Bought for a then British Record transfer fee of £500k+ in 1979 scored 6 goals in 3 years and then flogged for £30k. Translate that into today's £ notes.

Matt Carbon (made Carlton Palmer look like Bobby Moore)
Scott Darton
Kevin Steggles

If you remember, there were strong rumours we signed the wrong Paul Williams!Originally Posted by stripes39
When he was introduced to Bobby Gould it’s rumoured that Gould said.......”Who the f u c k is he........I ordered a black Paul Williams”.
We’d had a useful Paul Williams ( in black! ) who’s been on loan and played fullback.

I agree with the above except for Martin Fulop. Yes, he was poor in the one game that he played for us but he put in some pretty decent performers for Leicester.

In terms of reality versus expectations I’d say in no particular order:
Geoff Hurst
John Deehan
David Mills
Nicolas Anelka
Mike Phelan
....... with Grady Diangana since full transfer looking ominously like joining this turgid group.

Something in common here all past their prime and jumping to us for a last pay check.. History will likely repeat itself soon I fear 😞

John Deehan is a very good shout ⚰️⚰️😫😫
Paul Groves had a good stab at being a total waste of money we didn’t have! 😲
