Hard question to answer.
Just reading this;

Leon Jeanne described as Wales' most promising footballer. Are there any in the same category? Doesn't matter if they forfilled any potential, but biggest potential at the time at Cardiff City.
Gary O'Neill, didn't do to bad in his career but thought he would do a lot more
I can't believe they ended up in court. They look like such a nice couple of lads :hehe:
Judge Philip Harris-Jenkins described the defendants as “three idiots”. :hehe:
To quote Mr Lahey from The Trailer Park Boys, "The Shit apples don't fall to far from The Shit Tree."
Lee Jarman was supposed to be a huge star in the making when he was playing for us at 17.Quote:

Just for you CB :hehe:
Steve Gammon-tremendous player.He tamed all the best creative midfielders of the day until Denis Law broke his leg.Never recovered from that.Quote:

the Ball stuck to his boot and he had bags of speed ( no puns intended, but what the hell, later i am sure he upgraded that to coke )
a real shame and a real waste
Ramsey has done ok :thumbup:
Zohore will go on to be one of the most sought after strikers in Europe.
Well done RS for bringing him in.
I thought he was foisted on Slade by Vincent Tan?Quote:

It was Tan's European connections who pointed Zohore in our direction. Slade was responsible for signing the garbage that was Revell.Quote:

Your theory that VT picks and chooses what player plays for what club is laughable. He may sign the cheques and tell the players to shoot more often but to say he foisted signings is crap unless you can prove it.Quote:

I haven't said that Vinnie picks and chooses what player plays for each club. Etien Velikonja was definitely a Tan signing, one that Malky didn't want. Back in the day, Glenn Loovens was brought to Cardiff by Peter Risdale and apparently Dave Jones wasn't a fan at the beginning.Quote:

I doubt very much that Russell Slade is knowledgeable about fringe young players on the continent, neither do I think our current boss would be, either.
Many contributors to this thread have attempted to correct your lunacy in giving Slade all the credit for signing a player most of us reckon he wouldn't even have heard of before he came to the club, though you are only interested in trying to twist what I say, ignoring the rest, like the troll you are.
I "reckon" RS got more of an idea than the experts on here.Quote:

He f ucked up a young Lee's brain big time, did olde BACK POCKET Frank.
Ridsdale signed Loovens and even admitted in the paper that Jones didn't want him. Which Gordon? Gavin and Dean were Cork signings.Quote:
