    As per title, doesnt matter whether the transfer happened or not.

    Who was your most exciting rumour?

    Always sticks in my head about Rivaldo, we offered him a * trial:43:

    Honourable mentions to de la pena, hakin yakin who was class against us at the time.

    Momo Sylla told a young Drogba he wouldn't get a game for us, which was true at the time as we had three great strikers. But still, would have loved to have seen him in the hoops.

    I thought Gravesen was going to be unreal for us.

    Rivaldo and De La Pena. We offered both a trial. * Celtic at their best.

    Big Venegoor was a bit of a surprise signing at the time as well as he was known around Europe.

    Even Sutton was a bit of a big one as he had been a regular scorer in England despite one bad season

    Wee Joe Miller. I believe we pipped Liverpool to his signature. Still love the wee man but it went sour for him when Liam Brady brought Stuart Slater to us.

    I remember being absolutely buzzing when I heard the Craig Bellamy rumours. Was so gutted when he didn't sign permanently.

    Being exceptionally pedantic here man but was Jota a rumour? Remember him just coming out of nowhere on deadline day
