Players we had and lost

Hi

Now I could have got this all wrong but I can't help notice that we need good players in certain positions yet we have let players go for not massive sums of money that have went elsewhere and proved to be worth far more than we got and now we need quality in those positions.

Examples I would give would be Ricardo Fuller and Anti Niemmi

or have I got it completely wrong?

thanks

Those would have been back in the days of the Pie where we needed the money though, so not really sure how relevant your point is. Since then we have got fair amounts for everyone we've sold.

 

IMO.

 

Edit: and the two of them have been away for a long time, are you suggesting we should have kept them all that time? Only Elvis/Robbie were here for a long time since then.

 

And gordon wouldn't have come through the ranks to be sold for ?9m.

Some one once told me we had James McFadden on are books as a youth.

 

Is that true!!!

 

Yes. Think there was a bit of a falling out with his dad and one of the coaches or something, and his dad took him elsewhere.

Hmmm, I think the ?11+ million we got for Roman Bednar and Craig Gordon says otherwise.

Yes.

 

IIRC, there was an issue surrounding the Milk Cup (POSSIBLY discipline) and McFadden left the club.
