier League footballer one day. I've not done pre-match shots of absinthe since. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunt was one of those, like James O'conner Always ruined us and looked class when he played against us. Came here and never hit those same heights.
