Got to be Emlyn for me.
Didn't he once appear on Question of Sport wearing a Millers top, and proceed to put his arm around Princess (horse face) Anne?
Players: Jim Storrie Jonny Quinn Joe McBride Mark Robin's all played at alot higher level before signing for us. Emlyne if you count player managers.
The Doc certainly made the headlines I will give you that.
Some for the right reasons and some for the wrong reasons.
Dropped a clanger getting rid of John Galley to Bristol City when he did.
Signed Johnny Quinn, Dave Watson ( outstanding player ) wheeling and dealing with Doncaster Rovers (. 3 out 2 in )
Put the players on decent wages with good bonuses and then left for QPR before he had completed 12 months.
It was all downhill from there, sinking into the lower divisions after all those years in League 2 ( Championship)
Certainly made the headlines.
Doc...420 apps, 8 goals, 25 caps for Scotland, Emlyn...632 apps, 43 goals, 62 England caps, both defenders, Doc certainly made the news, ripped the team apart got relegated then flooked off within 12 month, I know i was there clever so and so, like i said stick to Racing Post.
The Doc did what he said he would do, get us out of the championship, but regretfully went wrong way, & we were relegated.
Ronaldo & Messi must be two of the biggest names never to play for us.
The way I read the title, Emlyn Hughes is definitely the name
