    There is no way Zheng Zhi and Kapo should be there! Or Ljungberg! They hardly even played.

    Yep. £5m back in the crazy times. He regularly features in top ten lists of the silliest signings ever as a result.

    It was Barnes and Dalglish wasnt it? Oh, the good old days where Scottish clubs could spend money they didnt have and get away with it!

    Definitely. He was a poor man's Kayal, and one of the few decent things about Tony Mowbray's tenure.

    Aye, that's right. Casino times. Pay big or get lost. You know, the foundation for the debt that has since strangled many an SPL and SFL club. (And, for that matter, many clubs the length and breadth of Europe full stop.)

    Anyone ever wondered why, in that last decade there, we signed so many duff players called Camara (or Kamara in the forward Diomansy's case)?

    I mean, you'd think we'd have learned after the first one. Also, The photography-related puns in the media were almost too much to bear - 'snap shot there from Kamara', etc.

    No way should Rab Douglas be in there. At the time, I was disappointed we didn't bring in a better 'keeper, but the big man did a sterling job and ultimately helped us to the Uefa Cup final.

    Richie Towell one of the worse players in recent years to pull on the jersey. The lad was always hopeless

    He was just a kid who played a handful of games for us. He wasn't even bad in the games he played.

    boy played about two games for us or something and most certainly DID NOT look like "one of the worse players in recent years to pull on the jersey".

    ridiculous that Rab Douglas is there, absolutely ridiculous. People are blinded by him having a poor game in the UEFA Cup Final and they seem to forget his incredible performance at Anfield which, without him, we wouldn't have went through. Particularly harsh considering we've had the like of Mark Brown and Magnus Hedman.

    He played in 14 games for us. He was BRUTAL. 20 - 21 yr old is not that youing in the modern game. He should NEVER have been anywhere near our first 16. He's that bad he has NO club at present. Next job for him is back at Quinns supermarket in Dublin.
