Tore Andre Flo! ?12.5 million from Chelsea to Glasgow Rangers they totally mugged us for a super sub! Dick Advocaat should have been shot for that signing!

Also Daniel Prodan. ?2.5 million and while thats peanuts in todays money, he was signed injured and never played one game for us. Not even a fucking reserve match!

What about that guy that Graeme Souness was duped into taking to Southampton. The guy who pretended to be George Weah's cousin? Though not sure he was technically a signing or a transfer, but he was god awful anyhow!

Going back quite a bit, Peter Marinello signing for Arsenal wasn't the most successful transfer in history.

remember the fella who pretended to be weahs cousin

souness never had time to trial him and put him straight on with 20minutes to go and was soon horrified to see that the bloke didnt have a clue what he was doing.

took him off after 10minutes
