Lovely article. Still feel as though he will be brought home one day.

Sounds like competition. His mum is my neighbour.

I doubt it Boofter, you would have mentioned it before now.

Another vastly overrated player from a time where we were absolutely gash, he was no better than Pawlett.

1st time or second time?

Second.

[The Boofon]

 

Second.

Disagree. A superstar in a pish team.

Mind getting humped away to Killie and belting out 'We only have 1 player, 1 player, We only have 1 player' the whole second half.

 

We were shite. He was not.

First time round potential genius lost in the era of walternomics.

 

Second time round showed massive maturity and carried an otherwise pish team for at least two years.

 

Owes us nothing, that's for sure.

 

Put pawlett into the current Ross county team and expect them to win the league and I'll accept your point.

Daniel Downie is a good lad. Good read.

The Coventry move was always a weird one, they were gash

Did he score an OG against Man Utd?

Eion jess is like a flower, a pretty little flower that blooms in the spring.

Very, very good point. Great word - walternomics. We are still somewhat feeling those effects yet but we will have the last laugh and it may come at the end of this season....

Much of what I say is genius, as my old English teacher used to say.

The 30 yard goal against rangers is my favorite goal of all time. Just the sweetest strike you'll ever see.

Aye portsoy must be short of candidates surely.

You clearly haven't heard about Boofons goal.

Not as good as Edsers

[Ke1t]

We've a pretty bad recent record in bringing legends back.

 

Let's no.

Incorrect.

[King Street Loon]

An outstanding talent.

The leg break against Clydebank curtailed him somewhat and he v then oddly chose to move to Coventry. Always felt a move to mainland Europe would have suited him more.

As someone else mentioned previously, he showed great maturity in his second spell with us. Great player in a really fucking pish period for the club.

If he was able to play now he'd thrive in a Derek McInnes team.

[ollie1903]

World class.

[Chewie37]

Didn't he leave when Kombouare started playing? He probably realised how pish he was
