Had to copy this...


Recommended Posts

Most of Big Eck's signings.

 

I give you: Jose-Karl Pierre-Fanfan

 

Signed to a fanfanfare, but soon 'fell out of favour'.

 

As far as I know, the only player with a double double-barreled name to play in the top flight in Scotland.

Eck signed plenty of good players.

 

He just suffered from being the manager while our budget was quartered.

 

 

People should be eternally grateful for how much he won while doing that.

The later years under him were grim. He did well with Advocaat's players initially though. The fact he keeps getting sacked and can't find work anymore says it all really.

There's the double-barrelled guy who went from the D'ited to celtic but I know what you mean. It's rare and certainly no real double-barrelled toff.

 

Gary McKay-Steven; but Jose-Karl Pierre-Fanfan beats him by one hyphen.

Mladenovic, Eggen, Djordjic, Ostenstad, Emerson, Capucho, Gavin Rae, Nieto, Maniero, Bernard, Jeffers, Ashikodi.

 

We wasted a lot of money under Eck.

Im not saying hes a good manager but dont forget he won a league with entirely his own players as well.

 

Bu the end the cuts he was facing were brutal.

 

Eck was our first manager since the 80s to be a selling manager.
