    Spoke to Steven Fletcher at the dancing and he said he would have loved to have signed for us but we never went for him. This was just after he signed for Wolves from Burnley

    Blame Momo Sylla for Drogba not signing. Drogba seriously wanted to sign but Sylla told him he wasn't good enough.

    Hasselbaink was past his best when Celtic went for him.

    I'm pretty sure he gained the moniker "Jimmy" when he was on trial as a youth with Rangers (RIP).

    Thomas Hitzelsperger, Sacha Klijestan, Liam Boyce(still only young but could be a player)

    Had Hitzelsperger on trial I'm sure.

    Was touted as the next Jorg Albertz.

    So, to summarise, Messi, Zidane, Ronaldinho, Drogba and Torres could all have been playing in Scotland at some point. Instead, we've got Andrew Considine and Ian * Black.

    Amazing to think at one point, the quality some other clubs could sign a few years back.

    Franck Suazee (1 CL Medal, 3x French League winner) - Hibs
    Ravanelli (1 CL Medal, 1 UEFA Cup,1 Serie A) - Dundee

    We will probably look back in 10 years time and remember some players we have been linked with recently who will go onto have great careers.

    I think alot of the guys will just be media driven rumours with no foundation at all. It works against the club when fans believe newspapers and then get angry with the club for not getting players.....they never wanted.

    The Bunnet also said no to sign Jaap Stam because we had just bought Stubbs.

    Big Jock also attempted to sign Alfredo De Stefano.

    For goalscoring, yes.
