I'll start... Franz Carr. Fat and not very good. A mystery.

John Fashanu,i remember i was only 16 at the time,but was so crushed that we'd bought him that I actually wrote to the club and said how we'd be made a laughing stock. Unfortunately it wasn't far from the truth.

At the time Warren Aspinall. I'd stopped thinking that by May 1988 though.

I'd forgotten all about Mathieu Berson...and I don't recall Alex Sperr on any level.

Anyone remember Peter Withe...what on earth was he signed for? What did he ever do?...

I've already forgot a few of these!

Carr at least scored a fairly important goal.

Alex Sperr was signed in the 1988/89 season and was an early version of Martin Laursen but we couldn't get a work permit, so I guess you could lump Henrik Larson (Danish midfielder not the Celtic scoring machine) in there too.
