When was the last time we made a signing that no one reported about beforehand and no one ITK seemed to leak? Just wondering if anyone actually knows of a player that no one knew about.

Sometimes I wish that our announcements were a complete surprise

 

[JOEYDEE]

Fatty Foukes

 

[Paisley Blade]

Chris Guthrie was a surprise, in more ways than one.

 

[Carlton Blade]

Zivkovic and Retsos?

 

[Revolution]

Filip Uremovic seemed to come in completely out of the blue.

Zivkovic and Retsos?

I remember hearing about Retsos not long before the announcement

Jags. Everyone thought it was Maupay.

There was a lot of unseen work there.

Filip Uremovic seemed to come in completely out of the blue.

I liked him

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

Dan Burn.

Might be wrong but MGW seemed to come out of nowhere. Only a loan though.

Bobby Davidson what a debut

Adrian Littlejohn.

He was just there warming up.

All the folks around me were just looking and saying 'who's he?'

I was on holiday and read the team in the paper the following day after his debut v Southampton. I thought "who the hell is that"?

 

[Rochdaleblade]

Darren Bullock?

 

[Silent Blade]

I remember my dad telling me about Doc Pace's debut on Boxing Day 1957 (he scored) and he was signed on Xmas Eve before the papers could report the signing. During the warm up before the game many in the crowd were saying "who is our number 9?"

Wasn't it Harland Monday 27th August 2023?
Oops sorry my DeLorean is acting up.
