Neil Woods
Remember him?

Neil Woods

Beat me to it!

 

[vancy]

Fabrice Fernandes
Dennis Setterington
The two South African lads we had around the end of 88/89

I doubt the South Africans qualify, as they were only trialists. Thomas Madigage died in 2012 in a car accident aged 41.

 

[Installer]

Colin West - Souness's 1sr signing
Neil Woods - Souness's 6th signing (after Woods, Butcher and Roberts)

 

[Rangerstillidie]

James Beattie
Marcus Gayle
Alejandro Bedoya

 

[tuddie]

Gael Bigirimana
Harris Vikic
Remie Streete

 

[Hawftimepie]

Alan Lowing

 

[pelem]

Jeffers and gayle couldnae score a goal for RANGERS back then even if your life depended on it.

 

[neilyblueboy07]

Neil Murray. Yes I know he did play a fair number of games over maybe 5 years with us, but I can't remember a single thing he did on the pitch.

Scored in the '93 SC Final if I'm not mistaken

 

[neilyblueboy07]

Tom Cowan
Chris Vinniecombe
Alan Gow

 

[55degreesnorth]

Always remember an interview with Durrant and he said we’d been watching him for a few years!!!!!! which makes signing him even more bizarre!

Ortiz wasn't that bizarre on the face of it, he was a first team regular in a decent enough if unspectacular la liga side who was a winger/wing back pinging in crosses and chipping in with the odd goal. Just didn't work out for him but he had a decent career.

 

[MagneticFields]

Kevin McDonald, made a few loan appearances under Souness

suppose bizarre was the wrong word to use,but just a bit annoying that he was pretty bollocks yet we watched him for ages! That’s football I suppose

 

[The Harbour Master]

John Morrow
Bob Davidson

 

[shawlandsbear]

Scored in the '93 SC Final if I'm not mistaken

Also missed when clean through on goal at the piggery! Keeper saved and miko buried it in a 4-2 pumping

 

[shawlandsbear]

Another player that people forget about is bedoya

 

[bluewonder]

Loads of players under souness in 87/88 who signed played a handful of games and hardly featured again. Avi Cohen, John McGregor, Ian McCall, David Kirkwood, Trevor Francis.

 

[Big Buff]

Phil Bardsley

Scored a cracking free kick for us v Falkirk

 

[Kirbybear]

Moses Ashikodi

Moses Ashikodi - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Ashikodi played a few games for my English team - York City.
Look at his list of clubs - has any player ever played for more?

 

[QueensferryCR3Bear]

Darren Fitzgerald
Thomas Kind Bendiksen

 

[Grimsdale]

Neil Murray. Yes I know he did play a fair number of games over maybe 5 years with us, but I can't remember a single thing he did on the pitch.

Scored in a Cup final v Aberdoom at the Glitterdome..

 

[Grimsdale]

Billy Urquhart.

 

[TheProdfather]

Luigi Riccio

 

[im_a_good_bluenose]

Dave Macfarlane. Won a medal in the skol cup then basically vanished
Remi Street
Shane Ferguson
Kevin mbapu
Gael Bigirimana

Just an utter waste of money

 

[Beebs77]

Theo Snelders.

Mind Mccoist kicked his face aff when he played with the sheep...

 

[Rudiger]

Our most obscure player hasn't been mentioned yet.....

 

[chickenhawk]

Thomas Madegage and Augustine Makalakalakalane . 2 guys from South Africa on trial in the late 80s don't think they ever got a game.

 

[ICA_86]

Not sure many posters understand what ‘obscure’ actually means.

 

[RenfrewBear72]

Dan Eggen - 0 apps and part of a treble. Legend.

 

[Ian Redford81]

Tom Cowan
Chris Vinniecombe
Alan Gow

Best mé tó it with Tom Cowan although he played his part until injured in league decider against the sheep

 

[Ian Redford81]

Scott Fraser
Eric Ferguson
Billy McKay
From early eighties iam sure Billy McKay was on bench for 81 league Cup final and only other memory of him he sadly had to retire and he had a testimonial against new Zealand

 

[Ted Rangers]

Jerome Rothen takes a bit of beating.

I forgot he played for us, but what a player he looked at Monaco. 13 caps for France isn't bad.

 

[Super-Ally216]

Federico Nieto

 

[Growler]

Umar Sadiq. What was all that about?

The amount of folk on here who had “a feeling” about him was funnier than his first touch.
