Guest ToqueJambo Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Mauricio Pinilla, the best striker to only ever play 5 league games for us. After leaving us, became a two time Copa America winner, played in the WC finals, averaged 7 goals or so a season in Sere A for a while, became a bicycle kick specialist. Still plays in the top Chile league. We could have had him at his peak. Imagine how many he would have scored for us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a pass through with Hearts but his football CV makes for pretty decent reading. I didn't really know what to make of him......... Scored at Motherwell then didn't really do much else He was a class above. Soon lost interest after realising he was playing with amateurs.

Салатные палочки Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 What about Justin Fashanu. 11 Games and 1 goal (I barely remember it, but it was against Partick Thistle and may have went in off his arse). Well, we all know what happened after that. Colin Cramb - 1 goal in 6 games. I think he was a hamster cheeks signing.

Also enjoyed a bevy or five. Glen and Eliot were the two a remember. both very highly rated coming through the ranks and both retired before 30. Glen was only 26! I think Paterson was the next highly rated striker but he ended up fulfilling his potential with us. Albeit in a different position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
