blueballss 2,951 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Boli, nutted Pearce etc, thought he was going to be a monster for us..meh disappointed Albertz? wondered who the feck was this guy, at the time anyone who wasn't a shoe in for their national team was undecided, how that changed Goram, small, fat, fae hibs, let a goal loop in over him at tynecastle as he watched it, he did alright Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember I met him outside the Paisley Lagoon in Seedhill when I was hanging about the streets boozing in my youth. He was flanked by 2 absolute monsters of security guards.

Amato 3,010 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Kris Boyd the second time round. Thought he'd be shite, but he was so outstanding he ultimately earned himself a move back to his boyhood club Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geronimoo 1,474 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Not the guys fault coz he broke his leg in like his 2nd game but I will say Oleg Kuznetsov, he promised so much but never really got over the leg break. Well apart from that time he skelped the tims. LegendofCoop 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll read more carefully next time to ensure I don’t offend your precious little self. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoopsLaud 4,184 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 17 minutes ago, miracle said: Stephen Wright & Alan McLaren deserve a mention there too in terms of injuries. Basile Boli was a huge disappointment. Remember being a bit gutted for stephen wright when he came in then never got a run through injury after he was such a standout at aberdeen. Thought at the time he would have the same impact as davie robertson had on the left. So many tragic stories with injuries with Rangers over the years.

BlueSuedeSambas 53,548 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I thought Beasley for £700,000 would be an absolute steal. Established international and had done really well in PSV side that reaches the Champions League semi finals a year before we signed him. Smith was also great at pulling form out of players. Turned out he was lightweight and a decent squad player at best. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

onefootwillie 1,518 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Going way back we signed Alex McDonald signed around the time of Colin Stein and everyone was talking about Colin .

murzo 7,428 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Ronald Waterreus. Man City reserve keeper when they were pish who hadn’t played for them but came up when Klos got injured. Hadn’t played , wore a mullet, but did well and made vital saves in big games. Rum Ham and graeme_4 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewaj3 1,444 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Got a few that haven't been mentioned. Surprising signings that did well. Vuckic, did us a turn when we became Newcastle reserves for 6 months. Neil Alexander, I thought he was a waste of 500k at 30 years of age, well worth that, part of our uefa cup team. Loyal. Folk have mentioned most of the others. Tugay I always thought, we don't need him, waste of money, ageing, (how spoilt were we at the time) didn't get a great look in at us but what a player. (Loved Reyna at us too) Disappointments Colin hendry, don't think he was bad, just advocaat didn't give him a chance. Waste of money. Van vossen. Thought he'd be a great addition. Say no more. Also thought Cammy bell was a great signing at the time. Names that others raved about, but I never really got excited by, Aaron niguez and Matt mckay. We had a lot of hype for mladenovic and namouchi too. CoopsLaud 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tannerall 25,935 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Underwhelming signing that made a huge impact ? I believe it might just be Marvin Andrews. Top signing who I had high hopes for but failed would probably be Kuznetsov. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
