New ex-players (and managers) thread

[City Fan]

His record wasn't as bad as made out. He spent about £12m and we recouped half of that through sales of those players. And he left us with Schmeichel.

Yep - thankfully wages, signing on fees and agents fees were all free.

 

[City Fan]

His transfer record was only second to Peter Taylor in awfulness.

It still works out as a very good deal. How much has Schmeichel been worth to us?

Martin Allen?

Christ I’d forgotten all about him.

A lot more than Beckford, Paintsil and Mills were worth to us.

He was one of the only managers the owners sacked prematurely

I think it's fair to say he's not a big Leicester fan.

I'm sure he'd change his tune if he got offered a pundit job because he played for us a few times, IIRC he played like he didn't want to be here as well

 

[camberwell fox]

I can’t even recall him, just shows the level of mark he left. Tosser.

 

[Brown Nose]

It seems like he's about as useful at handling money as he was right wingers.

I cannot be doing with whiny ex-players blaming others for pissing their great start in life up the wall.
