Benni McCarthy.  Forever going to sign until he shat on us in a European tie played at the hawthorns for some reason or did I dream that up?

Lock the thread, worst player never to have played for us! We dodged a bullet with Carlton.

Not sure if we were always linked to him, but my dad always thought that Mark Hateley would play for us at some stage.

So loan deals don't count as a signing then?

The names that Doug would get "leaked" to the local press that we were about to sign, and the story was always just before season ticket renewal deadline day. Gazza, McCoist, even Lineker. They all shifted a few dozen more seats.
