Strangest Player We Were Meant To Sign

[patvandenhowdareyou]

Just posted this in the transfer thread, but a pretty good new thread methinks, Who are the most unlikeliest of players we have been seriously in for? Evidence that we were interested would be good! And here is the yard dog Terry Hurlock saying that we were about to sign him before he moved to Rangers

I also have a vague recollection that we messed around trying to sign tore andre flo for quite some time

Remembering the presser where Everton had to tell the press that the transfer wasn't happening, even after he trained with the 1st team.

Anton Peterlin...oh wait we actually signed him from the fourth tier of American football.

Murky waters with that one.
A double signing from the club involved planned, Flo and some other no mark. That much of a no mark I can't remember his name.
Some dubious adjustments of fees went on so some add on payments could be avoided. In the end Everton were rumbled and the deal collapsed. Royle and Peter Johnson at the helm.

From what I know we only got Peter Beardsley by letting the
RS have a free run on Saunders

 

[Huyton Layne]

Weren't we after Adam Johnson, he's a bit strange to say the least.

 

[Bluebonic]

Virgil van dijk, the liverpool player! :/

 

[arch stanton]

i was gutted when we didn't get dion dublin, i thought he'd have been pretty decent for us

 

[Tigger]

Robbie Savage the utter trumpet.
