I had heard that rumour about a bag of balls at the time as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebluedoo 2,652 Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Jean- Alain Boumsong, never really heard anything about him signed on a free, 18 games 2 goals later he was off to Newcastle for 8 million bucks. Really was a case of blink at you missed it but in that short space of time I thought he was fantastic Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuistraHairDo 12,489 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Mark Walters Signed for 500 000, and let’s face it when he signed Scotland in general was a fairly racist place, sounds embarrassing to say now but a lot of ppl thought no way a black man could fill the boots of the magic that was Davie Cooper. How wrong we were. I actually fell in love with the guy, made the left wing his own, and was an absolutely great signing, definitely became a hero of mine, made his debut at the piggery and every Rangers fan had his back after what has been dubbed the worst racist incident in BRITISH football with manky bastards being the manky bastards they are.

Real Ranger 3,193 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Possibly down to the calibre of player we were signing at the time but I can’t say I was over excited when we signed Michael Mols, yet he turned out to be one of the most talented players to play for the club.

I’d never heard of Wallace before he signed but the cunt finished like Defoe does now. Lethal. We had a very expensive team at that team spearheaded by a bosman. Rod Wallace must be the best value signing we’ve ever made. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His goal v PSV away was my favourite ever Gers goal, he was some player Russell and Cooper both left Rangers too soon as they would have done Souness a turn no problem. Astonishing that a man of such ability was never capped, if he was strutting his stuff now he would be an ever present. SonOfLuther 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would've been an interesting fight between the two of them for the shirt until big Porrini arrived on the scene. kelvd1873 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperPapac05 3,383 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Sasa Papac and Davie Weir. Signing another useless cunt from Vienna and an OAP thought was going to fuck us over. But they both gave their heart and soul for this team and didn't stop fighting for us on the pitch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought at first he just looked like a typical street/freestyle footballer. Proved me wrong after the Rapid game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelvd1873 7,132 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 I couldn’t believe we signed Jonas thern from Roma in a free... great player blighted by injuries. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MurrayWilson 3,373 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Claudio reyna, didn't expect much probably due to him being American. Turned out to be a great little player for us. Believe it or not I was very underwhelmed the same as most people when we signed Ray Wilkins, everyone thought he was done and he had the false reputation of being nothing more than someone who passed the ball sideways. First game he played against hearts everyone knew straight away how wrong they were. He was some player. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
