Stuart Slater - thought that he would be a good signing but ultimately wasn’t that great for us.
Jason Scotland - ok not the greatest of strikers but thought that he was quite skilful and under appreciated by a lot of fans. |  | | |

David Healy - was wanted by about 3 managers of ours. Linked with him every window. We eventually get him on loan and I always forget he ever played for us.
Paul Anderson for the other. Had no expectations other than he'd be a squad player but he did well. |  |

Chopra
Wright (David)
Not sure Wright was under the radar but his link up with Walters down the right was excellent. Underrated. |  |

1) Paul Taylor - Think he cost us like 2.5m and was convinced he would be a star having watched him at Pboro
2) Delaney | | | |

1. Slater. So much hype, so little end product (Albeit he had a lot of dross around him)
2. DJ Campbell. 10 goals in 17 games then seemed to vanish. |  |

1. Stuart Slater.
2. Shefki Kuqi.
I might have misinterpreted your part 2 here but I was underwhelmed by Shefki when we signed him.
The first answer is unambiguous mind. [Post edited 29 Jun 2023 20:49]

Slater : Along with it seems many others bought into Lyall telling us what a 'special' player he was. In the end he was OK to be fair, but nowhere remotely near special.
Tarricco : Makeweight in the Paz deal? After his first game when he was run ragged and looked like a rabbit in the headlights (Bolton?) I never expected to see him in a Town shirt again. He could be a new thread, worse debut from a quality signing. |  |

Here's a couple for the old timers like me....
1... Gerry Creaney. One goal, never gave interviews and didn't want to be here.
2... Keith Andrews. Goalscoring midfielder. Only bright light in one of many dim seasons. |  | | |

1 - Harbey
(I was high when he was signed, and I was having hopeful hallucinations that he could play football. Ultimately I was somewhat disappointed.)
2 - Taricco |  |

Read reports that made him sound like he was going to be a different class.
2. Clive Baker.
Played 2nd fiddle to big Craig F but was always dependable and an excellent saver despite being 4ft tall |  | | |

It’s intriguing how many of us are still scarred by Slater, almost 30 years later. There was that televised wonder goal he scored for west ham that got us all excited. And at the time, us spending 750k was a big deal. It all sounded so promising…
And in reality he wasn’t that terrible at all and we’ve hundreds of inferior players since him. But if you don’t deliver on hype, you’ll always be a disappointment. Even if that hype wasn’t of your own making. | |
