Flexx Posted 23 March 2007 Share Posted 23 March 2007 Hume. We were only signing old past it players on free transfers, and then comes along Hume for around 750K. Surprising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royston. Posted 23 March 2007 Share Posted 23 March 2007 Sir Les remains the highest profile signing in our clubs history in my humble opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thracian Posted 23 March 2007 Share Posted 23 March 2007 Davie Gibson for £25,000 or so from Hibernian. That was over 40 years and the sooner we find someone else who is vaguelly good enough to clean his boots the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet you followed his career at Hibs very carefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Fox Posted 23 March 2007 Share Posted 23 March 2007 Rab Douglas From Glasgow Celtic (Summer of 2005) At the time when we signed him Craig Levein was quoted saying 'By signing Rab this shows the rest of league that we mean business' I had high hopes for us that season. Especially when Momo Sylla had followed his former team mate south of border to join the Scottish reject revolution that was unfolding at the Walkers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smudge Posted 23 March 2007 Share Posted 23 March 2007 Allan "Sniffer" Clarke..............the surprise was that we paid 150,000 which was a British record transfer fee as I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thracian Posted 23 March 2007 Share Posted 23 March 2007 Sir Les remains the highest profile signing in our clubs history in my humble opinion. Why's that? For high profile I can think of Frank Worthington, Stan Collymore, Derek Dougan, Gary Lineker to give him a run for his money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not getting this are you, how was Gary Linekar high profile when we signed him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Fox Posted 23 March 2007 Share Posted 23 March 2007 Why's that? For high profile I can think of Frank Worthington, Stan Collymore, Derek Dougan, Gary Lineker to give him a run for his money. Banks, Shilton and Weller to that list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fez of Mahrez Posted 23 March 2007 Share Posted 23 March 2007 :laugh: Lineker and Shilton high profile signings! Oh dear. Predictable one but Collymore for me. Such a buzz about the place when we signed him. We've always signed idiots but at least they used to be quality footballers too. At the time I was quite pleased with the signings of Darren Eadie and Lee Morris. Poor bastards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Fox Posted 23 March 2007 Share Posted 23 March 2007 Shilton was one of my hero's Itlalia 90, i know he wasn't playing for Leicester at the time and should have least saved one penalty in his career but still...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phube Posted 23 March 2007 Share Posted 23 March 2007 Shilton was one of my hero's Itlalia 90, i know he wasn't playing for Leicester at the time and should have least saved one penalty in his career but still...? But he wasn't a high profile 'signing' he was a schoolboy at LCFC, so when we signed him no-one knew who he was!!! Except perhaps his parents...

Guest Gist Posted 23 March 2007 Share Posted 23 March 2007 There hasn't been a pleasantly surprising signing since I've been following Leicester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
