Mark Kinsella and Leonhardsen are the ones that spring to mind.  You knew times were tough when we were signing Charlton Rejects.

Didn't Gregory sign Balaban purely on seeing videso of him?  Or was that Little & Milosevic.  Whichever it was, that was pretty unfathomable, but Savo worked out ok!

Ian Ormondroyd - £650k record signing from Bradford.  Was a little puzzling to say the least, turned out to be OK-ish, but record signing??!!!

Crikey - good find that.

42 goals in an 18 year career as a centre-forward? That's impressively bad.

Still, probably paid for John Gregory's conservatory.

Remember it well Dave. Glad I opted against having "BARTIGOL" stamped on my new replica shirt.

I remember thinking to myself "well, how bad could it be having a striker on loan from Roma coming off the bench"

Looking at those stats again - FOUR goals, anywhere in the world since 1998 as a professional centre-forward and still counting that as his job today. I'd fancy myself to do better than that just by standing on a goalpost at corners.
