Lemonade Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 i've no idea.... yeah canniga was a decent signing. it must be tough for south americans to perform in scotland given the climate plus the opposition in the SPL more often than not just bully them and they dont like it up em you know!Plus the pre-match meal of deep fried pie and chips is probably a bit of a culture shock!

Guest DustyDeviada Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Somebody on Donstalk went to work in Manchester and Leon Mike was one of his workmates. He made a promising start though, scored a cracker in his first game, and I remember him scoring against the Huns as well in a 2-2 draw.Funny to think that he used to play in the Man City reserves with Shaun Wright Phillips.Who was Michael Bird?

delboy Posted March 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 who was that bulgarian fella who played for aberdeen just after world cup 94??? cant remember his name or indeed whether he was any good or not for the dons!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DustyDeviada Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Kiriakov? Thought he was prettygood considering the amount of fags he smoked in numerous bars around Aberdeen. He's already been mentioned though.His drinking buddy was John Inglis, who's also been mentioned, but deserves a special award for being the worst player to sign for the Dons TWICE. Didn't even get a game the second time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delboy Posted March 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 thats the fella!!!! i remembering him being quite awesome for bulgaria in the world cup in 94. looked more like a fisherman than a footballer i always felt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DustyDeviada Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 I remember him being quite drunk in Paramount most nights of the week, looking more like the Marlboro man than a professional athelete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Who was Michael Bird?Steve Paterson signed him if memory serves, from Bolton I think. Made a couple of appearances off the bench.In fact a quick google search reveals that we signed him in the summer of 2003. he played three matches for us all off the bench, failed to score and we sold him in the January transfer window to Glenavon in the Northern Irish Premier League, who play at the luxurious 5000 capacity Mourneview Park in County Aramgh. Who were then relegated that season. He was utter shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camie Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Tomas BrolinLeeds United signed him for 4.5million. Forever injured and became overweight. He played 25 games in 18th months and then was free transferred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Bosko Balaban (I think) for Aston Villa. Cost about 6 million and played a total of 0 league games for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benji Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Seb Rozenthal - Gers, cost 4.5 mill and played about 3 games. Brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam 45 Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 regi blinker - wicked dreadlocks, dreadful player!!!Scored a great own-goal for the Dons in a 3-2 win though. Greame Souness once signed a player who he thought was George Weah's brother. He even played him in one game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HateEvent Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Given the price paid and what he's done thus far - Shevchenko to Chelsea for 30 mil wasn't the best thing ever... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester1470 Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 thought he might have played more than that - certainly remember the name. i never for the life of me why scottish clubs would sign chinese players who (probably) dont speak the lingo must be near impossible for them to adapt to life in glasgow and the SPL. mind u cant think of any other chinese players who've signed for scottish clubs.Didn't you sign a chinese player as Rzngers when we were playing FM2007 online CheersStuart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nature_1 Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Fan Zhiyi (sp?) played for dundee for a bit....he was a defender.he was the first chinese player in scotland, i think.didnt last too long either.heres some more blasts from the past; ulrik laursen, magnus hedman, juninho, momo sylla.....
