Crusoe Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 There were three players we were looking at. Gumbs, George Isaac and Seretse Cannonier. Trialled all three and offered a deal to Gumbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simplythemostimportantkick Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 I seem to remember him coming over all Billy Big Bollox. He was named on the bench for what would have been home league debut but refused to play due to being too huge to fight for a place in our shitty league.

LT_SMASH Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Actually, I think Clyde Wijnhard should get an honourable mention when he nearly re-signed for us. Takes balls to have a contract in front of you and slip out the back door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wee Bobby Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Wilf Mannion from Middlesborough in late 40s. Current England international. £15,000 was the fee but we couldn't raise it. Equivelant now to 15mil. Quote from newspaper of the day."The greatest scheming inside forward of the day" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mannion money was in fact used to help purchase George Hardwick . Ref Oldham Athletic: A complete record . Floodlights came ten years later.

Yep, we spunked it on an England captain who got us promoted. Ok, we got relegated again the next season, but You can't have everything.
