Forssell denied failing the medical or even taking one, probably on Birmingham FC's orders. Then Alan Irvine stepped in and told him to stop his lies.

Not with us? He failed one at Stoke though. We didn't even get that far I don't think.

Royston Drenthe's urine broke the testing machine

Only at Everton do players actually fail medicals, let's be honest no one fails medicals these days. Mo Diame's medical at Wigan showed he had a heart defect and they still signed him

Ian Durrant if he'd joined permanently,his knees were goosed,initially I wanted us to sign him even so,instead of dunc up to the derby game he couldn't have given a flying one!!

He never failed a medical, we tried to change the payment terms last minute and the Dutch don't like that sort of thing.

Thought it was down to scar tissue build up in his knee

Did Riquelme fail his medical? There was a reason he didn't sign on the dotted line :Blink:

Don't think he got to the medical stage with us.

I remember getting a text in School that said he was meeting with Moyes but Moyes wasn't going meet his demands, 80k-ish a week I think it was.

Was rather gutted.

No, we tried to pull a fast one. His medical records was sent to us and with the full details of his operation we knew what would find before the medical took place.

If you agree a deal with the Dutch, don't try and change it they will just pull out like they did with us.

Too much?

I have heard that both Reid and Gray did, but Kendall signed them anyway.

Interestingly, knowing they would in all probability lose their place in the team given the quality in the squad at the time, both kept quiet about any niggles they had.
