This is also the Guy that paid players off with huge amounts of money and also under sold alot of players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordo 33 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 People seem to forget how shite Bain was most of the time because he, eventually, got Jelavic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a fan of his negotiation skills but in all fairness some of our managers have targeted and insisted on buying some real duds who no one would pay much or anything for when they were found out.

Adoniram 1,919 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Arthur Numan would probably disagree with you. Oh and the Jelavic deal was done in jig time wasn't it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

markybear 136 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 He also somehow managed to bump the jela 2mill price tag up to 4mill, even after he would've been ineligible for us in Europe. Good going Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterC 12,197 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I remember posts on here during the McLeish years and everyone was bumming him up talking about what a great job he was doing!So for someone who joined in 2008 to remember posts on here during the McLeish years is rather strange considering he left in 2006, which coincidentally was 6 months after RM started during which period I cant remember any players being signed although I am happy to be corrected on that one. I can only conclude from your comments in this thread that you are at it. The doors this way..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Andypendek Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Was earlier than 2006, wasn't it? I know my join date was reset after a board crash and I'm sure I'd been posting for over a year by that point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is also the Guy that paid players off with huge amounts of money and also under sold alot of players.Now I'm not one for sticking up for Bain but.... what evidence is there that he undersold our players? How many players that left us that he undersold were then sold on for a higher fee to prove the point?I can only think of Adam if he gets sold Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
