WeirFleckNRothen 1,789 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Scott Brown and Scott Allan.I remember our entire stand at Easter Road singing "Scott Brown... we're gonnae sign Scott Brown" in late '06 or early '07. There's a video of it on YouTube.I was positive we were taking Allan this summer; I was surprised he ended up at Hibs.I always thought we would sign Kenny McLean at St Mirren, as well. It never materialised, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copland bear 7,966 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Scott brown, the deal was struck and they even shook hands on it after a game at Easter rd, only for the Mhanky mob to pay over the odds for him and Murray to tell them no thanks we won't be matching it.You would think Brown being a Rangers fan as a boy would have said look I going to Rangers or nowhere.But they paid 5.5 million and 25k a week and that is too much money for a headless chicken Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrLaudrup 4,839 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Jardel, and what a signing he would have been. I seem to remember Advocaat tried to sign Ronaldo from PSV also. That would have been interesting! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StewGer 606 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Stuart Pearce back in the 80s.That one is a good example of how football has changed, my figures might not be exact but it was something like Souness offered 400,000 they wanted 500,000 and we wouldn't pay it .

NixonRFC 1,453 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I think a few people are confused here, it's not famous players we tried to sign, its players we're surprised didn't sign.I think you'll be hard pushed to find anyone who was actually surprised we didn't sign Ronaldo, Van Nistlerooy or Van Persie Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goianegra 4,702 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Was his name not Jäger? Seemed to be here forever Enar Jaager! That's him. What's gutted we never got him after all the time we wasted (ours and his) considering our quite dismal right back situation at the time.
