Brubear 2,880 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 When we were fighting with the tarriers to sign Novo I remember not being that bothered if we got him or not other than putting one over on them. In hindsight was delighted we signed him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
markem 7,238 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Mols tbh. Was my own lack of awareness but I had no idea what an absolute class act we were getting in him. Edit: probably the wrong way to describe the signing, I wasn’t underwhelmed with the signing. As I say just had no idea of the quality of the guy.

bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Kenny Miller. Hate the prick for wearing their rag but genuinely didn’t believe he had it in him to do well for us. I will never like him but he certainly got my respect for what he gave us on the field. Billythebear77 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thermopylae 15,286 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Not sure if he actually fits into this but John Brown was a less glamorous signing because of who we signed him from but he was a stalwart in the team for years I suppose the opposite of this was Kuznetsov and to a lesser extent Mikhailichenko. The latter should have been one of the greats in our game like Laudrup and Gazza. I'm not sure if It was being played out of position wide but he never quite caught fire Billythebear77 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mols94 3,663 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Aluko. He was top class for us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
demise 3,411 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Kenny Miller. Sasa Papac. On the other end - James Beattie. I remember he was our first signing in quite some time and hes done fuck all. All i can remember is an assist at Easter road for Miller. Jerome Rothen was also a disappointment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved Tugay and Reyna - terrific players that I’d never heard of. From Scotland, Broadfoot and Cleland were good (even though some thought they were pish). Odd how RB has always been a difficult role to make a success of at Rangers. They were both immense JograBear and graeme_4 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulbrian11 432 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Boli. Massive disappointment. Partly down to the fact he was allegedly a lot older than he claimed to be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salenko was a lot better than most people’s memories of him. He scored 8 in 18 games. Turn the sound down on this one… Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute masters at their individual games, and both perfect fits for us at the time. Big Amo was another one. Had never heard of him and just didn't understand why we had gone for him. Gladly proven wrong there. As for flops. There's been a few good mentions so far and I've only got to page 4. However, Seb Rozental (not his fault really) and Kuznetsov (similar reason) are the obvious candidates for me. blueballss 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well apart from that time he skelped the tims. Was it a leg break? I always had it in mind he did his knee ligaments in. On that subject, we didn't half have some bad luck in that department. Rozental, Prodan, Kuznetsov, Reid, Mols.....to name a few! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
