Peter Schmeichel. Very odd that one.

Peter Crouch, who at the time, was just a freak. Now he is a pretty good striker, but still a freak.

Fashanu was utter gash,just before that Big Ron had gone for Klinsman,that's like going to buy an Alfa Romeo Brera and ending up with a Lada with 3 months mot.

Schmeicel and Ginola.   Made us look incredibly small-time in my opinion (thanks Mr. Ellis).

That ex-professional tennis player, turned semi-pro footballer Michael Boulding. He was ace...

Good shout.

I'll go for Habib Beye.  Had Luke Young and Cuellar.  I like to think of this as the signing that finally did for O'Neill.

Didier Agathe, Berson, Stas, Carr, Fashanu, Balaban, the list goes on just hope we don't get no more of these type of signings.

That Irish bloke with the dodgy knees that Graham Taylor signed in 1989 from Man Utd.  I remember folk laughing at us paying that much for a cripple....and Adrian Heath.

Alex Sperr - a bit like Danish player Kurt Bakholt who we were going to sign during the 'empty Villa Park' days of 1985/86, but didnt.

Ian Taylor, I thought he was a nothing player from Sheffield Wednesday- glad he proved me wrong.
