Gemmel Posted 15 May, 2017 Share Posted 15 May, 2017 Courtesy Of A Comment By Manuel On Another Thread. I am sure I am wrong with a couple of these, but a worrying trend if I am even 50% Right .... Alan McLaughlin David Hurst Delgardo Saganowski Ramirez Osvaldo Boufal I know I will have missed a few and that even some of those might not be correct, but we seem to have a much better record selling than buying the top crop.

John D Posted 15 May, 2017 Share Posted 15 May, 2017 Don't think Saganowski was that much. Jay Rod might have beeen for a while and isn't Gabbiadini now the record? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 15 May, 2017 Share Posted 15 May, 2017 Virgil was our top signing for a while, before Osvaldo it was Wanyama. Saganowski was only like 700k i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure I am wrong with a couple of these, but a worrying trend if I am even 50% Right .... Alan McLaughlin David Hurst Delgardo Saganowski Ramirez Osvaldo Boufal Delgardo wasn't a club record signing. He signed after record £4m signing Rory Delap and cost less. Sagnowski wasn't a record signing either, he didn't cost much in comparison to others signed before him. Jay Rodriguez became a Saints record signing in 2012 *****il Ramirez signed later that Summer), previously it was Rory Delap from 2001 to 2012.

Just looking at them, we've bought so much crap over the years. That Wayne Thomas transfer summed our club up back then, he was 500k value max...yet we splurge 1.5m on him. He wasn't even that good. Burnley then went and bought Clarke Carlisle for a couple of 100k iirc and ended up doing miles better than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGalpin Posted 16 May, 2017 Share Posted 16 May, 2017 Gabbiadini is the record transfer now, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergei Gotsmanov Posted 18 May, 2017 Share Posted 18 May, 2017 Alan McLaughlin - he was effin abysmal He did a good job down the road. I seem to remember that we had to pay a large instalment if he played 30 games and so he got to 29 games and then they would never play him. I don't think he was given a decent crack of the whip.

Miltonaggro Posted 18 May, 2017 Share Posted 18 May, 2017 August 1981 Dave Armstrong for £680,000. What a record signing that was, brilliant on the ball and something like forty league goals from midfield in his first three seasons. Should have got more than his three England caps.

What a record signing that was, brilliant on the ball and something like forty league goals from midfield in his first three seasons. Should have got more than his three England caps. Agree - great servant, money well spent. Other not so great record signings: Peter Osgood - he may have come good later but his first couple of months he was woefully unfit, and that didn't help our slump, culminating in relegation. Charlie George - not fit for the first season after signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie George - not fit for the first season after signing. Agree with that Badger. Both super footballers but just past their best, similar in many ways. I remember McMenemy at the time saying having CG at the club injured through most of his contract was 'like having a fabulous diamond locked in a safe to which you've lost the combination!' - we had to put up with just a few flashes of brilliance.
