Players Who Didn't Quite Make It?

[ScouseBlueBoy]

Branch - Royle hailed him as the next Fowler and even gave him the number 23
Jon O'Connor - Royle hailed him as a future england captain. I don't know what happened to him, but when he first played for us, i thought he was quality
Tony Grant - Royle hailed him as the next Cantona!

Based on that Royle sounds like he should be on RAWK making similar proclamations about their squad fodder.

Joe Royle has the biggest head I've ever seen.

Joe was trying to up the value of the players in readiness for the bids!

Martin Murray we beat off virtually every first division club at the time (pre pl) for his signature was supposodly going to be the greatest thing from Ireland since George Best

I think Whittle got moved on as a result of the Holly Lodge School Girl ( for then ) scandal
Husband in his prime was unplayable, as good as Ronaldo but never seemed the same player after Dave MacKay dealt to him
