JWL Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Wee mention for Antti Niemi here. Back in 2000 an well known ex-poster on heres laddie who was about 8 at the time was in the Sick Kids with a pretty serious illness. It was around the Stuttgart tie and my mate couldn't travel to Germany. His lad was still in the hospital come the return leg and a couple of days after that game both Antti and Juanjo paid a visit to the wee man, with Antti handing over his shorts and gloves from the home tie v Stuttgart. Both stayed for a couple of hours playing table football and watching re-runs of the 98 cup final. Top bloke................and Juanjo off course.

1874robbo Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I realise they got ?4 million for him but Gattuso could still be up there with their poor decisions. Is that figure right? i thought Advocaat had let him go for a lot less than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aberhill jambo Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 when they tapped...er... let ritchie know that they wanted him in the press. I read an article titled: Rangers boss tells Ritchie to sit tight and he will rescue him from his Tynecastle hell. Ritchie sat tight and well... I bet he felt really rescued. Went on to sign for Man City and make a million bet he felt right bad about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamdub Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I'll add a Daniel Prodan and a Seb Rozenthal to that list. The best ever, never played and contaminated his body with the blue jersey and picked up a wedge, I also think he was bought for a good few bob as well, happy days.

Sydney from Sydney Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Big Slim. We bought him from Rangers and sold him back for a profit and bought him back again. Great defender, him and Levein were as good as any defensive partnership we've had in the last 50 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenn quagmire Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Is that figure right? i thought Advocaat had let him go for a lot less than that. I'm sure the fee was between ?1.1m and ?1.2m. The Dutch general waited until Barry Ferguson won Player Of The Year a few years later to claim he let him go because it was between him Ferguson for the future midfield General role. Typical Advocaat pish. On the original thread Prodan, Rozenthal, Jeffers, Ostenstad, the list is endless over the last 25 years but it's coming back to bite them in the arse now.

Mr Brightside Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 I'm proud to say John Colquhoun was my rector. Same here for a few years. Then it was that idiot from the green party, Robin something or other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broxburn Jambo Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Dave McPherson TWICE! I was thinking the very same thing. He was twice the player for us, I always felt because he got more respect from his own fans when at Tynecastle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DETTY29 Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Time will tell I suppose. But Webster will be back in the Scotland sqaud as senior CH very soon. My Rangers 'mates' can't believe Webster doesn't get ahead of Weir, Broadfoot, McCulloch and are now saying that the 'not having the mentality to play for the OF' is wearing thin - it's as if the club maybe wants players signed from other Scottish clubs to fail. If Smith goes out again without winning a trophy then it does reek of biting off your nose to spite your face. Richard Gough back to win 10 in a row. Yikes.

bighusref Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Lets not forget Oleg Salenko, Basile Boli, Bo Anderson and Peter Van Vossen A common misconception, but for some reason it annoys me! Erik Bo Andersen: Played 23 and scored 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
