calscot 0 Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 I wouldn't mind him and a few others going to Birmingham and having a bit of a Scottish team in the Prem. I'd like to see Eck do well down there. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but for a change it would be nice to see a manager go somewhere and be a bit more adventurous and pick out other signings rather than the safe option of players he has had previously. WS went to Everton and took Gough, Gazza, Cleland etc. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WS went to Everton and took Gough, Gazza, Cleland etc. I can see your point m8 but WS obviously liked them as players m8 and thought they would do well for him or thought they were better than what was there. Why take a chance on someone you don't know enough about, i.e. different cultures etc when you know some people/characters inside out i.e. gough, sometimes they pay off, a lot of the times they don't but that's the gamble I suppose. it never done him much good down there saying that 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 You'd rather he went out on a limb for players like Capucho, Emerson, Mladenovich and Ostenstaad? Or do you think he's learned to go for players he knows better? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do you think he's learned to go for players he knows better? Funny thing is, only one of those players was HIS signing. And he was only signed because Mr Murray wouldnt spend another �£200,000 to get Tim Cahill and so he went for his plan B Mladenovich, who to be fair was gash. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice move not getting Tim Cahill.... would Cahill have come though ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyharley 5 Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Cahill was set to come, all we had too do was pay 1.5 million but Murray thought it to be too big a risk. The other 3 mentioned were 100% not Ecks signings 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
