avfc1982am Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Alex Mcleish very closely followed by Jermaine Jenas - £45,000 a week, season long loan, 3 appearances! Argue with that?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voinjama Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I am surprised no one has said Heskey so far. I am not saying this is my answer to the question, but I thought many would say him considering his cost, quality of performance and the fact that so many on this forum ridiculed his performances. And for the person who said Carson, that was 2007, so more then 5 years ago. Finally did someone really say bent - ridiculous. My answer is makoun 1st, heskey 2nd.

TezzRexx Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Heskey for me. Imagine if we'd bought Bent or another goal scorer instead at the same time... Followed closely by Ireland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NurembergVillan Posted March 28, 2013 Moderator Share Posted March 28, 2013 Ireland, fee + wages is so far just shy of an eye watering £19m . Jaysus fackun H man How did you get to that figure? I'm asking because that figure might be a bit low (depending on the numbers you've used). Most folks believe his wage is being subsidised by Manchester City but I have it on reliable information that we're paying him the full hit of £75k per week.

CI Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I worked on 68k a week x 3 years = £10.6m + £8m fee = £18.6m For that we have 1 PL goal and 2 assists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaslash Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Was there a game where Ireland, Makoun and Beye were on the bench or playing? That would have to be the worst combo. If not I go for Beye and Shorey vs Wigan 0-2 with Makoun for solo effort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulfromsutton Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I have two answers WORST SIGNING - Heskey. We needed a goal scorer to finish in the top four we got him. WORST VALUE FOR MONEY - Makoun/Ireland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_Villain Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 For me, its the roll of a dice between Heskey, Makoun and Hutton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danceoftheshamen Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Heskey - destroyed a promising team that was on course to finish top 4 & was scoring quite freely....Until he arrived.. What oh what was O'Neill thinking?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 The most frustrating one for me was Curtis Davies. Solely because Martin O'Neill sold Gary Cahill (who was turning into a very promising defender) for 5m, and bought Davies for 10m. Awful bit of business. The myth that is MON is slowly being found out. It would have happened quicker if the media hadn't had a love him with him for the last 10 years. Oh, and Reo Coker, Heskey and Beye. Take your pick really I suppose. I'm not too opposed to the Ireland signing personally as I thought he was a good talent, It just hasn't worked out.

mikeyp102 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 No4- Nicky Shorey - Crap player and bad attitude. . Thought he was just crap didn't know he had a bad attitude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 (edited) Hereford Utd CC2 aug 23 2011. Makoun & Ireland start game Beye came on as sub. Doesn't get much better I also believe this was Makouns first and last start under McLeish and his last appearance for the club.

villarule123 Posted March 29, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted March 29, 2013 You may all say Ireland but our fans are the muppets that voted him our POTS last year. For what it's worth, Ireland by a country mile, I nearly wet myself when he won the award. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what it's worth, Ireland by a country mile, I nearly wet myself when he won the award. I still don't understand how he got that. I really don't. He was decent for half a season but the only real standout players last season were Stan and Given. Edited March 29, 2013 by Mantis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
