Rogers 5,254 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 2 hours ago, Manwë said: He was a big signing for us at the time. I remember that we had a pre-season in the USA and he was unable to travel. I'm guessing it was something to do with visa waiver issues. Either he was there to kill the president, was involved in Nazi war crimes, was Castro's right hand man, or he had a bit of previous with Her Majesty's finest. Or knowing Wednesday, all of the above. Guilty of pretending to be a footballer, that’s for sure. Link to post Share on other sites

We had a few really unmemorable derbies and I think he scored in one of those, Ian Hendon scored in one as well, they've not entered folklore as you'd expect a derby scorer to.

Despite being here for 6 months he made zero appearances. He currently plays for Rudar Velenje in the Slovenian second division. Not sure I would have messed with him though. Yes Kasnic and Uchechi were both highlighted by Megson as players brought in by Milan, not him, neither of whom Megson wanted or rated as competent footballers. Turned out he was 100% correct and the two players were just brought in by MM to make the numbers up. Anybody know who advised MM on these signings? I remember asking the big bloke that ran the fan's forum meetings with the club (ex West Ham director involved with Tevez signing), who was responsible for signing players when we had no scouts and he told us that everybody at the club had contacts in the game and that they all came up with possible signings, which was when our loan player signings looked very dodgy for the first time ever, a very dodgy way of dealing that still goes on now, with no-one publicly paid by the club being given the full credit that should be rewarded for. Preferably with the sack, loss of payments and back payments to the club. Link to post Share on other sites
