At the risk of embellishing this....didn't he: 1. Get photo'd with a Town shirt? 2. Actually sign a contract? | |

He didn't sign a contract - merely 'stated' he would be joining us. | |

It wasn't a trial. He was at Feyenoord and earmarked to replace Muhren as he was linked with a move away but ended up staying another year and so we didn't sign Gullit. Gazza had a trial as a youngster and we turned him down. | |

I actually bumped into the Burnley chairman on a train a few years after that happened. He reckoned Austin's decision was purely down to him having worked with Eddie Howe previously. Money-wise he said there wasn't a lot in it, just that the two had worked together at Bournemouth and had got on well. | | | |

You're confusing him with Ian Crook. | |

He was at Haarlem. A Town scout was sent to watch someone else, a goalkeeper I think, but Gullit caught the eye. As per other posts, at the time we already had three overseas players - Muhren, Thijssen and D'Avray, who was yet to get a British passport - so it wasn't taken any further. | | | |

It was during his talks at Portman Road that his dad, who was with him, took a mobile call from Howe. The rest is history. Fact. | | | |

Ah! Was it Feyenoord he moved to from Haarlem? I'm sure I read somewhere that Muhren may have been moving on and that would have triggered us going in for Gullit. | |

Trying to remember some of the 'links' when Marcus was first here and actually spending money with jim- there was a Greek striker I think can't remember his name now but certainly had heard of him at the time? | | | |

Charisteas I think, I believe he scored the winner in Euro 2004 final but might be wrong on that one. | |
